Summary
Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has boldly declared a war on the federal government, aggressively reshaping public discourse and challenging established authority.
Using a ‘special government employee’ role via an executive order, Musk established DOGE to cut $500 billion in annual spending, strictly bypassing oversight.
Musk targeted USAID, declaring it as criminal while proposing its shutdown, and appointed young, inexperienced aides and former Tesla staff to federal positions.
These maneuvers have sparked partisan debates, raised conflict-of-interest concerns, and underscored a dramatic shift in federal power dynamics in a nation-wide upheaval.
Elon’s actions are going to kill an untold number of people. What institution or legal action is going to stop him?
One can successfully oppose enemies of a free and open society without resorting to gruesomely killing them (i.e., “chopping them up”).
I guarantee you’ll wilt like a leaf if you had to chop him up. If that prospect doesn’t give you any pause, you’re a psychopath.
How exactly? You didn’t even attempt to answer my question. Elon’s coup hasn’t faced any effective resistance.
Once again: gruesomely killing Elon Musk isn’t a viable, practical, nor moral solution to preventing his dismantling of our federal republic.
To answer your “straw-man” question and play your game: wildcat or general strike, armed revolution, or insurgency. Striking is the solution with the least potential bloodshed.
Good luck trying cut up Musk with a machete or trying to fight the US military domestically which uses Predator drones armed with Hellfire missiles, not to mention fifth generation multi-role fighter aircraft and Apache gunships. Even if you succeed getting to him and chopping him up, guess what? You’re still a psychopath because only psychopaths willingly dismember people.
