Interview: "Elon Musk’s Family History in South Africa Reveals Ties to Apartheid & Neo-Nazi Movements"
Elon Musk was born in 1971 in Johannesburg, South Africa, and raised in a wealthy family under the country’s racist apartheid laws.
"Musk lived what can only be described as a neocolonial life. If you were a white South African in that period and you had any money at all, you lived with servants at your beck and call.”
~ Chris McGreal

Democracy Now! · Elon Musk’s Family History in South Africa Reveals Ties to Apartheid & Neo-Nazi Movements

So last night I stumbled across this twenty-five minute interview with Guardian reporter Chris McGreal on Democracy Now!" Most of the conversation centers around the Musk family's longtime connections with Nazism (like literally the Third Reich) and neo-nazi movements, as well as how growing up in Apartheid South Africa shaped Elon Musk's worldview. Interestingly however, this is probably the first time I've ever seen anyone who works in corporate media mention that Peter Thiel, and David Sacks also have deep connections to apartheid societies in Africa. As you're likely aware, all three men have intimate connections with, and have financially supported, Trump and the larger fascist movement that's built around his cult of personality.
I'm sharing it here at least in part because McGreal is very firmly a mainstream media source, and until very recently this type of background information on the billionaire nazis ruining our society as we speak, really didn't get a lot of play in the mainstream media. This kind of critical background information wasn't necessarily a "secret," but corporate media has always been far too fawning towards tech billionaires to bring up "inconvenient truths" like the reality that the richest guy in the world, who is currently helping to enact a white nationalist agenda in America, comes from a family full of cracker nazis.
Edit: to be clear, I'm not saying that nobody ever rises above a reactionary upbringing here; I grew up in just such an environment myself and I think I've done a pretty good job of not turning out to be a nazi. If however, someone, let's just say a handful of the richest guys on earth, spends a lot of time promoting fascist, white supremacist ideology, and helping fascists and white supremacists win elections, and then directly influences policy decisions that affect entire countries (if not the world) in a way that promotes fascist, white supremacist hierarchies, the fact that they were raised in an Apartheid environment surrounded by people who love nazis, is probably relevant. Sorry for the edit; I forgot we live on the dumbest timeline and thus you have to explain things like this to avoid disingenuous muppetry.

Whether you know all about #ElonMusk's background or not, you must watch this video from #DemocracyNow for depth and context. This is critical to understanding the very real existential danger #America & #Democracy are in RIGHT FUCKING NOW. #uspol #apartheid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ahv3IKzMdHA
They will lie and lie and lie about everything whilst lighting everything on fire behind their backs. They are actively claiming that every corner of the US Government is roiling with "waste, fraud, and abuse" and supposedly ejecting the inefficiencies in order to "save" America from this mythical corruption.
For lack of a better term, they are terraforming American society to make it hospitable for white fascist libertarians. While the various groups invovled are doing it for their own reasons, Musk and #PeterThiel are doing it to build the Nue Amerikan Apatheid that their fathers and grandfathers failed to maintain in South Africa.
STOP IGNORING THIS!!! #fascism #libertarian #DarkEnlightenment #TESCREAL

PS: This isn't alarmism or an overreaction. The longer we wait, the harder it will be to extricate these hyper racists from our Democracy or at least until it collapses.

I have little time for Hollywood so I didn’t know who Rachel Zegler was before reading this but she sounds like a decent human being.
And Jonah Platt… apparently a colossal wanker.

Guess who did know… Did you guess Obama? Did you guess Biden?
“The plan, apparently backed by the Biden administration and involving US oil giant Chevron would in effect seal Palestinian energy dependence on Israel.
The US approach is consistent with a strategic framework described in a December 2014 report published under the Obama administration by the US Army War College’s Strategic Studies Institute.”
