Many social media posts by Tesla CEO on his platform are indiscernible from those of white supremacists, say experts

Elon Musk’s longtime fixation on a white racial majority is intensifying. The richest man in the world posted about how the white race was under threat, made allusions to race science or promoted anti-immigrant conspiracy content on 26 out of 31 days in January, according to the Guardian’s analysis of his social media output. The posts, made on his platform X, reflect a renewed embrace of what extremism experts describe as white supremacist material.

“Whites are a rapidly dying minority,” Musk said on 22 January, a short time before taking the stage at the World Economic Forum in Davos, while reposting an Irish anti-immigrant influencer’s video about demographic change.

Musk’s posts included him repeatedly claiming white people face systemic discrimination, endorsing the conspiracy that there is an ongoing genocide against white people in countries around the world and promoting a claim that white people would be “slaughtered” by non-whites if they become a demographic minority.

    Bro, you got infinite money. You could be at the beach. You could be traveling the world staying in 5 star hotels. You could attend any concert you want, anywhere you want. You could be gambling millions in a Monaco casino like a Bond villain. You could live in a custom penthouse inside a giant golden blimp.

    Why did you decide you want to be a pathetic loser?

      I’m sure there are a bunch of guys with infinite money that we never hear about because all they do is lounging at the beach.

      I’m pretty sure he has the money to have any concert he wants put on for him with the exact lineup he wants.

      Might have to add a few extra b’s though to get some hold out artists who would refuse. They would cave though and at worst donate the money if they were that disgusted
