Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

Analysis Summary
USAID was rapidly dismantled by DOGE in early 2025, cutting staff from 10,000 to 300 and freezing foreign aid programs including malaria prevention and disease control. Boston University estimates over 700,000 deaths followed the funding freeze in the first year, with programs halted during critical seasons like malaria transmission peaks. The post inflates the death toll from 700,000 to 'millions' and uses inflammatory language ('incels,' 'hastened deaths') that frames management incompetence as intentional harm โ€” the underlying crisis is real, the characterization is hyperbolic.

โ— Mostly True
โ€œThe destruction hastened deaths of millions of childrenโ€
Boston University estimates 700,000+ deaths from funding cuts. 'Millions' is an overstatement. Causality is contested โ€” multiple factors influenced mortality.
