Beyond the surface-level nonsense of the “great replacement” theory lies a more subtle issue.

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.

    Are you seriously equating my opinion on boring and repetitive “Musk bad” posts to reposting Nazi political memes and then implying that I should be shot?

    Because if so, at least one of us has lost touch with reality.

      I thought you meant that “he”, Musk, was just “having an opinion”. He is posting nazi propaganda (great replacement BS).

      You’re getting downvoted because you’re saying we should somehow ignore a highly powerful figure who is posting nazi propaganda; that’s a terrible opinion

      Edit: I also could have worded my comment a lot better. By “you” I meant whoever posts nazi apology, which you didn’t do with your comment, sorry for the misdirected violence.

        Ok fair enough.

        I stand by opinion though. The best way to piss off Musk is to make sure he doesn’t get any of your money.

        If you don’t like Musk’s opinions then the worst thing you could do is keep repeating them. Ignore him, no matter how much it sucks.
