“Elon Musk destroyed USAID as a mechanism for killing off as many of the global poor and non-white as he can before they kill him first (as he, insanely, believes)” is not a conspiracy theory. In truth, it’s very hard to conclude anything else.

For a certain kind of white man, there is no fear more primal than the fear that the people they have abused will gain power and treat them the same way.

I feel very confident that a core Elon Musk belief is that he’d better kill off as many Africans as he can while they’re still helpless children.

I suspect the core Musk belief is the cultist idea of a technologically produced master race of which he is the lead eugenicist, and being rewarded as the world's richest person reinforces his belief that he is on to something.

Which is crazy to think about because if there's one place in the world where someone could sell a shitload of Satellite Internet service (and probably solar, another of his previous businesses), it would be Africa.

One thing I’ve learned over the last decade or so is just how many businesspeople aren’t remotely concerned about their own business interests if they clash with their personal petty grievances.

The neat thing for Elon Musk about mass-murdering the global poor he’s convinced are out to get him: Since he’s doing it via the mechanism of killing USAID and not by personally shoving them into death camps, it’s thus just abstract enough that he’s bargaining he’ll be allowed to get away with it.

I mean, “recommending that a government program be cut” isn’t actually illegal, no matter how obviously important that program is, how malicious your motives, or how servilely the elected government adheres to your whims, so I’m not sure how you nail him on that

He will. There are ZERO people outside this app and some very progressive media outlets that even talk about it let alone demand consequences for it. He obviously should be talked about as a genocidal maniac but most people aren't even comfortable calling his blatant white supremacy what it is

Funny, cause that has further persuaded me to vote for whichever Democrat loudly, authentically promises to send Elon to the Hague so he can face the long list of plaintiffs in his crimes against humanity proceedings.

it's really hard to say with musk though i think he vacillates between "i'm gonna get away with it" and the more truthful "i am damned for all time and they're coming for me"

He still knows he's killing people, otherwise he wouldn't be so defensive. In his interview w/ the Economist(?), his position was: No one died If anyone died, it's the fault of other billionaires not replacing the money No funding was actually cut USAID was bad, so dismantling it was good
