Pray for Elon Musk
The Stream ^ | 25 Apr, 2022 | John Zmirak

Posted on 05/23/2022 4:48:38 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Musk will face worse than Donald Trump, or Kyle Rittenhouse, or Brett Kavanaugh did.

I’m as excited as any other fan of the First Amendment to see Elon Musk take over Twitter. But then I was really pumped when Donald Trump won the election in 2016. Since then, I’ve learned that victories don’t mean much. Not when your enemies are as ruthless, entrenched, vindictive and sociopathic as ours.

We win battle after battle, then somehow lose the war. We play by the Marquess of Queensbury rules and knock our opponent out cold. But the ref revives him after a count of 20 or 30. He hands the guy a switchblade, so he can stab us in the gut. Then the ref awards him the match on points, disqualifies us for cheating, and tries to send us to prison. That’s American Civics 101, circa 2022.

The Game Isn’t Rigged. It Isn’t Even a Game Anymore That’s how things went for the Solidarity movement when it took on Poland’s Communist regime. And it’s how things work now in the West. The game isn’t rigged. It’s not even a game, but a ritualized humiliation ceremony, carefully scripted and ruthlessly directed by sadists.

Please set aside 10 minutes and go read the comments of the indispensable Revolver News on why our Oligarchy will pull out every stop, twist every law, weaponize every resource it has from leftist judges to unfireable bureaucrats to stop Musk from succeeding. As Revolver writes:

SNIP

The American oligarchical regime won’t just try to stop Musk, but to break him — destroy him professionally and personally, make an example of him as it did of the January 6 protestors.

I pray that he’s ready.

As Revolver writes:

[I]f Musk opts for the path of boldness and glory, he should be prepared for historic backlash from the regime. The entire system would mobilize against Twitter reflecting the same cancellation strategies the Regime systematically employs to control politicians, websites, major businesses, and even countries. Twitter would get the “George Floyd” treatment on steroids. The Regime would employ the “George Floyd” tool recently used to “cancel” Russia, but directed with laser-like focus on a single company and its lone brilliant, iconoclast leader.

It’s breathtaking how deep the swamp is. No whistleblowers. Sad. If only there be ten righteous comes to mind.

They don’t have to get to tricky with Musk. He has a lot to lose. They can attack his ventures, or at least threaten them, whenever they want leverage. I’m not just talking about the IRS, I’m talking all o the alphabet-soup deep state. What did we learn from Trump, who was still a private citizen when they spied on him.

They probably already have moles inside of Musk’s various enterprises already. When well established, they’ll send in the trolls to stir some pots here and there and see how they can trip them up.

They’re not called process crimes if the media is your accomplice. And when you’re in the for-profit private sector, the old entertainment industry adage that all publicity is good publicity doesn’t hold water.

F the Queensbury rules. Go for the throat. Or some serious kidney punches. Whatever it takes.

“destroy him professionally and personally...”

__________

Hard to do to someone who already has “**** you money”.

Whose opinion does he really concern himself with other than his own?

Are virtue-signaling Tesla drivers going to have to move on to a new make now? Having already moved on from their Toyota Prions (a.k.a., “Spike Protiens”) and found the Chevy Volt uninteresting.

It’s interesting to watch Musk, whom I’ve been very leary.

However, the crazy leftists, even the all in on the “virtuous” EV’s now hate him.

Maybe now all things electric aren’t virtuous anymore? It’s really difficult to l live in their world
As the threshold for what is truth and acceptable changes by the minute.

So true.

At least difficult to live without accepting others telling you what to think.

Over on Facebook I dumped 2 science type groups since the Twitter thing blew up. They were in Musk’s corner for years, but when he tried to buy twitter suddenly they just immediately flipped and did everything they could to harm his reputation and achievements.

It really was so obvious and blatant that every story they posted they were called out mercilessly for it, which I heartily piled on to.

The writers and site admins may be big libs there, but a bunch of people that live for logic and facts and are interested in those types of posts can see through that crap in an instant. Not your typical sheep, I wonder how many like me unjoined the groups since then, be interesting to see the numbers.

Politics aren't real. They're puppets.

He as in all of Gods creation deserve our prayers. But he knew what he was getting into when he started down this path.

This is a month old.

I posted it, even though it is a month old, because it was very perceptive about how the left would react to Musk and it is still ramping up. John called it about what the left would do.

Best summary of the Woke left I’ve seen. The linked AG article is pretty good, as well.

I liked the linked AG article as well. In fact, I posted it on FR when it was first posted on AG.

“They were in Musk’s corner for years, but when he tried to buy twitter suddenly they just immediately flipped and did everything they could to harm his reputation and achievements.”

You witnessed Twitter bots in action. These bots are controlled by a few psychotic, leftist trolls who have invaded, taken over and compromised thousands of computers owned by innocent victims.

That’s why Musk is talking about bots and looking at requiring that Twitter users be verified. Verification would destroy botmasters and their illegal bot farms.

I’m in favor of states making bot attacks a felony with $10 million fines and 25 years in state prison.

A few days ago, during a time of prayer, I felt a strong encouragement to pray for Elon Musk. As I prayed I felt to pray that he would turn to God for wisdom. I believe God has big plans for Elon, but Elon will also need our prayers. I came across this blog by searching for others who might be feeling led to pray for him. I can not say I have a clear outcome in mind, or even a desired outcome, but rather simply pray for him.

I’ve seen it on Reddit and Youtube as well. Musk was tech Jesus up until a couple months ago there and suddenly there are tons of exposes and hate threads out the piehole.
