How Elon Musk Went from Superhero to Supervillain

Walter Isaacson’s new biography depicts a man who seems estranged from humanity itself.

“Sometimes great innovators are risk-seeking man-children who resist potty training,” Isaacson concludes in the last lines of his life of Musk. “They can be reckless, cringeworthy, sometimes even toxic. They can also be crazy. Crazy enough to think they can change the world.” It’s a disconcerting thing to read on page 615 of a biography of a fifty-two-year-old man about whom a case could be made that he wields more power than any other person on the planet who isn’t in charge of a nuclear arsenal. Not potty-trained? Boys will be . . . toddlers?

(Musk’s father is a conspiracist who has called Joe Biden a “pedophile President,” and who has two children by his own stepdaughter; he has said that “the only thing we are here for is to reproduce.” Recently, he warned Elon, in an e-mail, that “with no Whites here, the Blacks will go back to the trees.”)

Musk’s Twitter account first got him into real trouble in 2018, when he baselessly called a British diver, who helped rescue Thai children trapped in a flooded cave, a “pedo” and was sued for defamation.

The World According to Elon Musk’s Grandfather

What happened to antisemitic rants before social media.

By Jill Lepore, Sept 19, 2023.720p

This month, Elon Musk threatened to sue the Anti-Defamation League, alleging that its denunciation of X—the A.D.L. had accused the social-media platform formerly known as Twitter of amplifying antisemitism—has cost Musk’s company a fortune in advertising revenue. The Anti-Defamation League, in turn, asserted that Musk’s threat was “dangerous and deeply irresponsible.” This week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flew to California to meet with Musk to discuss artificial intelligence, but their other much-anticipated topic was antisemitism. Netanyahu asked Musk to “stop antisemitism as best you can.” Musk, alluding to SpaceX and his hope for a mission to Mars, responded that he favors anything that “ultimately leads us to become a spacefaring civilization,” and, since hate hinders that mission, “obviously, I’m against antisemitism.”

This all unfolded amid the release of Walter Isaacson’s new biography of Musk. Musk’s family history has a bearing on the dispute, but, in the book, as I pointed out in a review, Isaacson only glancingly discusses Musk’s grandfather J. N. Haldeman, whom he presents as a risk-taking adventurer and whose politics he dismisses as “quirky.” In fact, Haldeman was a pro-apartheid, antisemitic conspiracy theorist who blamed much of what bothered him about the world on Jewish financiers.

Elon Musk is not responsible for the political opinions of his grandfather, who died when Musk was three years old. But Haldeman’s legacy casts light on what social media does: the reason that most people don’t know about Musk’s grandfather’s political writings is that in his lifetime social media did not exist, and the writings of people like him were not, therefore, amplified by it. Indeed, they were very unlikely to circulate widely, and are now quite rare. Still, they’re not hard to find, which makes it unfortunate that Isaacson neither quotes from nor mentions them.

Musk has said that he bought Twitter to halt the advance of a “woke mind virus” spreading online. His grandfather wrote his tracts to raise an alarm about what he called “mind control,” on the radio and television, where “an unconditional propaganda warfare is carried on against the White man.”

Haldeman was born in Minnesota in 1902 but grew up mostly in Saskatchewan, Canada. A daredevil aviator and sometime cowboy, he also trained and worked as a chiropractor. In the nineteen-thirties, he joined the quasi-fascistic Technocracy movement, whose proponents believed that scientists and engineers, rather than the people, should rule. He became a leader of the movement in Canada, and, when it was briefly outlawed, he was jailed, after which he became the national chairman of what was then a notoriously antisemitic party called Social Credit. In the nineteen-forties, he ran for office under its banner, and lost. In 1950, two years after South Africa instituted apartheid, he moved his family to Pretoria, where he became an impassioned defender of the regime.

Before the age of the Internet, the writings of political extremists tended to be privately published, in quite small numbers. An angry man typing out memos about an invisible world government might make a few mimeographs or carbon copies, but the chance that any ended up in a library, catalogued and preserved, is slight. Presumably, most of Haldeman’s papers remain in family hands, if they have not been destroyed. But some of his writing survives, including in the Michigan State University library’s extraordinary Radicalism Collection.

In 2017, the collection acquired two of Haldeman’s tracts, as part of a trove from an anonymous donor which has now grown to nineteen thousand pieces of right-wing propaganda and conspiracy literature. One of the Haldeman tracts, “The International Conspiracy to Establish a World Dictatorship and the Menace to South Africa,” is dated May, 1960. The timing is significant. In February, 1960, Haro

Disney's 'Democratic Political Operative' Bob Iger Fully Exposed After Musk Spat: Thacker
Saturday, Dec 09, 2023 - 01:20 PM

Authored by Paul Thacker via The DisInformation Chronicle (subscribe here)

Editors at the New York Post commissioned me to write a piece last weekend explaining how the Democratic Party has been targeting Elon Musk for buying Twitter and taking away their ability to censor critics and label them “disinformation.” The issue came to a head after Musk vented during an interview when asked about Disney and other companies pulling advertising over alleged antisemitism on his platform.

“If someone is going to try and blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go fuck yourself," Elon Musk said. Musk repeated the advice with a wave of his hand toward Disney’s Bob Iger, a Musk critic and Biden administration donor and functionary.

“Go. Fuck. Yourself. Is that clear? Hey, Bob, if you’re in the audience.”

Within hours of the intervew, dozens of parodies began appearing on X, including this one.

Quote:
But if you read about the exchange in any media outlet, you would think Musk was coming unhinged, attacking advertisers who support his own company.

This is far from reality. Democratic operatives including Disney’s Bob Iger have been harassing Musk since he took over Twitter and released company documents showing the government and Democratic Party aligned organizations were censoring Americans. You can read some of my reporting on these Twitter Files here, here, here, here, and here.

After the New York Post published my essay, I found that Musk had predicted a dirty tricks campaign over a year and a half ago.

The tactics being used against Musk are quite simple to understand if you know the various figures involved, their backgrounds, and finances. First, Democratic Party attack groups like the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and Media Matters for America gin up fake studies that accuse Musk of allowing hate, antisemitism, racism (whatever label they feel is effective) to flourish on social media. Second, Biden campaign donors like Disney’s Bob Iger express panic and flee X, complaining that they can’t be associated with hate.

The media won’t report on this, but it’s a basic squeeze play once you know the characters involved.

In recent months, Musk has sued both the Center for Countering Digital Hate and Media Matters for America for making false allegations of hate at X that have driven away advertisers. Both groups claim to be nonpartisan but actually work to attack opponents of Democratic Party policies.

If you read any story in the press about the CCDH, you would think they’re some lefty nonprofit laboring away to keep the world safe from online hate. A couple headlines just to give you a flavor for this.

But as I documented in an investigation for Tablet, political operatives with the conservative wing of the British Labour Party founded the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) in 2018 to attack people on the Left and Right. The group’s leader, Imran Ahmed, now asserts that he is “at the forefront of reporting on the hate proliferating on X/Twitter since Musk completed his takeover in late October 2022.”

In reality, Ahmed is also a former Labour Party political operative who ran CCDH and another Labour Party front group to attack the left wing of his own party with vague accusation of hate. While in the UK, Ahmed’s groups helped to run Jeremy Corbyn out of Labour Party leadership and tanked the lefty news site Canary, after starting a boycott of their advertisers.

Former Canary editor Kerry-Anne Mendoza described Ahmed’s war against her leftist news site as a scorched earth campaign that destroyed their advertising reve

I don't think that it will destroy Twitter.

All I ever heard before Musk bought it was that Twitter had NEVER made a profit or figured out how to properly monetize the damn platform. It really wasn't any different than any of the TV/Movie streaming platforms that spent billions churning out their own content to up their view counts and stock price despite losing money every quarter of every year since they started up.

That's why it was so insane that he paid so much for it in the first place.

But really... It shouldn't cost all that much to run. Yeah... a ton of people around the world use it, but it's not as if he's got to maintain all of the servers necessary to not only hold all of the TV shows and movies that the streaming services have, but the bandwidth to get them out to hundreds of millions of people streaming them simultaneously around the world. And he's not spending billions every year making content either.

I don't think he's really worried that Twitter is going anywhere. Even if his stock prices bottom out short-term because of this ad boycott and the current state of the world economy, he hasn't lost any money until he sells it. He's got plenty of money to keep paying for operating costs in the mean time and a pretty diverse group of other businesses he owns that generate revenue.

Greedy Elon Musk gets bashed by heavy metal drummer who cost him $56 billion

By Tom Hals | February 1, 2024, 2:26 PM CST

https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/elon-musk-bashed
-by-heavy-metal-drummer-who-cost-him-56-bln-2024-02-01/

WILMINGTON, Delaware, Feb 1 (Reuters) - Elon Musk suffered one of the biggest legal losses in U.S. history this week when the Tesla CEO was stripped of his $56 billion pay package in a case brought by an unlikely opponent, a former heavy metal drummer.

Richard Tornetta sued Musk in 2018, when the Pennsylvania resident held just nine shares of Tesla. The case eventually made its way to trial in late 2022 and on Tuesday a judge sided with Tornetta, voiding the enormous pay deal for being unfair to him and all his fellow Tesla shareholders.

Until Tornetta's case, Musk prevailed in a string of trials accusing him of defamation, of breaching his duty to shareholders and of violating securities laws.

On social media, fans of Tesla and Musk seemed to find the case a travesty of justice and speculated about Tornetta's intentions and political affiliations, asking how an investor with such miniscule holdings could wield such power.

Delaware corporate case law is full of cases bearing the names of individual investors with tiny shareholdings who wound up shaping America's corporate law. Many law firms that represent shareholders keep a stable of investors they can work with to bring cases, says Eric Talley, who teaches corporate law at Columbia Law School. They might be pension funds with a broad range of stock holdings but they are also often individuals like Tornetta.

The plaintiff signs paperwork to file the lawsuit and then generally gets out of the way, says Talley. The investors don't pay the law firm, which takes the case on contingency, as the lawyers did in the Musk case.

Tornetta benefits from winning the case the same way other Tesla shareholders benefit: saving the company billions of dollars that a subservient board of directors paid to Musk.

Business groups have long criticized cases brought by individuals as an indication of potentially abusive litigation. Delaware 10 years ago was plagued with lawsuits led by retail investors owning a few shares challenging merger deals. The cases were often quickly resolved with meaningless settlements that always included payments to the attorneys bringing the cases. Delaware judges and lawmakers eventually reined in the practice.

Experts said people like Tornetta are vital for policing boardrooms. Lawmakers and judges have long wanted large investment firms to lead such corporate litigation since they are better equipped to keep an eye on their lawyers' tactics. But experts said fund managers do not want to jeopardize relationships on Wall Street.

So it was up to Tornetta to take on Musk.

"His name is now etched in the annals of corporate law," Talley said. "My students will be reading Tornetta v Musk for the next 10 years."

Was the richest person in the world overpaid?

Delaware courts have been presented with this question thrice before, when more adroit judges found ways to avoid definitively resolving it. This decision dares to “boldly go where no man has gone before,” or at least where no Delaware court has tread.

The defendants bore the burden of proving at trial that the compensation plan was entirely fair. The defendants were thus left with the unenviable task of proving the fairness of the largest potential compensation plan in the history of public markets. If any set of attorneys could have achieved victory in these unlikely circumstances, it was the talented defense attorneys here. But the task proved too tall an order.

Former Tesla director Larry Ellison invited Elon Musk to Hawaii to 'dry out' from drugs, report says

By Katherine Tangalakis-Lippert and Lloyd Lee | Feb 3, 2024, 11:08 PM CST

https://www.businessinsider.com/larry-ellison-elon-musk-hawaii-dry-out
-drugs-report-2024-2

Elon Musk's drug use so worried his business associates and company board members that they asked him to go to rehab and even take a break from working to "dry out" from various substances, including LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, and ketamine, a new report from The Wall Street Journal said.

Larry Ellison, Musk's close friend, a former Tesla director, and the billionaire cofounder of Oracle, went so far as to urge Musk to travel to Hawaii during winter 2022 to pause his work and avoid drugs, the outlet reported, citing people familiar with the offer.

Ellison's proposal came amid increasing concerns among Musk's friends and associates that Musk's drug use was getting worse, some of those people told the Journal.

At a party in the Hollywood Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles around the time of Ellison's suggestion, the report added, one person who attended the event said Musk drank ecstasy in "liquid form" from a water bottle after having his personal security clear the floor for privacy.

The Journal reported the "volume" of Musk's drug use had contributed to a culture of peer pressure among Musk's friends and board directors of his various companies that created an "expectation" for them to use drugs alongside him to maintain the social status gained by being close to the billionaire.

Musk, Ellison, and their lawyers Alex Spiro and Christopher Muzzi did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider.

The Journal previously reported Musk, who is reportedly one of several executives in Silicon Valley to try his hand at psychedelics such as ketamine, had also indulged in LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, and "magic" mushrooms.

Despite proclaiming that he doesn't "like doing illegal drugs," Musk's drug use has previously put him and his companies on notice.

After he smoked marijuana on an episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast, NASA made SpaceX pledge in writing that the company was following federal guidelines on drug use in the workplace. The company spent $5 million in taxpayer money to properly train its employees on the rules, the Journal reported.

The billionaire also said on X that he had a prescription for ketamine, which research has suggested can be used to treat depression.

Experts previously told BI that the combination of hard drugs Musk is said to have used came with several health risks, especially at his age of 52.

Those include irregular heartbeat and incontinence, as well as psychosis if the user has bipolar disorder. In 2017, CNBC reported Musk suggested to his Twitter followers that he had the disorder. Musk pissed in his pants today. He and Trump share a need for adult diapers.

Tesla (TSLA) stock is under pressure today following allegations that CEO Elon Musk pressured board members into drug use, according to a Wall Street Journal report.

This follows a Delaware judge ruling Tesla's board process for approving Musk's massive pay package was "deeply flawed," prompting concerns about his relationships with individuals of his executive board.

The troubling revelations about board oversight come as Tesla faces numerous headwinds including SAP SE (SAP) halting the use of Tesla as company cars and Piper Sandler's decision to cut it's price target on the stock.

Some of Elon Musk's company directors are said to feel an 'expectation' to use drugs with him to avoid upsetting the billionaire

Elon Musk is said to have created a culture of peer pressure among some of his friends and business associates that encourages them to use drugs with him, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal that details how board members and directors of his various companies either participate in or enable his substance use to stay close to the billionaire.

The Journal reported that at parties in recent years, Musk had been spotted taking ketamine recreationally through a nasal spray and drinking liquid ecstasy from a water bottle, citing people who witnessed the drug use or were briefed about it.

Current and former Tesla and SpaceX directors and board members— some of whom have invested tens of millions of dollars in Musk's companies or have significant stock options tied to their roles — had also used drugs with him, the Journal reported.

Sources told the Journal that the "volume" of Musk's drug use had created a culture wherein his closest business associates feared losing their wealth and social status by upsetting the billionaire if they refused to use drugs with him.

Musk, his lawyer Alex Spiro, and representatives for Tesla and SpaceX didn't immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider.

Following a January 6 report by The Journal that said the 52-year-old had used cocaine, LSD, ecstasy, and magic mushrooms over the years, Musk said in a post on X: "Whatever I'm doing, I should obviously keep doing it!"

After the January report, which could jeopardize Musk's security clearance as well as the billions of dollars of government contracts enjoyed by SpaceX as a defense contractor because of federal regulations on drug use, NASA said in a statement: "The agency does not have evidence of noncompliance from SpaceX on how the company addresses the drug- and alcohol-free workforce regulations."

Musk's reported drug use has been at the center of recent controversies after the Journal reported that a former director at Tesla was so concerned about Musk's drug use and unpredictable behavior that she chose not to stand for reelection to the electric-car company's board.

The Journal also reported that SpaceX executives worried Musk was on drugs during a "cringeworthy" all-hands meeting, in which the billionaire arrived nearly an hour late, rambling and slurring his words for about 15 minutes before the meeting was taken over by the spacecraft manufacturer's president.

Dude. We know the Legacy Media is going to do whatever it can to censor people who don't agree with the regime. And since the US Government can't just outright claim Eminent Domain on Twitter and resume control of operations there, defamation it is.

They're just trying to take down Elon Musk now so they can have their biggest propaganda tool back. They all tried to quit and go elsewhere, but nobody left with them and they're all back on Twitter now and they're super butt hurt that it's not a Leftist Utopia with the CIA and FBI operating on the highest levels like it used to be.

The only people who believe any of this bullshit are the people who don't matter. Nobody else is buying it.

I'm not going to speak any more on this issue because it's moot. Nothing is going to come of this.

This is a variation of Trump's endless repetition of "Fake News!" When accused of being a tax cheater, Trump said "Fake News" a thousand times before it was revealed he paid only $750 in income tax. Nothing will be Real News to Trumptards until Trump is in jail, his companies are liquidated, and $billions in back taxes are paid. In the case of Elon Musk, Trumptards won't believe this guy is crazy until the price of Tesla stock crashes. Tesla stock market value is higher than all automobile companies combined. Once the stock gets valued the same as other car companies, perhaps Trumptards will realize Musk is a drug-addled fraud and con artist, much like Trump, but more successful.

Elon Musk Melts Down in Baffling Answer on Tesla Supercomputer - Feb 10, 2024

Dissecting Musk's largely nonsensical remarks, it's hard to believe the company is making much concrete progress on Dojo after all this time — or, if it is, it sounds like Musk has no idea about it.

In fact, it calls to mind an anecdote about Musk during his time at Zip2, one of his early companies. There, according to an employee, he put a normal PC inside a giant pompous wheeled case, which he would show off to potential investors and tell them it was a "mini supercomputer."

In other words, it sounds a lot like Musk is the same as he's always been: a talented marketer who leads with the hype, adjusting the story as he goes in response to reality. Remember when he first showed off a Tesla "robot" called Optimus, except that it was just a person in a suit?

Some of Musk's "magic" may be starting to fade. Tesla's shares have been put through the wringer this year, in large part due to the mercurial CEO's racist antics. Earlier this month, Quartz reported that the company is now officially the worst-performing stock in the S&P 500, a market index tracking the 500 largest companies in the US.

Elon Musk Goes Full Crazy With New Claim About Holocaust

By Tori Otten / January 23, 2024

https://newrepublic.com/post/178324/auschwitz-elon-musk-social-media-p
revent-holocaust

Elon Musk, who has used social media to spread antisemitic conspiracy theories, is now arguing that had social media existed at the time of the Holocaust, it could have prevented the tragedy.

Musk visited the Nazi death camp Auschwitz-Birkenau on Monday, as part of an apparent apology tour for his blatant antisemitism. Later that day, he participated in a conference on antisemitism organized in Krakow by the European Jewish Association.

Musk admitted he had been “somewhat naive” about the dangers of antisemitism. But he revealed how little he actually cares by sitting down for an interview with Ben Shapiro, a far-right commentator and conspiracy theorist. The two men then insisted that social media could have prevented the Holocaust from happening.

To prove their argument, Musk showed fake tweets he created of people sharing photos of Nazi attacks on synagogues, supporting Jewish resistance fighters, and pushing back against Holocaust deniers. There was even a tweet from the “official” Auschwitz account claiming Jews there were “thriving” — only to have a community note debunk that claim.

This claim holds very little water, for many reasons. A major one, as journalist Aaron Gordon pointed out, was that Nazi Germany revoked Jews’ right to free movement long before the death camps were built. So all those tweets from people urging Jews to leave Germany would have been meaningless.

Another reason is that many civilians were well aware of what Nazis were doing, or at least aware that Jewish people were being removed and never seen again. And they were perfectly content to let it happen.

In fact, if the current state of X (formerly Twitter) is anything to go by, social media could have actually made the Holocaust happen faster.

Since Musk took over the social media platform, X has been rife with hate speech. Musk himself is a major source of disinformation and hate speech, particularly antisemitism. He has also let multiple neo-Nazis back onto X, after previous leadership banned them.

In November, Musk backed a vile antisemitic conspiracy theory that Jewish people are getting what they deserve because they harbor “diabolical hatred against whites.” That, combined with the revelation that X was placing ads next to pro-Hitler and pro-Nazi content, sent advertisers fleeing the platform in droves (again).

Musk said Monday that his November post was “literally the worst and dumbest post I’ve ever done,” which is saying something if you look at his X feed. He claimed he hadn’t understood the dangers of anti-Jewish sentiment because “in the circles I move in, I see no antisemitism.”

He said that “two-thirds of my friends are Jewish,” which actually undercuts his previous claim. Surely at least one of those Jewish friends would have been able to tell Musk about antisemitism.

Musk then claimed that thanks to all his information-hoarding friends, he is “Jewish by association.”

“I’m aspirationally Jewish,” he said, which holds all the gravity of someone calling themself “Jew-ish.”

Musk said used Tesla cars may be worth five times what new Teslas are today

By Peter Valdes-Dapena | Sun March 3, 2024

https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/03/cars/musk-tesla-cars-value-ev-prices/in
dex.html

Back in 2019, Elon Musk made an astonishing claim for Tesla vehicles. Tesla cars, he said, would go up in value, not down, after purchase.

The reason for that is Tesla’s full self-driving capability that, Musk has said, requires only some additional software updates and regulatory approval before Tesla vehicles on the road today will become fully independent. He repeated this claim as recently as June 2023.

“You can think of every car we sell or produce that has full autonomy capability as something that in the future may be worth five times what it is today,” he said in the company’s third quarter, 2023, earnings call.

And not only would the price of a used Tesla go up, but Musk also predicted a world in which Tesla’s driver assistance suite, which the company calls “Full Self-Driving” despite not fully self-driving the vehicle, would on its own be worth $100,000.

Because, with regulatory approval, your self-driving Tesla would be able to go “work” as a taxi on your behalf. All you’d have to do is sit back and collect the cash.

But four years after Musk’s 2019 prediction, the average used Tesla Model 3 is selling for $29,000. And regulatory approval for “Full Self-Driving” has not arrived, either, as the company incrementally attempts to improve the software.

Elon Musk is allegedly a fan of several psychoactive drugs. But according to the venerable Silicon Valley chronicler Kara Swisher, the vice proving most destructive to the SpaceX and Tesla CEO is a little less tangible than the others.

"The drug that's hurting Elon Musk is all his enablers, who suck up to him. And needing to be adored," Swisher recently told The Guardian when asked about the mercurial CEO's very public slide — mostly documented via X-formerly-Twitter, the platform he purchased for $44 billion in 2022 — into red-pilled conspiracyville. "That'll kill you."

"You could see him getting more and more radicalized," Swisher continued. "He suddenly got obsessed with the woke mind virus, whatever the hell that is, and angry all the time."

In other words, according to Swisher, a lack of accountability from those in his inner circle combined with a very obvious need for others to like him have led Musk — the world's richest man and arguably its most powerful unelected official — down a deeply destructive and conspiracy-laden road. And given Musk's immense real-world power, it's led to serious consequences for himself and his companies in turn. (Or, at least, as real as consequences might get for the richest person in history.)

Sycophant Symphony

Swisher certainly wouldn't be the first to call out Musk's penchant for surrounding himself with sycophants. In late 2022, shortly after Musk took over Twitter, the venture capitalist and longtime Musk pal Chris Sacca noted that he'd "recently watched those around him become increasingly sycophantic and opportunistic."

"Simply put, agreeing with him is easier," the investor added, "and there is more financial and social upside."

Not Angry, Just Disappointed

Swisher's comments to the Guardian were prompted by some statements she reportedly made about Musk in her newly-released book, titled "Burn Book." In the book, per the Guardian, Swisher says that Facebook founder and sword guy Mark Zuckerberg has been the "most damaging man in tech," while Musk has, to her, been the "most disappointing."

"Here's someone who actually was doing serious things," the journalist told the Guardian. "There's a lot of people in Silicon Valley who are always doing a dry cleaning app. He was thinking of everything from cars to space to solar."

Indeed, Swisher's sentiment seems to capture why Musk's descent into red-pilled conspiracy-mongering has been so jarring. Musk has never been without his faults, but for a long time, his public image was one of a true visionary. But now, between his rampant antisemitism and racism, erratic antics, and otherwise disappointing behavior, his once-inspiring vision has never looked so clouded.

Prologue to Burn Book: A Tech Love Story by Kara Swisher

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.
—F. SCOTT FITZGERALD, THE GREAT GATSBY

If I had to pick the moment when it all went off the rails for the tech industry, I’d choose Saturday morning, December 10, 2016.

I got a tip: The crowned heads of Silicon Valley’s most powerful tech companies had been summoned to tromp into Manhattan’s Trump Tower and meet the man who had unexpectedly just been elected president and was the antithesis of all they supposedly represented.

“Skulk” was more like it. The only reason I was hearing about the tech summit was because one of tech’s top-tier players had not been invited due to his “liberal leanings” and “outspoken opposition” to President-Elect Donald Trump. The outcast called me in a lather.

“Sucking up to that corpulent loser who never met a business he didn’t drive straight into a wall, it’s shameful,” he said. “Can you believe it? Can you believe it?”

After decades of covering the nascent Internet industry from its birth, I could believe it. While my actual son filled me with pride, an increasing number of these once fresh-faced wunderkinds I had mostly rooted for now made me feel like a parent whose progeny had turned into, well, assholes.

My first call was to one of the potentates who was sometimes testy, often funny, and always accessible. Of everyone I had covered, I could count on Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to engage with me on a semi-human basis. While Musk would morph later into a troll-king-at-scale on Twitter, which he would rename X, he was among the few tech titans who did not fall back on practiced talking points, even if perhaps he was the one who most should have.

So, what did Musk think of Trump’s invitation? The meeting had no stated agenda, which made it clear to me that it had nothing to do with policy and everything to do with a photo op.

“You shouldn’t go,” I warned him. “Trump’s going to screw you.”

Musk disagreed. He told me he would attend, adding that he had already joined a business council for the newly elected president, too. When I brought up Trump’s constant divisive fearmongering and campaign promises to unravel progress on issues ranging from immigration to gay rights, Musk dismissed the threats.

I can convince him, he assured me. I can influence him, he told me.

Apparently, Musk thought that his very presence would turn the fetid water into fine wine, since he had long considered himself more than just a man, but an icon and, on some days, a god. Good luck with that, I thought to myself as we hung up.

Elon Musk on Racism, Bailing Out Trump, Hate Speech, and More - The Don Lemon Show (Full Interview) | March 18, 2024

When life gives you Lemon, sack him

CNN veteran publishes Musk interview that got his X show canceled

By Richard Currie | Tue 19 Mar 2024 // 15:30 UTC

https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/19/musk_lemon_interview/

Last year, two high-profile American news anchors lost their jobs. This year, CNN's Don Lemon joined Fox News's Tucker Carlson with a new show on Elon Musk's X.

Only one of those presenters still has the slot, however, and somehow it's the credulous, slack-jawed goon who cheerfully signal-boosted Russian propaganda that won out.

The disintegration of Lemon's (unsigned) contract to host the show on X was widely reported last week, but the former CNN newsman has now published the fruits of his labor – and the reason why the deal was canned.

To be fair, a serious journalist should probably have known better than to sit down with Musk and expect the agreement to remain intact, yet the interview shows that while you can take a man out of CNN, it is considerably harder to take CNN out of a man.

On that note, Lemon's "wishlist" to have the show run on X was reported to include a "free Tesla Cybertruck, a $5 million upfront payment on top of an $8 million salary, an equity stake in the multibillion-dollar company, and the right to approve any changes in X policy as it relates to news content" – so maybe it was a joke after all. Lemon strenuously denies these claims, we should add.

All this blatant shit-flinging between Lemon and X forms the backdrop for a toe-curlingly uncomfortable watch, with Musk's face reddening like a child being rebuked by their principal as Lemon constantly pushed back against the narratives he weaves online.

Because while Carlson will lap up even the most outlandish statements from Musk's mouth like a malnourished kitten, Lemon, as most actual journalists would, took the opportunity to hold the overpowered tycoon to account, questioning his behavior and past statements.

You know, the good stuff that Tesla stockholders just love to hear about.

After some back and forth about whether Twitter (as was) was lefty or righty, Lemon's own perceived stance, Musk's relationship with Donald Trump, and some Tesla Roadster guff, the conversation took an awkward turn when Lemon drilled into Musk's ketamine prescription to treat an occasional "negative chemical state."

While it has a reputation as a "horse tranquilizer" in illicit transactions, ketamine is also known to have a fast-acting though transient effect on depression. The problem was Lemon implying that Musk was dissociating with heroic doses while posting his infamous hot takes on X.

He also prodded about whether such issues might get in the way of SpaceX's government contracts and his companies' standing on Wall Street. To which Musk said: "From the standpoint of Wall Street, what matters is execution ... For investors, if there's something I'm taking, I should keep taking it."

It was downhill from there. Lemon barreled through all the recent Musk issues of concern without flinching, from his supposed endorsement of the Great Replacement Theory, to X's increasingly hands-off approach to content moderation, diversity, trans rights, the "woke mind virus," and ending on a particular sore point for Musk – advertising on X.

With regard to the first thorn, Musk said: "Don, the only reason I'm doing this interview is because you're on the X platform, and you asked for it. Otherwise I would not do this interview."

On moderation, he suggested that Lemon "loves" censorship. "Moderation is a propaganda word for censorship ... If something's illegal, we're going to take it down. If it's not illegal then we're putting the thumb on the scale and we're

Opinion | Elon Musk Is Preoccupied With Something He Doesn’t Understand

By Jamelle Bouie | March 23, 2024

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/23/opinion/elon-musk-great-replacement
.html

There is no particular mystery to unravel around the political views of Elon Musk, the billionaire technology and social media executive. He is — and for some time, has been — on the far right wing of American politics. He is an enthusiastic purveyor of far-right conspiracy theories, using his platform on the website X to spread a worldview that is as extreme as it is untethered from reality.

Musk is especially preoccupied with the racial makeup of the country and the alleged deficiency of nonwhites in important positions. He blames the recent problems at Boeing, for example, on its efforts to diversify its work force, despite easily accessible and widely publicized accounts of a dangerous culture of cost-cutting and profit-seeking at the company.

“Experts and critics say that Boeing’s woes have been years in the making,” reported CNN in January, “some pointing to the result of a shift in corporate culture that started at the top and put profits ahead of the safety and engineering prowess for which it was once praised, placing not only its future, but the passengers on its planes, at grave risk.”

Is diversity the problem at Boeing, or is it a shortsighted obsession with maximizing shareholder value at the expense of quality and safety? Musk, a wealthy shareholder in various companies — including his own, Tesla, which is being sued by Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for allegedly allowing racist abuse of some of its Black employees — says it’s diversity.

“It will take an airplane crashing and killing hundreds of people for them to change this crazy policy of DIE,” Musk wrote in January, deliberately misspelling the acronym D.E.I., meaning diversity, equity and inclusion.

Musk’s current obsession, as Greg Sargent observes in The New Republic, is the “great replacement,” a far-right conspiracy theory that liberal elites in the United States are deliberately opening the southern border to nonwhite immigration from Mexico, South and Central America in order to replace the nation’s white majority and secure permanent control of its political institutions.
https://newrepublic.com/article/180007/elon-musk-great-replacement-the
ory-hate-video

On X, Musk recently pinned a post to a slickly produced video that purports to expose a “Democrat open borders plan to entrench single-party rule,” in which Democrats shepherd millions of people into the United States and “keep them in the country at all costs.” Musk says, “This is actually happening!” The video had, at the time of this writing, well over 50 million views.

Musk is far from the first person to push the “great replacement” theory. It was featured in ads released by Representative Elise Stefanik of New York, a top Republican in the House. “Radical Democrats are planning their most aggressive move yet: a PERMANENT ELECTION INSURRECTION,” said one version of the advertisement. “Their plan to grant amnesty to 11 MILLION illegal immigrants will overthrow our current electorate and create a permanent liberal majority in Washington.”

The “great replacement” was part of the centerpiece of Tucker Carlson’s message to viewers during his time on Fox News. It is touted by a number of anti-immigrant, white nationalist and white supremacist groups. It was featured prominently at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017, where neo-Nazis chanted “Jews will not replace us.” And it has inspired at least four separate mass shootings, including the 2018 Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh (11 killed), the 2019 Christchurch shootings in New Zealand (51 killed), the El Paso shooting the same year (23 killed) and the 2022 supermarket shooting in Buffalo (10 killed).

It should go without saying that the “great replacement” is idiotic. There is no “open border.” There is no effort to “replace” the white population of the United States. Racial di

Judge tosses Elon Musk’s case - March 25, 2024

“Sometimes it is unclear what is driving a litigation,” wrote District Judge Charles Breyer, of the US District Court for the Northern District of California, in the order’s opening lines. “Other times, a complaint is so unabashedly and vociferously about one thing that there can be no mistaking that purpose.”

“This case represents the latter circumstance,” Breyer continued. He also said Musk was litigating in bad faith and denied his company an opportunity to amend and refile its case.

Because Musk is an asshole with too much money and time on his hands, but nothing to do, his lawyers will find a way to continue litigating.

Elon Musk Didn’t Want His Latest Deposition Released. Here It Is.

Apr 8, 2024, 01:00 PM EDT

Elon Musk was deposed last month over his role in allegedly promoting a false conspiracy theory that a 22-year-old Jewish man participated in a neo-Nazi brawl.

Musk tried to keep the deposition from going public, and perhaps for good reason: It did not go well for him.

The lawsuit alleges that Musk used his colossal social media platform to amplify a false far-right conspiracy theory linking 22-year-old Ben Brody to a brawl in Oregon between the neo-Nazi group Rose City Nationalists and the Proud Boys, a neo-fascist fight club.

Musk amplified the conspiracy theory repeatedly to his more than 180 million followers, suggesting Brody was a fresh-faced federal agent pretending to be a neo-Nazi in a “false flag situation,” a phrase used to suggest a harmful event was deliberately set up to misrepresent a group or person.

Did Elon Musk fib about SpaceX's Starlink breaking even? (yes)

By Victor Tangermann | Apr 10, 1:57 PM EDT

https://futurism.com/the-byte/huge-problem-spacex-starlink-profit

In a brief announcement on his social media platform last year, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk celebrated that the company's Starlink broadband service had "achieved breakeven cash flow."

"Starlink is also now a majority of all active satellites and will have launched a majority of all satellites cumulatively from Earth by next year," he said at the time.

But according to a damning new report by Bloomberg, Musk may have once again rigged the numbers in his favor by greatly underplaying the costs involved in launching the satellites, when in reality the company is losing "hundreds of dollars on each of the millions of ground terminals it ships."

According to Bloomberg's sources, SpaceX's accounting was "more of an art than a science" and the much-hyped system isn't actually profitable, despite Musk's assurances.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2024-04-10/is-elon-musk-s-star
link-profitable-spacex-satellites-are-money-losers?sref=YfHlo0rL

The company has kept its financials close to its chest, especially while fundraising. During a March press conference, SpaceX CFO Bret Johnsen appeared cagey, telling reporters in a carefully worded comment that "I don’t know that I want to quantify those numbers, but we are in positive cash flow and profitable territory for our satellite business now."

In short, is SpaceX's Starlink business cashflow positive, as Musk claims, or merely in "profitable territory"? The distinction could make all the difference for Musk's outsize plans for space colonization. The mercurial CEO has long argued that the internet satellite broadband arm of his space company will provide the funding necessary to get humans to Mars. According to Bloomberg, Starlink represents more than half of SpaceX's revenue this year.

As of now, SpaceX has launched 5,600 satellites into low-Earth orbit and is planning to launch tens of thousands more.

Despite eclipsing the total number of all operating satellites in Earth's orbit, Starlink isn't just struggling to cut even. Experts are concerned that trying to provide the entire globe with internet via satellites — instead of expanding coverage with cell towers where needed — could prove difficult, with speeds already beginning to decrease in 2022.

In other words, SpaceX will have to pump out untold numbers of satellites to keep up with quickly growing bandwidth demands.

More bad news. According to Bloomberg, all major US airlines have rejected SpaceX's Starlink to provide internet service on flights, though an exact reason as to why remains unclear.

Nonetheless, SpaceX has exceeded expectations when it comes to generating revenue over the years. Sales could grow from $4.7 billion a year ago to $15 billion this year, per Bloomberg's sources.

SpaceX may end up spinning off its internet service with a potential IPO. But that's still years out, according to company officials.

Is Musk's plan to colonize Mars nutty?

Getting to Mars isn’t enough: Why staying alive will be the biggest challenge.

SpaceX’s Starship is projected to be ready for a trip to Mars in the next 5 years. But are we? Colonizing space in the next few decades may seem like a forgone conclusion, but let's take a more honest look at the science.

An honest look at the science is exactly what Kelly and Zach Weinersmith, the authors of A City on Mars, are offering. These space optimists turned into space realists while researching the possibility of human habitats in outer space.

The environments we would encounter on other planets aren’t just harsher versions of what we have on earth. In some ways they’re actively hostile to any living being, more hostile than practically any environment on earth. From dramatic temperature swings to deadly cosmic radiation to bone degradation, here are the real – and often overlooked – factors we need to contend with if we’re going to be able to successfully incubate human life on another planet.

The only new model in Tesla’s lineup doesn’t have sufficient demand to run all the shifts? That’s very troubling but not surprising. I guess the decision to launch an $80,000-120,000 niche truck that’s worst in class in every regard except acceleration wasn’t the best plan. Maybe instead they should’ve been focusing on drastically improving the core lineup and adding additional models that would be easier to produce and potentially sell in the hundreds of thousands to a million units per annum. If the decision to can the $25,000 car in exchange for a “robotaxi” is even the least bit true the future of Tesla looks bleak. Robotaxis are years and years away not only due to their technical challenges that are so far from being solved but also due to government approvals and the market’s acceptance of such a product.

Maybe Elon will also learn that the anti-vax anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists he’s trying to be buddy-buddy with on Twitter aren’t exactly the EV buying type either. All he’s doing is turning off the people that actually have and would buy a Tesla. Elon needs to go. It would be best if he left on his own but that’s extremely unlikely to happen. The board is full of Elon apologists but maybe if they see their portfolio crashing that will motivate them to make a move they otherwise wouldn’t have done on a moral or ethical basis.

Musk has to go, yes. But the share price basically can‘t be saved that way either. It has been inflated by Musk‘s lies over many years. It will only know one way for a long time.

This was a crazy decision Musk made:

Elon Musk reportedly dismissed almost the entire Supercharger division of Tesla, including its head Rebecca Tinucci, after Tinucci refused to lay off workers beyond the planned numbers.

What Happened: Tinucci reportedly had a meeting with Musk to discuss the future of the charging network. This meeting was subsequent to a previous round of layoffs, where Tinucci had reduced the staff by 15% to 20%. However, Musk was not satisfied with the presentation and demanded additional layoffs. When Tinucci opposed it, arguing that it would negatively impact the business fundamentals, Musk reacted by terminating her and the entire 500-member team.

Time has passed and the crazy Musk decision is being partially undone:

Tesla Inc. has begun hiring back some of the almost 500 members of its Supercharging team that Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk dismissed late last month. Chief among the personnel who have returned is Max de Zegher, the director of charging for North America, according to people with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. De Zegher was one of the top managers after Rebecca Tinucci, the senior director Musk fired late last month along with virtually everyone else in the charging group.

Elon Musk's child is not confused about Elon: Musk’s recent statements crossed a line, she said.

“I think he was under the assumption that I wasn’t going to say anything and I would just let this go unchallenged,” Wilson said in a phone interview. “Which I’m not going to do, because if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide.”

Wilson said that, for as long as she could remember, Musk hasn’t been a supportive father. She said he was rarely present in her life, leaving her and her siblings to be cared for by their mother or by nannies even though Musk had joint custody, and she said Musk berated her when he was present.

“He was cold,” she said. “He’s very quick to anger. He is uncaring and narcissistic.”

I Took a Ride in a ‘Self-Driving’ Tesla and Never Once Felt Safe

The tech in Elon Musk’s electric vehicles is supposed to prevent accidents, but in several cases, it nearly caused one

August 19, 2024

https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/self-driving-tes
la-drive-1235079210/

When the “Full Self-Driving” setting is enabled in a Tesla, according to the automaker’s own description, the car “attempts to drive to your destination by following curves in the road, stopping at and negotiating intersections, making left and right turns, navigating roundabouts, and entering/exiting highways.”

“Attempts” would be the crucial word here, as I learned during an occasionally harrowing demonstration of FSD around surface streets and freeways in Los Angeles. While it’s true that the technology manages to impress at first, it doesn’t take long for severe and dangerous shortcomings to emerge. And, contrary to claims from exaggeration-prone Tesla CEO Elon Musk, it certainly didn’t seem safer than having an average human driver at the wheel.

One morning in early August, I hop into a 2018 Tesla Model 3 owned by Dan O’Dowd, founder of the Dawn Project. Easily the most outspoken critic of Tesla’s so-called autonomous driver-assistance features, O’Dowd — a billionaire who also co-founded Green Hills Software and made his fortune developing secure, hacker-proof systems for the U.S. military and government — established the Dawn Project to campaign “to ban unsafe software from safety critical systems” spanning healthcare, communications, power grids, and transportation. For several years, Tesla has been his primary target; O’Dowd has orchestrated one safety test after another, mounted a single-issue campaign for Senate, and run expensive Super Bowl commercials to spread his warnings against the company’s FSD software.

We experience the pitfalls of Tesla Vision several times during an hour-long drive. (A Tesla’s eight external cameras have a relatively low resolution of 1.2 megapixels. Higher-end iPhones have cameras that offer a resolution of 48 megapixels.) Once, the car tries to steer us into plastic bollard posts it apparently can’t see. At another moment, driving through a residential neighborhood, it nearly rams a recycling bin out for collection — I note that no approximate shape even appears on the screen. We also narrowly avoid a collision when trying to turn left at a stop sign: the Tesla hasn’t noticed a car with the right of way zooming toward us from the left at around 40 mph. Maltin explains that this kind of error is a function of where the side cameras are placed, in the vehicle’s B pillars, the part of the frame that separates the front and rear windows. They’re so far back that when a Tesla is stopped at an intersection, it can’t really see oncoming traffic on the left or right, and tries to creep forward, sometimes gunning it when it (falsely or not) senses an opportunity to move in. A human driver, of course, can peer around corners. And if a Tesla with FSD engaged does suddenly notice a car approaching from either side, it can’t reverse to get out of harm’s way.

After a while, you start to anticipate these mistakes. Maltin, who has plenty of experience testing FSD, frequently tenses up if a complicated or unusual driving task suddenly presents itself. But I notice a certain hesitancy and what I can only characterize as indecisiveness in the Tesla itself, like you’re being chauffeured by a student driver. It reliably slams on the brakes too hard instead of rolling through yellow lights, for example, and swerves unpredictably between lanes as if it can’t decide which it prefers. On the other hand, it operates well enough for five-minute stretches that you can be lulled into complacency.

Elon Musk’s Lawyers Accidentally Sent an Incredibly Sensitive Email to the Wrong People, Then Demanded They Delete It

All in a day's work for Team Elon.

Don't Look Back in Anger

In the midst of his chaotic purchase of Twitter, Elon Musk's attorneys accidentally sent a bunch of people the wrong email about his financial backing — and then aggressively demanded the recipients delete it.

As New York Times reporters Kate Conger and Ryan Mac note in a Vanity Fair-published excerpt from their new book about the Twitter buyout, the billionaire's team made the massive gaffe while it was still unclear whether Musk was actually going to pull off the sale.

"At one point, Musk’s lawyers... accidentally sent Twitter’s finance team a full spreadsheet of all the people and investment firms from which they solicited money," Conger and Mac wrote in "Character Limit," their forthcoming book about the deal. "That screwup was immediately followed by a legal threat to the Twitter recipients to delete the email and its contents."

Around the same time as the deal was in limbo in mid-2022, Twitter's financial officers had, as the book notes, developed a dark way to handle the uncertainty of Musk's closing.

"Members of Twitter’s finance teams had adopted a gallows humor approach to the deal," the reporters described, "and made a joke of trying to track Musk’s money."

"Its seeming infallibility in anyone's first five minutes of Full Self Driving (FSD) operation breeds a sense of awe that unavoidably leads to dangerous complacency. When drivers are operating with FSD engaged, driving with their hands in their laps or away from the steering wheel is incredibly dangerous. As you will see in the videos, the most critical moments of FSD miscalculation are split-second events that even professional drivers, operating with a test mindset, must focus on catching.”

"Whether it's a lack of computing power, an issue with buffering as the car gets "behind" on calculations, or some small detail of surrounding assessment, it's impossible to know. These failures are the most insidious. But there are also continuous failures of simple programming inadequacy, such as only starting lane changes toward a freeway exit a scant tenth of a mile before the exit itself, that handicaps the system and casts doubt on the overall quality of its base programming."

How Musk threatens America’s national security, and what must be done

His incitement to assassinate America’s commander-in-chief is only the most recent illustration

By Robert Reich | Sep 26, 2024

https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-elon-musk-threatens-national

Shortly after the apparent second assassination attempt against Trump, Elon Musk responded in a now deleted post: “And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala ?? ????”

Musk later said his post was intended as a joke. But it could be interpreted as a call to murder Biden and Harris — at least by one of the 198 million followers of Musk who initially received it. Presumably this is why the Secret Service is investigating it.

Under 18 U.S. Code Section 871, threatening a president or vice president or inciting someone to harm them is a felony that can result in a large fine and up to five years in prison.

Yet even as Musk posted a potential death threat against the sitting commander-in-chief, his multiple defense contracts with the U.S. government have given him access to highly sensitive information.

Reportedly, Musk has been given security clearance notwithstanding his admitted use of drugs (Musk says he has submitted to random drug testing at the request of the government), including smoking weed in public and using ketamine (for which he claims to have a prescription).

Quite apart from the drugs, when was the last time the U.S. government gave access to sensitive national security information to someone who posted a potential death threat against the president and vice president, even if he later called it a joke?

Underlying this is a broader question: When in history has one unelected individual held such sway over American national security?

Musk’s SpaceX has nearly total control of the world’s satellite internet through its Starlink unit. With little regulation or oversight, Musk has already put more than 4,500 Starlink satellites into orbit around the globe, accounting for more than half of all active satellites. Musk plans to have as many as 42,000 satellites in orbit in coming years.

Space X and its Starlink system have become strategically critical to American security. Starlink is providing connectivity to the U.S. Navy. The U.S. Space Force signed a $70 million contract late last year to provide it with military-grade low-earth-orbit satellite capabilities. According to Reuters, the National Reconnaissance Office, which oversees U.S. spy satellites, has a $1.8 billion contract with SpaceX.

This gives Musk — the richest person in the world — remarkable power. Single-handedly, he can decide to shut down a country’s access to Starlink and the internet. He also can also gain access to sensitive information gathered by Starlink. “Between, Tesla, Starlink & Twitter, I may have more real-time global economic data in one head than anyone ever,” Musk tweeted in April 2023.

Meanwhile, NASA has increasingly outsourced spaceflight projects to SpaceX, including billions in contracts for multiple moon trips and $843 million to build a vehicle that will take the International Space Station out of commission.

Conflicts of interest between Musk’s ventures around the world and U.S. national security abound, and they are multiplying.

When Putin attacked Ukraine, Musk and SpaceX’s Starlink provided Ukraine with internet access, enabling the country to plan attacks and defend itself. (This was not a charitable move by Musk; most of the 20,000 terminals in the country were funded by outside sources such as the U.S. government, the United Kingdom, and Poland).

But in the fall of 2022, when Ukraine entered territory contested by Russia, Musk and Space X abruptly severed the connectivity. Musk explained at the time that “Starlink was barred from turning on satellite beams in Crimea at the time, because doing so would violate U.S. sanctions against Russia!”

But who was Musk to decide what actions would or would not violate U.S. sanctions?

In fact, Musk was trying to push Ukraine to agree to Russia’s terms f

Fuck off, Robert "Third" Reich.

You guys are fuckin' goofballs.

Elon Musk saved free speech online. You're all just still butthurt that Twitter isn't an Alt-Left disinformation playground anymore.

Your censorship is not welcome here. If you don't like that, might I suggest that you move to one of the countries that we're going to be deporting all the illegals to and see if you like it better over there. You won't be missed.

All That Twitters | Who Owns a Piece of Elon Musk?

By Jacob Silverman | September 26, 2024

https://thebaffler.com/latest/all-that-twitters-silverman

It cost $44 billion for Elon Musk to buy Twitter—a transaction that he initiated, then tried to back out of, before acceding under legal pressure. It was a costly acquisition, highly leveraged. The money was cobbled together from $20 billion in Musk’s assets, $13 billion in loans from big banks (which now can’t move them off their books), $6 billion in loans to Musk himself, and more than $7 billion in commitments from investors who would be shareholders of the new private enterprise.

In a May 2022 SEC filing, Musk listed a number of his planned Twitter co-investors and their equity stakes, so we had some idea who was helping him buy the company. Other reporting—including a public show of support from Saudi Prince al-Waleed bin Talal and text messages produced for a Delaware court that revealed a $1 billion commitment from billionaire tech luminary Larry Ellison—helped fill in the picture. But once Twitter went private that October and Musk set about slashing and burning the divisions of the company that offended him, there was no definitive list of its shareholders, or the names of the trusts, funds, LLCs, and other corporate entities holding their shares.

This August, a federal judge ruled in favor of a motion filed on my behalf by Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press to unseal a list of shareholders that had been filed by the company, since renamed X, under seal as part of one of the many civil lawsuits that it faces in the wake of Musk’s disastrous turn at the helm. We now have a complete list—dated April 2023—of who helped Musk acquire Twitter. I’ve argued that this list is important for a number of reasons, but here’s just one: according to the Washington Post, anyone who invested more than $250 million received special access to sensitive data about the company and its users. Who pitched in that much? Saudi Arabia, Qatar, a mysterious UAE-based venture capital firm, a lawless crypto exchange, and CIA contractor Ellison. I’m sure they’re happy with their access. What follows is a rough taxonomy of X shareholders—a half-serious attempt to categorize and account for the moneymen helping boost Musk Inc. It takes a lot of cash to prop up an oligarch, and some of it comes from unsavory sources.

Elon Musk is an alleged horse enthusiast and compulsive shitposter who was one of several executive producers on the Hollywood film Thank You for Smoking.

Its funny, I was just wondering where we would be today, if Musk hadn't sprung Twitter from our deepstate's clutches.

But in SECOND'S upside down world, Musk is a techonfascist because he broke Twitter free of our government censorship machine, and allowed more free speech.

Oh, BTW ... rich people invest in acquisitions? Wow. Color me shocked. Not.

I guess you missed this part where Musk ruins the business: Fidelity bought pieces of X for more than twenty different funds, an incredible show of faith in Musk’s over-leveraged buyout. It’s since marked down its X holdings more than 71 percent, reflecting the emerging belief that, with Musk’s chaotic management and his enormous debt obligations, this was one of the worst takeover deals in tech history.

The previous management of Twitter kept the Nazis off of Twitter. Since Musk is a Nazi, he sued advertisers who did not want to be associated with Musk's political beliefs:

Fortune 500 companies are not, uh, woke.
https://slate.com/business/2024/08/elon-musk-sues-advertisers-ads-fund
ing-sales-x-twitter.html

Musk’s acquisition of Twitter, which made almost all of its money on ads, was bad business from the start. Musk campaigned to buy the company on a platform of restoring “free speech” for all users, which meant rolling back the content rules and enforcement procedures that the old guard had put in place to both keep advertisers happy and make sure Twitter wasn’t a cesspool of hate speech and misinformation.

Immediately after taking control of Twitter, Musk began removing content rules and allowed swarms of formerly banned individuals back on the site, including Nazis . . .

Yes, Musk makes a terrible businessman. He was bought out from PayPal, which he founded, bc of his chaotic influence. That is between him and his investors, don't you think?

However, one thing the article fails to mention is that Twitter significantly overstated its subscriber base, which was inflated by bots and fake accounts, which inflated its purchase price. When Musk found out the truth, he attempted to back out, but was forced to pay for a fraudulently portrayed business.

Another thing that the article doesn't describe: WTF is this lawsuit about? Filed by

Second and the cult he belongs to does not care about anything else surrounding Musk, whatsoever. All they want to do is tear him down. They'd be happy if somebody started taking shots at him too. By any means necessary.

Elon saved this country from the people who own MSNBC and NYT and thought they had the entire internet locked down too.

Elon Musk fears for the future of the republic

By Kevin Drum | September 30, 2024 – 2:34 pm

https://jabberwocking.com/elon-musk-fears-for-the-future-of-the-republ
ic/

Elon Musk went nuts a few years ago. Nobody knows quite why, but it seems to have been brought on by frustration with California business rules; his dealings with unions; and liberals making fun of him. Since then he's become obsessed with the "woke mind virus," childbirth rates, and illegal immigrants voting for Democrats. The latter has produced a tsunami of tweets and retweets like this one:

Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!

Let me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast…
More at https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1840409051357696324

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) September 29, 2024

This particular tweet is a sober-minded graduate thesis compared to most of them, but it lays out the argument in simple terms:

1. Democrats are deliberately opening the border to an army of illegal immigrants and asylum seekers.

2. ???

3. They will all vote for Democrats and democracy will be over.

The magic in the middle is that somehow all these illegal immigrants become citizens and start voting in large numbers. How? That's something of a mystery, since even the most liberal immigration legislation requires a waiting period of 10-20 years for citizenship. The politician who risks his career over a possible advantage a decade away hasn't been born. Most of them think of the "long term" as next year.

Want more? Virtually all naturalized citizens have been in the country for many years and almost none of them arrived illegally. And anyway, of those who did most aren't even big fans of Democrats. A KFF poll suggests that among immigrants who are "likely undocumented," only 18% say the Democratic Party represents their views. This is not the stuff of landslides.

Musk seems like he's too smart to believe his own nonsensical tweets. Does he, really? Or is it all an act? But if so, why? What's the endgame? Quicker FAA approval for his rocket launches? Starlink expansion into the hinterlands? Letters patent declaring him Emperor of Mars?

Or is he just nuts?

You never shout about How To Remove Illegals. Will it be fast and cheap, done in months? May I suggest secret concentration camps, gas chambers and crematoriums as the fastest and cheapest way for Trump to do this. Or, he could slowly build prisons to hold 30 million illegals until their trials in tens of thousands of courtrooms across America. Then Trump negotiates with other countries to accept Trump's illegal 30 million. There might not be a place for all those illegals in another country. For example, no country wants the Palestinians that Israel wishes to deport. Well, the Israelis can't do crematoriums because of history, but for Americans crematoriums are a final solution to the illegal alien problem.
