Links - 10th May 2026 (3 - Hating Elon Musk)

Joel Berry on X - "The beautiful thing about X is that false Leftist narratives, ones the media used to pick up and run with until the truth came out sometimes weeks or even years later, can now be shot down in 30 seconds."
Jesse Kelly on X - "This is exactly why Elon Musk fields as many death threats as Donald Trump himself. The communist requires total control of the information space. If even an inch of daylight gets through, his world of lies can come apart. Elon buying X was perhaps a mortal wound for them."

Thread by @mualphaxi on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "Biggest unforced political error of all time? Biden banned Elon Musk from the WH EV summit and then credited GM , “you electrified the industry… you led” “…when Biden made this remarks, Tesla delivered 115,000 EVs in the US… GM produced just 26” Reap what you sow. To that point Elon had exclusively voted for Democrats. And in one moment he suddenly saw that the bosses of the Democratic Party hated him, wanted to destroy him, and that they were puppets of the corrupt UAW union. Even Biden’s staff couldn’t get him to recognize Tesla. “Eventually Musk began to feel not just frozen out by the White House but also persecuted by it.” Gee I wonder which 7 ridiculous federal investigations would lead him to think that?"

Elon Musk Declares ‘Cisgender’ a Slur on Free Speech Twitter
Of course left wingers claim he's a hypocrite. Weird. Left wingers used to claim that freedom of speech wasn't the same as freedom of reach, and that private companies could do whatever they want. Those who use the term (in a non-targeted way) aren't even being banned (as they would've been with Old Twitter) - just having that tweet deprioritised

DogeDesigner on X - "𝕏 is the #1 news app in Brazil on the AppStore. Alexandre de Moraes is trying to suspend the only source of truth in Brazil."

Marco Foster on X - "Jennifer Welch: “l just think it’s really important to remind everybody all the time that Elon Musk is a fucking immigrant that doesn’t pay taxes who is a parasite off the American taxpayer”"
Matt Walsh on X - "The leftist mind in a nutshell. A white immigrant billionaire who makes rocket ships and electric cars is a “parasite” but an unemployed black Somali immigrant who scams the welfare system is an integral contributor to American culture who we must welcome and praise at all times."

Joe Rogan Podcast News on X - "AOC: "Elon Musk is not a scientist, he’s not an engineer, he’s a billionaire conman.""
Yatharth on X - "John Carmack: Elon is definitely an engineer. He is deeply involved with technical decisions at SpaceX and Tesla. He doesn’t write code or do CAD today, but he is perfectly capable of doing so.
Robert Zubrin: When I met Elon it was apparent to me that although he had a scientific mind and he understood scientific principles, he did not know anything about rockets. Nothing. That was in 2001, by 2007 he knew everything about rockets – he really knew everything, in detail. You have to put some serious study in to know as much about rockets as he knows now. This doesn't come just from hanging out with people.
Eric Berger: Elon is the chief engineer in name and reality.
Josh Boehm: Elon is both the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer of SpaceX, so of course he does more than just some very technical work. He is integrally involved in the actual design and engineering of the rocket, and at least touches every other aspect of the business. Elon is an engineer at heart, and that’s where and how he works best.
Garrett Reisman: He’s obviously skilled at all different functions, but certainly what really drives him and where his passion really is, is his role as Chief Engineer. That’s the part of the job that really plays to his strengths.
Tom Mueller: Elon and the Propulsion department are leading development of the SpaceX engines, particularly Raptor.
Kevin Watson: Elon is brilliant. He’s involved in just about everything. He understands everything. If he asks you a question, you learn very quickly not to go give him a gut reaction. He wants answers that get down to the fundamental laws of physics. One thing he understands really well is the physics of the rockets. He understands that like nobody else. The stuff I have seen him do in his head is crazy. He can get in discussions about flying a satellite and whether we can make the right orbit and deliver Dragon at the same time and solve all these equations in real time. It’s amazing to watch the amount of knowledge he has accumulated over the years."

A. Zap — The cruelty of racist white men. - "Does anyone else remember when Elon was like "if anyone knows how to end world hunger for 6 billion USD, I'll fund it" and UNICEF was like "we're going to spend a month to make a plan to end world hunger for 6 billion USD and Elon is going to fund it" and Elon was like "actually, nah" and then bought Twitter instead? I think that was one of the worst things I'll ever see in my life." <

br>"I still think that should be the thing for which he's the most famous. It should be brought up every time he's mentioned. In any news article, any interview, any history book. "Elon Musk, who was offered a chance to end world hunger and turned it down." Put it on his fucking gravestone."
Left wingers are delusional as usual and rewrite history to justify their hate, stupidity and spitefulness.

Meme - Warren Redlich - Chasing Dreams 🇺🇸 @WR4NYGov: "Total global government spending in 2024 is approximately $42 trillion USD. Elon's net worth is 1% of that. If Elon's net worth would solve all these problems, why haven't the world's governments solved them already? Don't tell me governments are good for society."
Harry Eccles @Heccles94: "Elon musk's personal wealth could: Solve world hunger, twice on earth, twice Provide access to clean water for everyone Vaccinate all children worldwide for a decade, eradicate malaria + TB, with change. Reforest the Amazon Don't tell me billionaires are good for society"

Pop Base on X - "Billie Eilish calls out Elon Musk for not using his wealth to aid humanity and resolve global issues: “f***ing pathetic p***y b**** coward”"
Libs of TikTok on X - "Hey @billieeilish, Elon Musk literally offered the UN’s World Food Program $6 BILLION if they can publicly lay out how they will solve world hunger. They couldn’t come up with a plan. Go take your tantrum somewhere else."

Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández on X - "Any school teacher has more work ethic in their pinky finger than Elon Musk has in his entire body. Make. Billionaires. Pay. Their. Fair. Share."
Sawyer Merritt on X - "Imagine the thing you choose to critique Elon Musk on is work ethic 😂
Elon Musk:
• Works 80–120 hours per week during peak periods
• Jobs created (direct + supply chain): ~600,000
• Salaries paid out by his companies: ~$110 billion
• Taxes he paid in just 2021: $11 billion (largest tax bill for an individual in history)
• Value created for shareholders: Trillions
• Drives hundreds of billions in economic impact
• Brought human spaceflight back to America (SpaceX)
• Helps paralyzed patients control computers with their thoughts, giving new meaning to their lives
• Created Starlink, enabling people to access internet anywhere
Elon’s wealth increases because his companies build products and services people love, companies that generate hundreds of billions of dollars in economic value in the U.S. and around the world. He isn't buying yachts, expensive houses or cars. He's continuously pushing his chips into the middle of the table and creating companies that are changing the world. His wealth is tied up in those companies, thus he only pays big tax bills when he sells stock, which is rare."

Meme - Elon Musk @elonmusk: "Shame on Sky News for this utterly misleading headline. Anyone pushing this false narrative deserves complete contempt. Epstein tried to get me to go to his island and I REFUSED, yet they name me even before Prince Andrew, who did visit."
Sky News @SkyNews: "Elon Musk and Prince Andrew named in latest Epstein files release"
Readers added context: "Context needed. While both names appear, the circumstances are vastly different. Elon's name appeared as a possible schedule item and question only. Prince Andrew appears on Epstein flight logs and settled a related civil case regarding sexual misconduct."

Meme - Anonymous @YourAnonCentral: "Immigrants choose to live in the US, they are the actual Americans."
Elon Musk @elonmusk: "Remember to vote tomorrow in New York!"
Anonymous @YourAnonCentral: "Fuck off you aren't even American"

Andy Ngo on X - "A trans leftist in Buffalo Grove, Ill. was arrested on March 14 for allegedly attacking a newly constructed Tesla service center near Chicago. Erin L. White, 27, has been charged with felony criminal damage to property and criminal trespass. White is at least the third known arrested trans person who has allegedly attacked Tesla property recently following calls from leftists for domestic terror attacks as revenge against @elonmusk and Trump."

Meme - M.A. Rothman: "Democrat Rep Melanie Stansbury brought a poll to try to prove that DOGE and Elon Musk are unpopular but the poll inexplicably adds up to 110%... I'm 123% sure this poll is garbage.
HOW DO YOU RATE THE WORK OF ELON MUSK AND DOGE?
67% Disapprove 38% Approve 5% Don't Know"

Jeffrey A Tucker on X - "My heart truly goes out to @elonmusk . He bought this platform to counter censorship and it worked, fundamentally changing public culture just in time. He still doesn't get credit for that. He saw an existential threat from the then-existing regime and tried to make a difference. He spent countless hours and enormous human energy putting together DOGE and discovering vast scandals in government. He believed he could make a difference. Then media and the political machine began to eat him and smear him, and he saw Congress essentially dismiss all DOGE efforts, and he was blocked in myriad ways. I worry that his efforts will stand as a warning to other businesspeople: don't try to improve the world and stay out of politics. He has been punished for trying to do the right thing."

Collin Rugg on X - "JUST IN: Joe Rogan shuts down Senator Bernie Sanders after he tried slamming Elon Musk for donating $270 million in the 2024 election.
Sanders: "[Elon] spent $270 million to elect Trump as president. I think that's absurd that any one person."
Rogan: "What's the most someone donated towards the Harris campaign?"
Sanders: "They spent a lot of money on her."
Rogan: "They spent $1.5 billion in the course of a couple of months.""

Meme - "LOOK, SON! THOSE PEOPLE WHO CUT THEIR SON'S DICK OFF THINK ELON MUSK IS GOING TOO FAR"

Meme - @amuse @amuse: "DRIVE-BY MEDIA: The disgraced New York Times turned a private diagnosis and treatment of a medical condition publicly acknowledged long ago and turned it into a fake news story claiming Elon Musk was abusing prescription drugs while advising the president. Their 'source' had no idea Musk had stopped the treatment long before that point and never bothered to corroborate the false claim."
"NEW YORK TIMES CAUGHT PEDDLING FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT ELON MUSK. The billionaire previously disclosed his medically supervised treatment for depression using Spravato (ketamine) on X. The New York Times, unaware that Musk had stopped taking the prescription medication, falsely reported that he was still undergoing treatment with Spravato. Hundreds of doctors and thousands of patients report positive results from the treatment."

Nick Sortor on X - "🚨 FAKE NEWS ALERT: NYTimes put out a HIT PIECE on @ElonMusk accusing him of excessive drug use while he was in the Trump White House Elon has now COMPLETELY debunked that smear piece, releasing a full, comprehensive urine test. Which was negative ACROSS THE BOARD, of course This was yet another attempt to destroy a powerful Trump ally, and scare other powerful patriots from working closely with the administration. They also want the American public to believe the Trump administration is run by a bunch of incoherent drunks and drug users, degrading trust in the admin. They pulled a similar stunt with Pete Hegseth, making baseless claims of frequent alcohol use. Stay frosty. Ops are everywhere."

Some Tesla owners sue Elon Musk’s company for damaging their reputation - "A group of Tesla owners in France is suing Elon Musk's car company, alleging its vehicles have become "far-right totems" that are harming their reputation, according to the law firm representing the group. The group is seeking to terminate their lease contracts and recover legal costs at the Paris Commercial Court"

Meme - Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson: "Let's be clear; Trump is trying to incite his mob to violence. Again."
Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson: "Kill Tesla, Save The Country. Elon has a weak spot. Attack. *burning Tesla cybertruck*"

Riley Gaines on X - "Tesla terrorist was released due to ADHD diagnosis and lack of access to "gender-affirming care". So basically, a doctor’s note is now a get-out-of-jail-free card."

Tesla on X - "Earlier today, there was a media report erroneously claiming that the Tesla Board had contacted recruitment firms to initiate a CEO search at the company. This is absolutely false (and this was communicated to the media before the report was published). The CEO of Tesla is Elon Musk and the Board is highly confident in his ability to continue executing on the exciting growth plan ahead. – Robyn Denholm"

Tesla Owner Repents And Vows To Vote Democrat After Having Car Torched | Babylon Bee - "Brandon told reporters that he would be more politically careful with his next car purchase and was looking into something reliable and practical like a Volkswagen. At publishing time, liberal activists were encouraged by Brandon's testimony to continue their acts of violent terror in the fight against fascism."

Andy Ngo on X - "The DOJ has charged a far-left queer activist over the arson attacks on a Tesla store in Albuquerque and the office of the Republican Party of New Mexico. Jamison Wagner, 40, an electrical engineer whose LinkedIn said he works at @SolaeroTech Technologies, allegedly attacked the Tesla store on Feb. 9 and left Antifa messages urging for Elon Musk to be killed. On March 30, Wagner allegedly set the Republican office on fire and sprayed the message, "ICE=KKK." He was a featured "scientist" for leftist group @500QueerSci . He's charged with two counts of malicious damage or destruction of property by fire or explosives. Leftists and Antifa have been escalating calls for deadly political violence as revenge against President Trump and Musk."

Meme - "The tards out firebombing Teslas are the ones with Coexist stickers on their cars -Mental illness"

David Shapiro on X - "So, you want me to believe that the people destroying personal property, painting swastikas, and fire-bombing businesses are the good guys?"

Meme - *Burning Tesla Cybertruck with Swastika*
"Oh, saving the planet was last week's roleplay prompt. This week we're resisting Hitler."

Meme - 2023: Soyjak: "Look at them overreact and refuse to buy Bud Light"
Now: Soyjak: "I'M BURNING EVERY TESLA TO THE GROUND!!"

Jimmy Failla on X - "Democrats have gone from mandating electric cars to setting them on fire and they wonder why nobody takes them seriously."

ELON CLIPS on X - "Elon Musk: We also need to have empathy for civilization as a whole.
“Gad Saad talks about suicidal empathy. There's so much empathy that you actually suicide yourself. We've got civilizational suicidal empathy going on. I believe in empathy. I think you should care about other people, but you need to have empathy for civilization as a whole and not commit to a civilizational suicide. The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy. The empathy exploit. I think empathy is good, but you need to think it through and not just be programmed like a robot. Weaponized empathy is the issue.”
The Joe Rogan Experience, February 28, 2025"
Left wingers quote mining the hell out of this would make creationists proud

Elon Musk: The Phony Free Speech Absolutist
Weird. Left wingers used to tell us it wasn't a violation of free speech if the government wasn't doing it, and that freedom of speech wasn't the same as freedom of reach (if you use "cis", your visibility is limited, but you can still post). Turns out that only applies when it's left wing censorship

Brendan Carr on X - "@SpaceX 2023 FCC: Claims that Starlink is not capable of providing high-speed Internet to thousands of people as the reason for revoking an $885M award to the company.
2024 FCC: Claims that Starlink provides so much high-speed Internet that the word monopoly should be tossed out there."
Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 on X - "'If he charges prices judged as too high, he can be prosecuted for monopoly; if he charges prices lower than those of his competitors, he can be prosecuted for “unfair competition”; and if he charges the same prices as his competitors, he can be prosecuted for “collusion.”'"

Meme - How it started: Elon Musk @elonmusk: 'Anyone caught promoting propaganda will be suspended from X.'
How it's going: Elon Musk: 'Apparently, people's pet cats are being eaten'
Left wingers don't know what "apparently" means

Meme - Renson Seow: "Did you know that the SpaceX private spacewalk set a record for the furthest a woman has been from Earth? No? Well that's because the media are biased liars."
"farthest woman from earth"
"BUSINESS TODAY: 'Boundless horizons': Two women astronauts set a new record for the furthest flight in history"
ABC News: "Guinness World Record for longest plank time broken by 58- year-old woman"
Guinness World Records: "Indian woman sets record with world's longest hair measuring over two metres"

Meme - Space Sudoer @spacesudoer: "So now the FAA even has problems with Starship's new heat tiles. They're concerned about 'public safety', even though the ship will splash down in the middle of the ocean where there are no people. Am I the only one who feels like they're making shit up to get in SpaceX's way?"
"The FAA requires a license modification if an operator proposes a change that is material to public safety. A change is material to public safety if it alters or affects the following: class of payload; type of launch or reentry vehicle; type or quantity of hazardous material; flight trajectory; launch site or reentry site or other landing site; or any system. policy, procedure, requirement, criteria, or standard that is safety critical. A proposal to conduct a return to launch site for the booster, if the FAA has not previously evaluated and authorized it for prior flights, is a change that is material to public safety. A change of a vehicle's thermal protection system (TPS) may be a material change if the TPS is a safety critical system or component that could affect public safety." The FAA responding to NSF"

Musk says FCC risked lives in hurricane by rejecting SpaceX Starlink award - "SpaceX executive Elon Musk took aim at the Federal Communications Commission by claiming that it could have “saved lives” in Hurricane Helene if it had not rejected an $886 million award to Starlink last year. “Had the FCC not illegally revoked the SpaceX Starlink award, it would probably have saved lives in North Carolina,” Musk wrote on his social media platform X on Wednesday. He added, “Lawfare costs lives.”... FCC denied Starlink the funding last year over doubts in the company supplying fast enough speeds. One of the FCC commissioners called out the 2023 vote as “political” in his dissent of their decision. “Today’s decision mirrors many of the same missteps that the Biden Administration is making in its implementation of other, multi-billion-dollar infrastructure initiatives. The Biden Administration is choosing to prioritize its political and ideological goals at the expense of connecting Americans. We can and should reverse course,” FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr wrote at the time. FCC reportedly rejected the claims that their Starlink vote was “politically motivated.”"
