    Yesterday he went to Israel and they made a deal regarding Starlink and cpntrol of social media. Get ready for massive removals of pro-Palestinian content.

      Strange how this guy keeps showing up in war zones to help facilitate imperial communications. At this point it's really hard to believe that he doesn't have CIA handlers, and he's probably had them for twenty years or more.

        Shouldn't it be the other way around? The US state serves as the legal and armed branch of their bourgeoisie, and Musk is as bourgeois as they come.

        Isn't it more likely he'd be helping imperial communications because he, his rich friends and his whole class benefit from it, with voluntary cooperation from those agencies?

    So much for the free speech banner of his. Plus murder is more broad than what he says and its quite specific if you did something with the predictable outcome that somebody will die, like shooting an explosive in a residential area, and somebody dies it is murder, just imagine and guy throws a grenade through his bedroom window without looking, and somebody dies, this is murder in the second(I believe) degree, so if someone is shooting at residential areas and kills people it is murder indeed

            After buying twitter he doesn't need to worry about people archiving his dumb shit or getting his account suspended.

    Capitalists protecting capitalists/ colonizers. There are no intelligence conspiracies, Musk is just a opportunistic racist freak, it's what the system allows to get to the top. If it wasn't him in particular, it would just be another "make a racist video game character" cut out.

    I guess the Israelis are officially regaining control of the narrative. We had a good run, a full month and a half of being able to tell the truth about what's happening over there.

      They still lost the narrative for this generation. Their pants fell off and we all saw them naked and saw how disgusting they were. I don't think narratives can counter the images we saw.

      Perhaps I am being too optimistic.

        I hope you're right, but they'll do what every abuser does. Lay low for a bit, then insist they have "changed." and I worry that the western public who were shocked will immediately fall for it.

        Oh no I agree. 12,000 people are dead over a terrorist attack that's looking more and more like a false flag and we have fucking high def photos and videos of it. There's no way things are going back to business as usual.
