Musk warns 'fate of Western civilization' depends on Trump returning to office

Elon is correct, as usual.

the dumbest thing Democrats have done this decade it to push Elon away from their side needlessly.

the "fate of Western civilization" depends on Donald Trump returning to office

Besides being a racist dog whistle, what does this dumb comment mean?

He's right, of course. Despite Trump's flaws, he's a bulwark against authoritarianism and that's why the authoritarians are desperate to bring him down. They'll fail, but the fight will be ugly. What flabbergasts me is that all these left-wingers who claim to be for freedom are defending the autocrats instead of fighting them.

$75 million donation and stump speeches. Democracy clearly is for sale.

Trump himself is the very epitome of Authoritarianism.

But Musk has the clear potential of becomming an even greater threat to the United States than even Donald Trump in the years to come.

'fate of Western civilization'

Yes, agree, trump should go to jail.... anyway, this "genius" is soon finish.

he's a bulwark against authoritarianism

Brilliant satire.

Besides being a racist dog whistle, what does this dumb comment mean?

Seriously?

Did any man lose as much credibility in such a short time as Elon Musk?

Musk warns 'fate of Western civilization' depends on Trump returning to office —"I can't emphasize enough that Pennsylvania is, I think, the lynchpin in this election," he said at a town hall event in Folsom, on the outskirts of Philadelphia. "And this election, I think, is going to decide the fate of America and, along with the fate of America, the fate of Western civilization."—Accurate. And even if Trump wins, it will take some time for the Western world to recover from the actions of hypocrites who disguise themselves under the masks of compassion and freedom.

Maybe focus on unloading X, Elmo.

It takes an adjudicated rapist and fraudster to return compassion and freedom?

Now let's send Putin another gift basket, amirite?

Wonder if he's angling for a position in the cabinet if Trump wins. I think he'd be a great modern day Goebbels; he has the technology to push his propaganda further and wider than the actual Goebbels ever did.

Gotta love a bunch of ex JET program people and guys in Japan just on spouse visas or chasing Pokemon around on their phone having the nerve to even try Elon Musk.

You seem to know a lot about the posters on this board.

Anyway, bet most of the guys on those spouse visas have been far more faithful to their spouse than Musk has to his various exes.

He will get a position, Trump already mentioned that.

Not sure what the correlation is with that, but liberals rarely make sense these days.

Weird and sad response.

I think it was on point.

I'll explain it in nice short words for you.

Goebbels is the family name of Joseph Goebbels.

Joseph Goebbels was the minister of propaganda in Nazi Germany.

(A "minister" is a person who does a job for the government. The "government" is the group who run the country. "Propaganda" is the act of telling lies and making people believe that they are true).

Elon Musk is also very good at propaganda because he has many followers on X/Twitter, which he owns.

Thus if Trump wins, Musk would probably like to be the minister of propaganda for Trump.

Hope that's simple enough.

having the nerve to even try Elon Musk.

Yeah right. "Having the nerve", like he is infallible in his pronouncements, like any authoritarian leader should be to his disciples and minions.

Joseph Goebbels was the minister of propaganda in Nazi Germany.

And how does he relate to Musk? What is the correlation? Musk will do experiments on humans?

Elon Musk is also very good at propaganda because he has many followers on X/Twitter, which he owns.

The View engages in Propaganda and has many viewers, so what is your point?

Thus if Trump wins, Musk would probably like to be the minister of propaganda for Trump.

Based on....

Hope that's simple enough.

Not really, Goebbels and your odd platitudes were not making any sense.

Uber rich, but sadly not all that smart.

Is getting from bad to worse for America, whoever wins the elections. This is what they deserve for the instability they have promoted through these years.

For a greater good of the whole world. Starting with Japan!

Not sure I see how Western Civilization is going to be saved by a guy who is willing to sell it out to the Russian/North Korean/Iranian/Chinese axis at the drop of a hat.

He’s smart but unbalanced and becoming more unbalanced.

His weird behaviour is unsettling. That jumping around thing on stage was weird.

When he’s calm in interviews, he’s actually very boring. Possibly medicated.

Don't worry, we'll still be in Japan smiling at ya.

Sorry, I don't think I could dumb it down any further without debasing myself to use Trump-level vocabulary.
