Cont: Musk buys Twitter II

i didn't say he was a nazi. he's not. he's not particularly bothered by them either, in fact he seems somewhat partial to them and their beliefs.

he's more like a reverse schindler
 
Musk isn't a nazi, he just supports whoever is currently blowing the most smoke up his arse. Right now that includes a lot of nazis, because they want to get (and stay) back on twitter.

He has no sincerely held beliefs beyond his own exceptional genius.

Sure they were.



Trump was the President of the United States. Muzzling him was preventing us from finding out what he really thought, which was counterproductive. Trump was permanently banned for 'severe violations of Twitter's Civic Integrity policy', following the Jan 6 insurrection. But the event had already happened so he couldn't do much harm - except to himself. Twitter denied him the rope he was using to hang himself with, allowing more conservatives to pretend that he wasn't so bad. That's part of the reason Trump is preferred by 49% of registered voters vs 43% for Biden, which is more than scary.

For some reason Trump can do, and get away with, anything he wants.

So to put some meat on this bone I looked for the most egregious way to view this.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023...musk-abhorrent-promotion-of-antisemitic-tweet

There seems no polite way to say this any more, but if people view Islam as a cult as I do, it is jarring to imagine Jews as promoting their opportunity to become majorities in cities like Brussels.
It sounds complex to me, and I would rather understand this via X than have no knowledge.

As an example from the article

"Musk ignited a firestorm of criticism when he praised a post on X, echoing the belief, common among white nationalists, that white people in Western countries are being “replaced” with an influx of immigrants from countries in the global south."

"The conspiracy theory that Jews are responsible for facilitating this “replacement” through support for immigration and resettling refugees is the same belief that motivated a far-right gunman who stormed a synagogue in the city of Pittsburgh and killed 11 worshipers.
That attack, which took place in October 2018, was the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in US history."

Why didn't you find an article that quoted the actual tweet?

"An X post Wednesday afternoon said: “Jewish communties (sic) have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” The post also referenced “hordes of minorities” flooding Western countries, a popular antisemitic conspiracy theory.

In response, Musk said: “You have said the actual truth.”"

And the superiority of the white race, how jews are trying to destroy the white race and so forth. He just generally seems to know that saying such things in public would be bad.

Possibly, but I don't think he believes, or even considers real, anything other than his own exceptional brilliance. If some people are praising him, then he'll agree with whatever they say because they think he's great, therefore they're right about that other stuff, that doesn't matter because it's not about him.

Maybe I'm being overly generous. Given where and when he grew up, it wouldn't exactly be surprising if he were a white supremacist, but I get the impression that he is more an Elon Musk supremacist. It's not that non-white people are inferior to white people, more that non-Elon Musk people are inferior to Elon Musk.

Those unter-Musken that praise him and show due deference are welcome in his garden for now. The rest of the gutter-slime are paedo's, groomers and infected by the woke mind virus. I mean, they must be, right? They can't (or won't) see how Musk is the cleverest and bestest.
 
it doesn't really make sense to me that he thinks he's so smart that he just agrees with every dumbass out there

i'm sure he was thinking he could tap into some of that right wing grift. trump caught lightning in a bottle aligning with these weirdos, elon tried and lost
 
You may be right. I don't get why he would need to grift though, it's not like he needs more money. Maybe it's some kind of compulsion or addiction to constantly increasing his financial worth?

Maybe he's just plain greedy?
 
of course he's greedy, anyone with a billion dollars is greedy.

but i couldn't guess what kind of micro penis-esque insecurities he must have to need that kind of attention. but he wants it really badly.

Jack Dorsey has several billion dollars after banning the most enlightened intellectuals from his platform.

Elon Musk has saved the west from the freakish ideology of Islamists and others.

Oh, he's always been a space cadet. Buys into just about every pseudo-scientific Silicon Valley "wellness" trend. Has a dietary regimen that's best described as dangerous. By most accounts he was naive, indecisive, and easily distracted as CEO. And then there's the true-believer crypto nonsense.

Still, he's much more credible as a proponent of free speech than Musk.

Specifically who are these "most enlightened intellectuals?" So far, you've given us every reason to believe that your criteria pretty much comes down to those who feed your biases, rather than anything that would remotely qualify in an objective sense.

Except for the part where he's done nothing even remotely close to that.

I'm generally against Islam, as I am with most religions. I certainly wouldn't mind meaningful reductions in its influence. What Musk has done, so far as I can tell, is nothing of the sort. What he's done is promote falsehoods and eased hate speech and worse in general.

Frankly, his contributions are arguably making things worse on that front, rather than saving any group from Islam, as any approach that relies upon using flimsy lies and hate would.

I would think he wants the adoration that Trump gets more than the grift. He has lost billions in his buying of twitter chasing adoration.
