DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts | Employee has links to a deleted social-media account that advocated for racism and eugenics

Given their actions, it's been pretty clear that the racism and eugenics is their goal. Looks like one of them made it too explicit:

The deleted profile associated with Elez, who was embedded in the Treasury Department to carry out efficiency measures, advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act and backed a “eugenic immigration policy” in the weeks before President Trump was inaugurated.

These people are in favor of eugenics while their leader Musk looks like a macaque with a Cybertruck for a body.

He looks like a corpse that's been in the water for a bit.

Also like the roach skin suit guy from MIB

Hitler was small, had dark hair, brown eyes and just one testicle while talking about the master race of virile, blonde, blue-eyed tall people.

“You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” the account wrote on X in September, according to a Wall Street Journal review of archived posts. “Normalize Indian hate,” the account wrote the same month, in reference to a post noting the prevalence of people from India in Silicon Valley.

The user appeared to have a special dislike for Indian software engineers. “99% of Indian H1Bs will be replaced by slightly smarter LLMs, they’re going back don’t worry guys,” the user posted in December.

“Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool,” @nullllptr posted in July.

You were never cool buddy.

That's funny, because Indian-Americans have been an emerging MAGA group.

It's like telling junkies to stop using. For some reason they just don't.

Propaganda works. It doesn't fail. It is only ever stopped.

He was missing a few hundred billion dollars. With that, they'd have overlooked his hate just like they do with Musk

were they too qualified to work in this admin?

Confused about why he'd have to resign over that. I would have suspect that it's a workplace that welcomes those perspectives. Elon is a "free speech absolutist" after all.

Also, there was a whole thing about nazis getting fired for their marches. And the right absolutely blew up claiming free speech no matter what the off-the-job activities were.

Imagine being too racist for this regime? That’s a pretty high bar to reach.

Don't give him too much credit. He resigned right after a judge limited his access.

I'm surprised they thought this was resignation-worthy. His boss just did two Hitler salutes and the AG wants to make anti-racism illegal.

"That racism is too overt" seems to be a quaint GOP stance from times gone by.

Maybe it's more like "your inadequate cover-up demonstrates your inability to do the job of rewriting sensitive and confidential Treasury information without being caught."

They are a "meritocracy" after all.

The people Musk put in place to do this are all kids. He's choosing them because racists without any real professional network are completely dependent on his patronage, and are disposable when accountability for crimes starts to happen.

The Independent reports:

[Marko] Elez has reportedly been given administrator-level privileges [to Treasury Dept systems] that theoretically allow someone to change user permissions, delete and modify critical files that contain highly sensitive and confidential information.

He's a scapegoat so they can claim they aren't racist. The same ones who say Trump isn't racist cause he has black people in his cabinet.

I'm more surprised the little goon felt like it needed to resign. Isn't being a racist piece of shit half the job description?

So much for my appeal to their better judgement. Sounds like they're all gearing up for Holocaust 2: Eugenics Boogaloo.
