Elon Musk, the enigmatic billionaire and now owner of X, allegedly played a role in suspending the account after it raised a massive fundraiser.

It raises questions about Musk’s capacity for empathy and support towards his daughter, who has clearly made a significant life decision to transition and live authentically.
The fact that Musk’s daughter felt the need to legally change her name and distance herself from her father speaks volumes. It indicates a breakdown in their relationship, with Musk attributing this estrangement to what he calls the ‘woke mind virus’.… Continue reading

Elon Musk, the once-respected figure behind companies like Space X, StarLink, and Tesla, seems to have taken a turn for the worst. With his recent public attempts to recruit his billionaire peers to the Trump-Vance camp, Musk is openly delving into the realm of politics in a way that leaves a sour taste in many people’s mouths. It is quite baffling to see someone who was once celebrated for his innovative work in technology now aligning himself with the divisive and destructive agenda of Trump and his cohorts.

It’s truly disheartening to witness the betrayal of Elon Musk by none other than Donald Trump, especially after Musk’s generous $180 million pledge. The sheer audacity displayed in Trump’s ‘EV-bashing’ RNC speech, despite Musk’s financial support, is nothing short of a slap in the face. It begs the question: does loyalty hold no value in the realm of politics and power?
The relationship between Trump and Musk seems to be one built on shaky foundations. With accusations of laundering foreign campaign donations and the insinuation that Musk is merely seeking government subsidies for personal gain, it’s evident that their dynamic is built on self-serving interests rather than genuine collaboration.… Continue reading
Elon Musk never ceases to amaze me with his grandiose ideas and seemingly limitless ego. The recent revelation that he wants to build a flying metal suit of armor in response to the Trump assassination attempt is both amusing and concerning. It’s like he’s living in his own version of a Marvel movie, where he sees himself as the real-life Tony Stark. But let’s be real here, he is no Iron Man.

It’s no secret that we live in an oligarchic society. The insatiable greed of American oligarchs is on full display, with billionaires wielding disproportionate power and influence over our democracy. It’s concerning how easily a billionaire like Elon Musk can purchase a significant stake in the virtual public square and shape it to align with his own ideological values. The flaunting of wealth and power by these individuals is downright unseemly, highlighting the deep-rooted inequalities that exist in our society.
The passage of laws like the Taft-Hartley Act, which criminalized the means by which labor unions could leverage the strength of the working class, paved the way for the rise of the post-WWII oligarchy.… Continue reading
Elon Musk donating $45 million monthly to a Trump-supporting PAC is not just a concerning development, it is a disgrace. When I think about the immense impact that kind of money could have if it were put towards positive and meaningful causes, it’s truly disheartening to see it being funneled into a political campaign that may undermine critical environmental regulations and protections. It’s infuriating to see someone who is heralded as a visionary for sustainable energy turn around and support a candidate who is known for denying climate change and rolling back crucial environmental policies.
The idea that Super PACs can operate in such a way, essentially allowing wealthy individuals like Elon Musk to buy influence and sway policy decisions, is deeply troubling.… Continue reading
Elon Musk, the CEO of X, has once again made headlines with his bold statement to move the company out of California over the state’s new transgender law. While the decision may seem sudden to some, it is crucial to look beyond the surface and understand the deeper implications of his actions.
Musk’s history of controversial statements and behavior is well-documented, but his recent vow to relocate X out of California sheds light on his underlying transphobia and prejudice.
