Iain Gray , News Letter : Tech mogul Elon Musk encouraged “repeated and loud” protests ahead of Northern Ireland’s immigration demonstrations, some of which flared into violence. The owner of X, formerly Twitter, went on to comment that “only Restore Britain can save Britain” over the course of comments on a horrific knife attack carried out by a Sudanese man on the streets of north Belfast. For context, Restore Britain is the political party for people who view Nigel Farage as a soft and cuddly liberal. Zachary Basu , Axios : Asked Wednesday why the world’s richest man spends his days in a bitter online culture war instead of enjoying his billions on a beach, Musk posted : “Nothing else matters if civilization falls.” Musk’s definition of “civilization” is white people . He loves to cast himself as a saviour of humanity , but juggling multiple CEO positions apparently leaves him with enough time in the world to tweet with abandon. Musk has zero relationship with the people he is inciting to cause harm, yet his behaviour and his companies’ track records have no bearing on his finances or his influence. He will become the world’s first trillionaire tomorrow morning. He is just a guy, though, with a cushy white-collar job and an internet connection. It is upsetting to be reminded that much of our world is run by shameless psychopaths. ⌥ Permalink
