WOW: Elon Musk Says ‘The Far Left Hates Everyone, Themselves Included’
NewsBusters ^ | 4/29/2022 | Joseph Vazquez

Posted on 04/29/2022 5:44:30 AM PDT by JV3MRC

The world’s richest man went from liberating Twitter to blasting leftist extremism.

Someone break out the popcorn.

Wait But Why blog website founder Tim Urban retweeted a meme graph shared by Tesla CEO Elon Musk illustrating the current political divide in the country. The graph showed that as liberals pushed farther left, traditional liberals were left behind and now considered right-wing. Urban said in part that “the left is in a sense being held hostage by their extreme wing, making a lot of people who enthusiastically voted for Obama feel politically homeless today.” Musk, in response, went for the jugular: “I strongly supported Obama for President, but today’s Democratic Party has been hijacked by extremists.” Musk proclaimed in a separate tweet the next day: “The far left hates everyone, themselves included!”

Obviously he can’t be responsible for a system that was on its way out before he was born.
Who ever accused the left of sanity?

Oh, I scan the insanity over at DU daily. They hate Musk. He is to them, a preditory capitalist, misogynist, racist, apartheid loving, Trumpster wanna be.

Musk supported Obama because Obama is how he received lots of funding.

Trump supported democrats too in his earlier years.

Both men have become republican over time.

In my teens and early 20s I too harbored leftist notions.

You are right and newly politically interested Kusk is wrong. The extremist left is the product of Obama — the end result of Obama, not something beyond. The Squad is the full blown expression of Barack H.

He was the Trojan horse of Leninism.

Musk received “funding” from Obama before Obama became president in 2008 and before SpaceX and Tesla were even founded?
How'd that happen?

They've been “nasty “ for over a decade. Hasn't bothered Musk much. He just went on to become the richest man in the world by far.

Obama is the far left. He just disguised himself well.


Actually he did not - the Media just did not report it.

His radical leftism was reported on small sites, but the MSN ignored the articles. The info was hidden in plain sight.

He's right.

Elon's going to get the same treatment they gave Trump--and will give anyone who poses a serious threat to their evil and their ambitions.

They've got their knives out for Madison Cawthorn too. They must really be afraid of him!

Have you evidence that musk supported Obama in 2008?

Obama released that solar money that solyndra gobbled up but other companies got money too.

Musk did have a solar comment that didn’t do much.. but was enough to inspire a bigger look at electric cars.

As did I. It is probably more natural for the young to be leftist.

Honestly, I think McCain’s candidacy was DESIGNED to throw support to the magic negro.

But, if this is Musk’s reason, than it is the empty rhetoric, the “historic” first black President, etc.

Yes, and Musk’s little diagram is probably to scale. 2008, the magic negro, is the start of an insane acceleration leftward.

Musk had NOTHING to do with Solyndra.
And Musk did not support Obama because of government subsidies.
SpaceX and Tesla were founded AFTER Obama was already president.
You are not making any sense.

I didn’t say he had anything to do with solyndra.

I also acknowledge that Tesla and SpaceX were started after 2009.

I’m not sure what you’re getting at, and I’m not sure why you’re getting mad.

Of course Obama was always a far left extremist and has done a lot to push the Democrat party in that direction......

people are all over the place saying they just got 50 thousand followers back and stuff

How do we know this isn't the game? Great way to round up all the conservatives. I just don't trust Musk.

He’s not a conservative so yeah, I get it but what I think is he sees an opportunity to make money and that would be done with more people on there, not by kicking them off due to personal ideologies.

Obama is the far left. He just disguised himself well. He is the shadow president and puppetmaster.

Exactly. I'm glad Musk bought Twitter, but his statement of "strong support" for Obozo makes me a bit nervous.
