You have, no doubt, seen the photos of Elon Musk jumping around like a chihuahua on crack at a recent Trump Lie Fest. It was especially impressive considering that from previous photos I've seen, Musk's body appears to be made entirely from marshmallows.
What you may not know is, that like many "I did it all by myself" Libertarians before him, Musk's businesses have all relied on government money, either through loans or contracts. His fabulous fortune is due to American taxpayers propping him up, to the tune of many billions of dollars. Your tax dollars at work again.
So much for the rugged individualist, the self-made man. Myths. All myths.
He's cosplaying as an Edison level inventor. Nope. Never invented anything, except his own legend.
And a "free speech loving patriot." Nope again.
Unless your idea of free speech includes a deluge of unchallenged MAGA lies, which flood his soapbox, Twitter/X, every goddamn day. It's heaven for Russian bots, and like walking through a field of fresh dog shit for the rest of us.
As far as being just a concerned, First Amendment loving, "American patriot", in truth he is a South African immigrant, whose family's fortune, like many white South Africans, depended on apartheid.
(And that father of his? WOW. Like Fred Trump's most infamous spawn, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.)
If Elon isn't a paid Putin stooge, he certainly acts like a paid Putin stooge.
And, since he's gone all in supporting Traitor Trump, to my mind that makes him just another traitor, too.
The sooner this little man heads to Mars, the better for humanity. Oh, and let's make sure he takes Peter Thiel with him.
