Putting aside all the Elon Musk drama, this stuff is just annoying to have to see. “I hate the far left !and the far right.” First of all, false equivalence, secondly like that’s such a bold statement. Newsflash: Everyone hates extremists. I defy you to find a single person who likes them. But more than that the problem is how many people quietly believe far right bullshit and think it’s normal. Most Nazis aren’t goose stepping Hitler cosplayers, they’re just bigoted people who don’t see themselves as such. The kind of people who claim to be centrists that “hate both sides” are just fashies who are afraid to be upfront about it.

    by “far-left” he means wokescold liberals or just socially progressives judging by his other tweets, he doesn’t mean revolutionary socialists who are tipically associated with “far-left”, tho that only makes it even worse because he seems to be pandering into that very reactionary “muh political correctness” bunch.

    well thats just neoliberalism. It’s a “pick your own principle” approach to an amorphous blob of hypocrisy that is just interested in being a power broker

    Honestly if any class based violence breaks out targeting the very rich, I truly and sincerely hope it targets him first. He is fucking insufferable and the world would be better without him in it.

    He’s trying to maintain the left right narrative cause that way people will be too busy to start any class warfare. And that kinda works out well for him

    Delete your account and abandon twitter. The best possible outcome is for Musk to take a bath on his 44 billion investment. The culture and quality of discussion on that platform will only go down from here.
