Not left. Not right. Some sort of third, other position.
Not left, not right, but right. I am a very serious person. Never in my life have I critically examined the implications of private capital.
Fascists love to invent a new third type of thing that’s just right wing politics again. They do it every 20 years or so.
Even the nazis branded themselves as third position lol
Because they need to, their position is utterly incapable of delivering anything they promise. Right wing policy can only make things worse for everyone who isn’t already ultra wealthy, so they need to keep rebranding the exact same “more tax cuts for the rich and fewer labour and environmental laws” thing because if they don’t, even the CHUDs would eventually catch on that the people promising them to “fix” things are only making things worse.
Yeah, it’s absolutely a method of political theatre.
I do wonder if Musk is self-aware enough to realise that himself, or if he was prodded into this by people around him.
how do i infiltrate this party and then send him to gitmo after i win
20 years? Let’s be honest they do this at every opportunity they can and pretend they’re just a poor innocent left liberal that was forced to join rightists because “the left are too annoying these days”
I mean, on an individual level absolutely. But there’s a definite ebb and flow to the relevance of this framing within national politics. Last time it was big was the Tea Party bullshit about 15-20 years ago, and the time before that was the Clintonite Third Way and Ross Perot’s Reform party about 15 years or so before that.
new party claiming to be neither right nor left
It’s just fascism again
Oh shit, 3-axis political compass memes incoming.
Now luring people towards the right in more octants.
They're real, btw CW: cognitohazard
“we are neither left nor right”
invents z axis for polcomp brainrot
immediately invents an even more heightened right wing positionevery time lmao
not left not right forward~
looks inside
extremely right
I’m not right or left. We just need to move forward together
Average far-right fascist.
I’m choosing to believe that he couldn’t get the handle he wanted on the site he owns, so they added an “X” at the end like it’s an AIM screen name from 2003.

I already know this user has some really emo lyrics in their away message.
Couldn’t come up with an original idea if there was a gun to xæ1488’s head.
Surprised it wasn’t just the X party
AmericanHistoryX Party

And always twirling, twirling towards freedom!

He is an incredibly stupid person, and it’s truly insane how he’s managed to fail this far upward. I mean, even looking back at the history of PayPal, you can see these exact patterns repeating themselves (i.e. sees an opportunity to capitalize on a potential market, fails to capitalize on said market but still gets credit for putting his name on it).
Yet, your average Joe still believes he builds rockets, cars, and is in the lab creating brain computer interfaces.
God, I truly despise living in the west
Ulysses must be incredibly unwell or dead at this point
His entire schtick is weaselling himself into a position of power and capital, use the capital to leverage new positions while using the power in an attempt to ratfuck everything not in his personal ayn rand techno-fantasy.
Eventually the other people around him push him out, but by then he has taken all the credit, a fat stack of stock positions and, as I said before, leveraged all of that to find another unwilling host.
He is the ultimate parasitical manifestation of Neoliberalism.
Truly incomprehensible to me how the world treats grown adults (whose behavior is indistinguishable from children on the playground in year 4 or some shit) with any decency whatsoever. Capital is a Godamn shield
Ulysses must be incredibly unwell or dead at this point
UlyssesT stopped posting because UlyssesT has a kid to raise which is a lot of work
I think they meant because Ulysses hasn’t gone on any adventures lately.
Andrew Yang? Is that you?
Ah, the third position
Not right, not left hmmm so far-right?
close enough, welcome back Andrew Yang
I can’t believe they stole Andrew Yang’s silly-ass slogan
Wasnt Yang angling for some kind of deal with musk for a new party (or a spot on his old shitty one?)

Andrew Yang come get your payday from suing this dork.
DUDE THAT’S SO TRUE POLITICAL STANCES ARE JUST LIKE MATHEMATICAL VECTORSI’M FORMING THE UP PARTY
We’re replacing the political compass with an n-dimensional hypercube with axes for preferred ice cream flavors, interior decorating preferences, which direction you prefer to part your hair, your preferred DnD 5e class, the temperature you keep your bathwater, and whether you think the top keeps spinning in Inception.
Right Wing Rule
Up and forward are the real extremists. I’m starting the “Diagonal between up and forward” party, for the true centrism people want.
Remember when he said his new party will have “centrist” positions on social issues?
As I have my finger on the pulse of the common man, my own positions closely align with those of the majority of Americans.
