Opinion | Elon Musk Is Preoccupied With Something He Doesn’t Understand - eviltoast
Beyond the surface-level nonsense of the “great replacement” theory lies a more subtle issue.

There is no particular mystery to unravel around the political views of Elon Musk, the billionaire technology and social media executive. He is — and for some time, has been — on the far right wing of American politics. He is an enthusiastic purveyor of far-right conspiracy theories, using his platform on the website X to spread a worldview that is as extreme as it is untethered from reality.

    I agree. Not because we should leave him alone, but because he doesn’t matter.

    There are billionaires out there doing worse things for humanity. He’s just the most visible because he’s an idiot. The rest stay out of the spotlight intentionally.

      He’s turned Twitter into a cesspool of racist, alt-right pieces of shit. He is actively trying to destroy labor unions and the laws that protect him. Keep this asshole in the spotlight too because he believes that he’s rich enough to get away with it and his fanboys need to see him knocked down a peg.

      Nail on head. There are plenty of other billionaires that are also massive cunts.

      I’m quite frankly bored of Lemmy’s hate boner for Musk. I mean, I do get it, loads of people are absolutely seething that twitter isn’t their safe space anymore, but it’s time to move on.
