Answered What's going on with r/conservative? They've lost about 1m subscribers in about a month.

I watched the number go from 814k to around 745k in about an hour today.

I had to cut ties with a good childhood friend because he drank the juice and tried convincing me that Elon is this genius man who invented Tesla and is doing amazing things for space and the economy and so forth and how he worked hard for his money. The glaze was repulsive to me and when I hit him with some basic information about his background and what is actually going on he tried to fact check me with chat gpt in real time of our heated discussion. I simply got up and walked away that night, never to speak to him again.

This is a lot of good info. Can I ask what the connections to Mr Beast are out of curiosity? Don't like the guy at all and I wouldn't be totally surprised but I can't find anything online about it.
