His brain chip ideas are separate from the fact Twitter is censored and blocks participants for political reasons and he proposes no censorship.
Thank you for posting.
Elon Musk is a corporatist (who took $4.9 Billion in taxpayer subsides for three companies).
Elon Musk is a hedonist (who flouts all conservative moral imperatives).
Elon Musk is a transhumanist (who owns Neuralink, which tortures experimental animals with brain chips).
I concluded the man was a “grifter” (as some right-wing pundits then labeled him) back in 2008. Since I am not envious of the wealthy as such, I then promptly forgot about him until he became yet another desperate attempt by the cookie-cutter conservatives to convert an overt enemy of Natural Law - that created by the Creator of our “unalienable rights” - into an ally out of a need for some sort of hero or savior.
I consider that self-proclaimed hophead (with his smug $420/share and $54.20/share jokes) a dangerously deranged person, and I do not trust him at all. Or, rather, I trust him to do only what is in the interest of Elon Musk. Maybe that thrills Ayn Randian Objektivists, but it does not thrill me.
If any of you want to revere the man, that is your choice and your mistake. This lifelong conservative and ordained minister refuses to do so, and will use his Freedom of Speech to expose Elon Musk for who and what he is.
For instance, Elon Musk was not a founder of Tesla:
Tesla was founded by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning in July 2003. Elon Musk bought his way into the company with $6.5 Million in February 2004.
For instance, Elon Musk was not a founder of Confinity (PayPal):
Confinity (later PayPal) was founded by Peter Thiel, Luke Nosek and Max Levchin in December 1998. X[.]com, was founded by Elon Musk in March 1999; it was merged with Confinity in March 2000. The pre-existing business model of Confinity (PayPal) became the sole focus of the new entity.
I see media on both sides of the aisle repeatedly describe him as a founder of either or both; that is historically false. He may be an able entrepreneur, but he did not do the original engineering and innovating that enabled either of those companies.
Yet he gets (and takes) the major credit for each.
P.S.
Why do so many on the ostensible right, who found Anthony Fauci and his Beagles repugnant, have no problem with Elon Musk and his Pigs and Monkeys?
P.P.S.
I suggest all who are excessively enamored of this adherent of Scientism read “That Hideous Strength” by C. S. Lewis. Lewis saw transhumanism coming 70 years ago.
Elon is promoting such things.
A friend with MS tried to get an improved life through an implant.
No Elon doesn't want to implant every brain.
The implants are problem solvers.
You’re full of it.
Go to the WEF YouTube channel. There’s a bunch of Harari’s videos there. It’s crazy stuff. He believes in the transhumanist ManGod (homo deus).
Nah, It’ll Be Great!
/\
Ok, I’ll admit it.
That made me laugh.
( I’m not going to be here though )
I deaf friend has an implant. He disconnects it in a storm.
A friend with MS tried to get an improved life through an implant.

Those are good things, yes.
But the rest of that trans crowd , and what they are working to do,,,,, not so good.
And musk IS part of it.
Joebot.xyz has an extensive list of all these guys writings and speeches.
Agree. The sensational headline is clearly written to provoke contempt for Musk. Funny how no one raise the alarm before he acquired Twitter.
They're out to do a Trump-like hit job on Musk. Before Trump ran for president most people liked him. Before Musk bought Twitter, he was liked too. Like Trump, every article written about Musk will now be an expose of his alleged crimes.
Musk derangement syndrome....?
The enemy of my enemy....is...my frenemy???
I announced to the family, now decades ago, that I had no intention in participating in the 21st century, so I probably should not comment. However, when I read, “Cate Blanchett is the latest left-wing Hollywood star to sound the alarm on Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter”, I then think it can’t be all that bad.
Well, you have to be very alert about who you follow or admire.
Elon Musk has seven children? With three different women?
And he doesn’t live with any of them?
He is too busy saving the world, I guess.
Providing for your children financially is important. But Elon is not what I consider a “good role model”.
Yup, neuro-link. It’s not a chip, its an implant that goes in as a small mesh and opens up to cover the brain. There is some technology that is really going to help a lot of people. Who the good/bad guys will be revealed in how they use it.
Except he DOESN'T.
Pure disinformation.
Who the heck is Yuval Harari?
A far left just?
And why should conservatives listen to this character?
Yup.
Really amusing to watch the deranged left lose their minds.
Except his first 6 children were with his first wife that he was married to for a long time.
And she wanted a divorce because Musk was too busy running two companies which were both facing bankruptcy at the time.
Musk is the good guy here.
Stop spreading disinformation.
"Honest" Nigerian huh? Dont make me laugh.
It's worse than that. A certifiable lunatic.
You forget to mention Musk paid a staggering $11 BILLION in taxes last year alone, by far the highest taxes paid by any American in history. More than covers any EV subsidies Tesla buyers may have received. Plus Tesla doesn’t get EV subsidies anymore. Haven’t for 3 years
