He's shown himself to be a total white supremacist neo-nazi. He backed AfD. He's spent millions on political campaigns teeming with hate speech. We can't let him walk away from that.

Really, this isn't just a Musk issue, it's a billionaire issue. It's a plutocratic class issue. They want to keep their power, and as soon as hierarchy-enforcing extremist far-right movements form, they'll be right there to bankroll and support them. The patrician class is completely adversarial to the notion of society based on equality rather than privilege, and they will bring all their resources to bear to put down societies based on community and equal treatment.

Also, we've seen Musk's entire history is getting funding by lying, and making inspirational promises on which he won't deliver. Musk is the same kind of flim-flam artist as Trump, the same kind of shapeshifter as JD Vance or Lindsey Graham.

And then he makes cars that run people over, and rockets that shake houses apart, and trucks that cut people in half.

Musk needs to be separated from his capital. In this case the means of production very much needs to be seized and restored to the people.

Pink Floyd suggested the Fletcher Memorial Home (for Colonial Wasters of Life and Limb). Musk would be happy there.

Couldn't have said it better.

Sure, but let's just do all billionaires instead.

Nobilities tend to inter-marry with whatever warlord or state takes control of the realm. It's why bloodlines can end up so weird with them.
