That’s exactly what Elon Musk wants, and what could be expected from a South African white supremacist raised on the fortunes of an Emerald mine.
I don’t think Musk cares one way or another, it’s too much to ask that he has principles. He just wants people to look up to him and mysteriously it’s that group. So he’ll gorgle their balls as long as they gorgle his.
No you are wrong. Musk constantly align himself with the Maga crowd, the anti liberal and anti woke. If he is not an extreme right totalitarian, he sure acts like one. Of course he is also a narcissist and without principles. But being without principles doesn’t mean being without opinions.
If that’s the case, he did keep them well hidden until he started going totally off the rails (and left particularly hasn’t liked that). Though there’s a possibility he kept them hidden just with money.
Because everyone to the right of Stalin is literally hitler according to you. How is Elon a white supremacist?
There are a few facists further right than Stalin (who was a far right fascist), not just Hitler.
Have you forgotten the system that Starlin represented, yes he was a totalitarian, but for a left wing ideology. It does us no good to pretend people on our side of the asile can’t go too far too.
I’m not too well-versed in world-history, but when you look up definitions of “left-wing,” and the policies Stalin implemented, there doesn’t seem to be much overlap. Seems like a lot of authoritarian leftists just used the idea of a vanguard party to seize power and implement policies closer to fascism and state-capitalism than those of communism. Similar to the National “Socialist” Party.
Who’s the near right?
In my country the near right are: The Left(Liberal), Christian People’s Party(Conservative family values) and The Right(Capitalist). Middle right is The Progress Party(Liberal-Populist). And far right The Alliance(Nationalist-Populist), have no seats.
Like the American right.
One of my motivations behind leaving.
It used to be a place for discussion of ideas. Now almost every story about has hundreds of comments, mostly hating on one group of people or another.
Sadly the right is on the rise everywhere and not solely due to twitter, they just give it a more visible voice
Far right all over the world is booming on Elon Musk’s Twitter.
What are the odds of Elon running for a Republican office in 10 years?
Elon can’t legally run for office
He can’t be president, but he could hold another office. (Like Arnold Schwarzenegger - was governor of CA, but can’t be president.)
Don’t know why you were downvoted. Musk was born in South Africa and is not allowed to run for president
Close to 0%? He’s not a native US citizen and can’t run. At least with current laws
That’s only for president. Naturalized citizens can run for all other public office positions.
So are other political groups. What’s wrong with free speech?
