The most terrifying thing about Elon Musk--and hopefully something that will wake people up--is that he elucidates the sheer potential force of capital by so brazenly using it to forward an ideology. Some media platform is coaxing the overton window in a direction that makes you uncomfortable? Literally pay to shut it down. When you're that rich it's illegal for people to refuse to sell you what you demand to own

Thanks and glad to see it. As a Jewish man who has some expertise on how disinformation and propaganda work, I am really glad to see some action taken on this.

Thank you for this. I didn't realize he had ramped up since buying Twitter. I just assumed he had always been like that. It's scary to realize that someone with that much power and influence can pivot into fascism so quickly.

At least, Elon has been sincere in his attempts. I respect his incentives for trying.
