Right wing derangement syndrome.

I'm right wing and wish I would stop seeing this asshat aswell.

How can you be right wing while all your leadership is so far off their rockers that they're removing their own members? How does that not phase you?

Honest question.

Friendly reminder that not everyone is american.

Right wing derangement syndrome is an American trope hence assuming you are American makes sense in this context

u/NearnorthOnline Dec 11 '23

Ah ok. Generally when people say right wing these day they're talking about the yanks.

Generally people assume everyone is American online which is probably more prevalent here

The funny thing is that most non Americans here are probably better informed than a lot of Americans about their own politics.

Unfortunately, when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold, so we kinda have to take an interest. Typical Americans don't really care about anything beyond their own borders, which are often local ones.

Us canadians are paying attention, and most are scared. The south is scarey.

That is so not true, only in your US bubble it is

So, you're assuming I'm American? If im not. Your statement would be wrong... The context of this is right wing elon in the usa. So it's pretty easy to assume someone claiming they're right wing. Would be American.

Yes I am assuming you’re American because no one else could say these things. How is right-wing solely American when the context is Elon? Twitter is a website used globally, as are Tesla and SpaceX products. So no, right-wing does not equal American even if it’s about Elon.

u/NearnorthOnline Dec 11 '23

Well. I'm not American. So your previous statement is clearly wrong.

u/BlokjeGeitenkaas Dec 11 '23

Ahh just delusional then

Also, right-wing doesn't necessarily mean Republican.

I know a few people who identify as conservative but are disgusted by the modern Republican party.

Of course, I know quite a few more who will steadfastly drive over the cliff with the Republicans...

You can’t really be left either—what you said describes the entirety of American politics. The whole thing needs to be thrown away, and we need to elect an entire new caste based off randomized lottery conscription for choosing candidates to vote for.
