"He's not a fascist, he's just a contrarian" they say, as he threatens to jail his own employees and also random scientists
@dfeldman A man of Musk's stature in society can never be a fascist. The media gatekeepers of the polite world will continue to move the goalposts as far as they have to in order to enforce this simple dictate. It is axiomatic: The ultra-wealthy can never be evil, and probably not even garden variety bad. The media types live in a sharply oligarchic social bubble and will twist themselves into completely impossible shapes to avoid seeing their lives or their roles for what they are.

People are freaking out over Trump & Musk, but it’s like watching someone going “doc doc I’m having trouble with back pain and get out of breath going up stairs give me an inhaler & a back brace” when they are a 400lbs smoker.
