Musk

[TheHowieLama]

Time to break him away from the trad Tech cunts as the fella is far more than just dabbling in global politics/gubmints/power. 

Space X, Starlink, Twitter are all simultaneously for sale to the highest bidder of any kind and immediately unavailable at this nerds whim.

 

Elon Musk is showing the world how radicalized he has become.

The billionaire, one of the most consequential figures to walk the Earth, spent another weekend swimming in the right-wing fever swamps of X.

Musk equated moderating dangerous and appalling hate speech to “censorship,” bashed the press for legitimate reporting, assailed DEI programs without supporting evidence, skewered advertisers who fled the X platform last year and yet again gave credence to the racist Great Replacement theory, among other things.

To those not fluent in the intricacies of right-wing media, some of what Musk said may have sounded bizarre or even foreign. But in the right-wing fever swamps, where Musk is now deeply entrenched, these are the issues that animate the masses.

The erratic businessman raged against the “woke mind virus” and said its “goal” is “the destruction of America,” agreed with a user who wrote “Fake News is the Enemy of the People,” said the press is “basically the [Joe] Biden cheering squad,” accused the news media of “lying” about Donald Trump’s “blood bath” comments, called NPR a “nice version of Pravda,” alleged Google “manipulate[s] their search results with left wing bias,” said the January 6 insurrection was “not a ‘bloodbath’ by any definition,” and argued that if there is not a “red wave” in November, “America is doomed.”

 

In effect, Musk has become self-radicalized on the very website that he was forced to purchase for $44 billion, sliding deeper into the darkest and most unsavory corners of the platform that has served to only reinforce his own worldview with an echo chamber of conspiracy theorists and ego-stoking sycophants that regularly fawn at his every move no matter how outrageous or preposterously false.

All of it dished up by an algorithm designed to regurgitate it right back to him. Unfortunately for the rest of the world, Musk is hell bent on taking everyone else down there with him.

 

Be interesting to see how the US gubmint handles Twitter in the wake of any Tik Tok sale.

Maybe more interesting in fact if there is no sale.

 

As for elections here - this is far more direct than anything Murdoch has ever done. 

Saying one party needs a wave or the country is doomed? As the owner of the biggest media outlet, on that very media outlet

 

[redheart]

So a born rich South African whose father had interested in slave labour emerald mines is a piece of shit?

 

No surprise there

[Fugitive]

The twat sounds like he belongs in Brian Fantana’s cologne cabinet.

[Strontium]

Sounds like he's spent 5 minutes on the GF.

[Section_31]

The problem with Musk is only part of his brain is intelligent. He can probably design satellites and stuff in his sleep but his grasp of everyday life seems like that of a teenage brat.

[Captain Turdseye]

Murdoch’s definitely done more damage in Britain. 
 

Don’t the majority of Americans think Musk is a fruitloop anyway? Maybe he’s just trying to get visitors to Twitter to see what shit he’s spouting.

Jarg Tony Stark

[Bobby Hundreds]

He can pay people to design satellites and is intelligent enough to talk shop with them but he's a thin skinned fatty who sees the easiest way to be held up as a god is to play up to people's fears and prejudices and make out you will stand up and fight for them, while doing no such thing other than cement more power into hands of people who don't have to answer to voters.

 

Honestly though i don't give a fuck either way.

The mans sounds like he'll gargle his own cock.

[Strontium]

Don't tell me you wouldn't if you could

On second thoughts ……

Grimes is an odd one. Proudly on an indie label yet has kids with the richest man on the planet.

Disappointed as I thought this was going to be another After Shave/Eau de Cologne thread.

X Free Speech Absolutist has lawsuit designed to silence critics thrown out of court.

 

Elon Musk’s lawsuit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate has been dismissed by a federal judge in California who deemed the suit an attempt to silence critics of the social media platform X.

 

Musk’s X Corp. filed suit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) last year, accusing the nonprofit of “intentionally and unlawfully” accessing the platform’s data to research reports documenting the rise in hate speech on X, formerly Twitter, following the tech billionaire’s 2022 takeover.

 

U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer called the suit a thinly veiled attempt to retaliate against CCDH and dismissed the case under a California law designed to stop frivolous litigation intended to punish defendants’ First Amendment rights, known as anti-SLAPP legislation.

I don’t know. I’d drop the Exa and just be called Dark Siderael, then act like I’m a fallen angel, and dress like The Crow.
