While on the surface elon appears to be doing things, he is just helping to usher in the technocratic dystopia from the other side (assuming left-right politics, from the right)
No matter who wins, it's going to lead to more surveillance and reduced freedoms, either overtly (via the left based on current day trends) or nuanced (via the right). Ultimately both socialist political groups
That he's been allowed to be so public and not instantly offed or disappeared is quite a strong case for him being controlled. Or if you want to give him the benefit of the doubt, he's unwittingly nudging things along in the direction the oligarchs want
He still is a big supporter of government-run nations as the orthodox; the way the world operates at present, so that is untrustworthy in my eyes
I don't get this attitude. If you think any favorable development is an op (because why would the feds allow it otherwise?) then you may as well write off politics and camp in the woods a la Thoreau.
Elon is a technocrat with grandiose materialistic visions of humanity so he is potentially dangerous, but his benefits outweigh his risks at the moment.
There is no such thing as right wing socialism.
Makes sense if you view left-right as the uniparty
Left and right are not subjective labels. They are directions on an axis. The uniparty is all about control - no matter what label they use or dogma they spout they are leftists, but the propaganda, the horseshoe theory is a lie.
The idea that somehow the right, which is anti-government, wraps around to become socialism, is a malicious lie built to demoralize. The goal of that lie is to convince normies that "both sides are the same so nothing matters" and to subvert easily deceived dimwits from actual right wing movements.
