Great post, thank you. I keep rolling my eyes every time someone on the right writes or says something excitedly about how Musk "won a point for the right on the latest cultural war issue!!"

There are zero dissident American billionaires; even those billionaires considered the “most right” leaning, i.e. Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and Robert Mercer, are not. Every billionaire is effectively a corporatist or liberal, not due to drive or high intelligence - there are many dumb NPC billionaires - but because billionaires remain structurally beholden to lenders, investors, regulators, public relations, etc. that force them into those categories under threat of devastating monetary loss. To be a dissident means opposing the established order, an order that made these people wealthy in the first place. Don’t put your faith in these people. They may occasionally larp (i.e. live action roleplay) as a dissident in order to use populism as a weapon in disputes with other elites, but it does not mean they have accepted populist values.
Re: Musk himself, a couple of other things to note:
1. His twitter profile is literally himself in a Satanic Bahomet costume. He is telling you exactly what he is.
2. He bailed out SolarCity which he was the Chairman of; it was going bankrupt so he had Tesla buy it, solely to retain his sterling reputation it looks like. It remains a massive money sink today.
I could go on but you get the idea. He's fantastic at exciting the imagination of normies, and he can hold media attention, and he is truly fantastic at securing funding from the government, but he is *not your friend*.

3. Twitter has more censorship on it now than pre-Musk acquisition: https://nypost.com/2023/04/01/twitter-censorship-increases-under-elon-musk-leadership-study/
4. Musk's views line up with WEF views: https://i0.wp.com/www.technocracy.news/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/musk-comparison.jpeg?ssl=1

Isn't Musk also leader of the Mars cult? Seems a group of them want to go home?
