Elon Musk and Racism

Inspired by the other long running thread. I keep reading that he tweets and retweets racist comments. Can anyone link any or all of them please? I see tweets over illegal immigration, as opposed to immigration, but not racist?

So instead of opinions please can people post the actual words used or retweeted? Or anything he said in interviews, word for word?

Thanks!

I’ve read the theory that he’s so incapable of processing his eldest son’s decision to be a girl that he’s basically taken up a war against that kind of ‘woke’. What we’re witnessing here is a very bratty tantrum that he can’t connect (or parent) with a child that doesn’t conform to what he thinks the world should look like.

@Inyourfacebidisg
allegations are worth nothing.

I allege you have a racist dog. Prove me wrong.

you don’t need to read it. That’s what he is doing. He’s said it. On camera. He is going to destroy the woke mind virus and at the same time take humanity to Mars.

this is great on both counts.

Eyesopenwideawake · 03/01/2025 22:11

Oh @MonkeyVsBunny you're very angry, aren't you? What would it take for you to be happy with your own life? What's missing?

titchy · 03/01/2025 22:11

That’s not racist.

What - saying a far right racist, currently in prison for spreading lies about an immigrant, should be freed, isn't racist?

Suggest you get a different dictionary.

That’s not racist.

that’s allowing people to have opinions.

that’s what we do.

bad ideas fester in the dark.

they die in the light.

No they don’t!?! History teaches us that over and over again.

not tolerating intolerance is actually the only way to tackle festering ideologies.

Oh right. Can’t say I’m a big enough fan to seek out an interview of him preaching.

he’s a twat. He doesn’t recognise any of his own failures and is completely self obsessed.

Ah. You’re a “no platform” censor who does not believe in the free exchange of ideas. Sorry I can’t get behind someone who is like 16th century catholic church.

I’d like my son to have not been infected by the woke mind virus and think he’s a girl.

thanks for asking.

What lies has Elon musk spread? He is one of the most richest and most intelligent people on the planet, do you think he would just be spreading lies Willy Nilly and opening himself up for defamation law suits?

No, he is a rich cunt and the wants to remain that way without libel cases. What kind of conspiracy left wing shit are you reading?

Tittat50 · 03/01/2025 22:20

That video is so insightful. I would like to understand how far he defines the woke mind virus, what in his view comes within the realms of the woke mind virus and whether he's as concerned by other elements he sees as part of the woke mind as much as the trans debate.( I agree with him and JP on the trans debate issue. )

suggestionsplease1 · 03/01/2025 22:21

He doesn't have to say anything racist himself.

He is powerful enough to manufacture the circumstances under which other people's prejudices can flourish.

He knows exactly what he's doing.

Whoever cowardly reported my post. Have the courage of your convictions.

So you mean

”he’s not racist”.

No.

I suggest you take some logic lesson before arriving at erroneous conclusions from premises.

@PCOSisaid - read again. I said TR was in prison for talking shit about an immigrant, not EM.

ForPearlViper · 03/01/2025 22:26

It astounding how many self-proclaimed libertarians are salivating over an oligarchy.

There is only one thing certain in this world. The rich will grow and the poor will grow poorer.

And the people here drooling over Elon will certaintly be in the latter category. That's how it works.

No.

You need to point at evidence of him being racist.

given you think there are thousands of examples it should be pretty easy to find.

I’ll wait.
