Yeah. That's information he wouldn't immediately have known. It's clear there is a collaboration going on.

What is Musk's end game? Is it, as he says, to end the woke mind virus (whatever that is and whatever the end would be) or is it something else.
Despite not being the pinnacle of human intelligence, as his followers believe, he's not stupid and I think he knows what he is doing, which is essentially just being a massive troll/WUM/c*nt.
He's playing with fire imo.

He’s simply doing what so many many wealthy people have done throughout history- buy political influence, control and ultimately power. The only real difference with him is how brazenly open he is about it,
Which are worse, the ones that buy political power openly or the ones that do it in secret.

Really, if the investment is on such a huge scale, does it matter? Are you downplaying Musk's behaviour?

No im not downplaying it, I’m simply not surprised and in answer to the question “what’s his endgame?” I’m saying it’s political power.
Historically this has been going on since time began and i imagine it’s no different now than at any point in history, the difference being the brazenness.
It’s a genuine question though, which is worse the ones doing it in secret or the ones doing it publicly?
I don't think he's downplaying it but pointing out that it's always happend. The rich and powerful have always controlled the narrative. Musk is just doing it in plain sight.

wouldn't discount that he just intends to be a massive troll. most people in his position wouldn't have time to waste on twitter let alone stirring up politics in UK, Germany and beyond. he does so because he doesn't care what happens and has a laugh at the fall out before going into his next meeting.
Direct democracy (no pesky politicians, just a small state governed by something like Twitter votes).
He reminds me of those international criminals featured in Spooks.
My guess is he's got a disproportionately tiny penis.
Right Brain Ronnie has been banned? I never knew. 2025 is certainly looking up.Welcome back. You've been very quiet since the day Right Brain Ronnie and Stout Girl were banned

That used to be my only view of him, now I'm not so sure.
Maybe it's just snowballing, because publicly endorsing the AfD and Tommy Robinson is certainly a different game than winding up a few Liberals on twitter.
I was thinking aesthetically more of a moulding mistake at the Thunderbirds studio villains modelling dept

Gullible morons are stronger in unison with their friends across the pond.Christ almighty, as if we don't have enough gullible morons of our own
Together they can empower rich twats across the world, safe in the knowledge that they will let them join the club.
Gullible morons do exactly what it says on the tin.

Well I read a couple of pages so I'll make a few points.
Someone asked what the woke mind virus is but obviously didn't look it up to see. Its a concept developed by Gad Saad an evolutionary biologist, first podcast I came across with him talking about it.
Elon musk "not as smart as his followers think", lol yea OK.
The rest seems just continual smearing of various right-wing figures that come into view. I cant be bothered going through it all fact checking and correcting multiple posts.
The phrase that springs to mind summing up the last couple of pages is that none of you are part of the conversation.

I fear its gonna be a bumpy ride.
The billionaires have been charged with the responsibility for looking after the rest of us.
What could possibly go wrong?

How unsurprising.
