    I’m not even beginning with the subtle BS from NPR when you got what happened with Musk wrong. Even the timeframe. Let me tell you exactly why Musk got demonised. When he said there should be peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. Yep, this. While now many people say this at the time it was presented somehow as very controversial as the US wanted the war to continue pretending they could win. And anyone wanting peace is a horrible Russian asset. From that moment on every bit of concerted regime press news about him was negative. And the public opinion followed.

    All this while he has been a scumbag all his life.

    Just a few things this narcistic nutbag has done before:

    -As a PR stunt, Musk promised to build a mini-submarine to rescue a boys soccer team that got trapped in a Thai cave in 2018. After receiving vitriol from the Thai and rescue community, he called a Thai rescue worker a pedophile. After the rescuer sues Musk for defamation, Musk pays 50k to a private investigator (and former felon), to dig up dirt on the rescuer., and was told to use “aggressive tactics”. Musk’s team then told the investigator: “We would like you to immediately move forward with ‘leaking’ this information to the UK press. Obviously must be done very carefully.

    -Not to mention all the shit during Covid. Threathening to move his plant bcs he had to close his plant like everyone else during the worst peak.

    -Having horrible conditions in those Tesla and Space X factories. https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-injuries-rates-higher-industry-average-worksafe-2017-5

    I could write pages about him. All this time I was amazed at all the press and public still bootlicking Papa Elon. OC he was important for the MIC and economically. Like every scummy oligarch you can get away with a lot as long as you tow the regime line.
