Elon Musk IS the Tar Baby. Try to hit him and you will get stuck until you are , like Brer Rabbit, covered with tar. Getting clean won't be easy and it may scratch like briars.
Trouble is probably that musk has feelings about people yet thinks that a ‘leader’ has to suppress these for a more important purpose. This is the power of science and technology, that from the founding of the Royal Soociety (of London for Improving Natural Knowledge) in 1660 decided to not admit ‘subjectivity’ or human feelings.
And this is contrary to Life and only serves something abstract.
I love the hopeful attitude. Or he could be an autistic narcissist who enjoys the company of other soulless types. I hope to learn your more charitable way of thinking.
Without sounding maybe too simplistic, I agree that the Constitution, as you mention 1st and 2nd Amendments, have veered way off track, and that the shifting of anything must be done with ones acceptance to the shift, at any rate thereof. People/voters have accepted his grift/shift, although small. Change isn't easy for most. Change is much easier when facts are known. However, nothing is ever guaranteed but enter Musk and I have far too many questions to put here.
With that in mind, voters expected to go to the ballot box without the knowledge of two very critical legal cases and their outcomes, after a jury trial, was asking far too much. That is a shift of responsibility rooted in Houdini and one I never accepted. That's the premise of the latitude to the 1st Amendment with the president/political speech. Not to intentionally and with malice interfere in three elections, he had an interest in, one he was convicted, using fraudulent means.
The internet has polluted all sense of dissemination of facts and MAGA seem to only need emotion and no facts. That's the idea for all of this. Mass extermination, per Musk, is the war on the truth. Le Replacement Theory. Make it culture anger. When it is culturally more difficult to have traditional relationship, fiscally more difficult to raise children, and influencers are about making oneself about only oneself. See Musk/Trump. Threats that continue when Trump becomes a public officer will be challenged and I hope the Robert's court has to make one of two decisions. One, the easy route, to continue the charade somehow or get a grip on their own oath and duty.
Musk is more dangerous than Trump, by far, because Trump has far less focus to remain focused. He's malleable like his base. They call legacy media sane washing Trump. Trump is sane but pathological but will he tolerate Musk's far worse pathology? Adulation will shift and Trump, without Musk, is far less harmful, without a mandate, and so the chaos is still ours to discern but that Overton Window will close, abruptly, once anyone sees corporate taxes go to 14% and they loose some form of health care or money or both. No one will need to primary anyone. Musk hopes Trump will be gone by then and no mid-term will happen. Gone due to health. I mean no violent interpretation.
I read Dave Troy's article and clicked through on the Russian material, basically a book; still, wrapping one's head around reflexive control is not easy. It warrants a YouTube video tutorial. Here's a start: https://youtu.be/D_k5ZXES0FE?si=RTAvTDrXZxx_rQRm William Randolph Hearst was a prototype for Elon Musk. Hearst had ambitions to become president of the United States and gobbled up media to try to make it so. If he had had a platform as powerful as X, it may have come to pass.
I learned critical thinking in a public school in Alabama in the '60s. It was not "woke," believe me. My teachers did tolerate dissenting opinions, including the unpopular idea that Black people are actually people. Whatever the hell has happened ever since?
Go with god, (or Lady Liberty, or whoever). My folks had a working "plantation" in Mississippi in the fifties and sixties; nearest train stop was Meridian. They let me pick a little cotton. I cut my hands on the pods.
When billionaires talk about “freedom” they mean LICENSE, the license to do or say anything they like…no restrictions on THEM whatsoever. They don't want to have to be concerned about anybody else. They use others to meet their own needs and feel entitled to this one-sided arrangement. They can't tolerate having to respond to the needs of other people.
Wow! I am so glad I found your site.
"Free speech" is free, possibly also fact free or free of any decent impulse.

Thank you for what you do.

Me too, Eleanor--in Mississippi.
