Oh, so THAT'S where Elmo was while Trump and Vance were gang-raping Zelenskyy! I was surprised not to see Musk in the background in the Oval, giggling gleefully while literally drooling. I can say one thing though, although I watched the entire 2.5 hours of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan "Experience," for reasons I can't now articulate, I won't watch even one second of this. His weird affect, his weird facial expressions while microdosing ketamine, and his weird accent that is somehow not even of this planet, are WAY too much for a pleasant Sunday afternoon.
People like Musk dont trust empathy because they are stunted and cannot understand it. They cannot understand win/win. It does not exist in the "power-over" internal world of a Narcissist. Empathy is somewhat suicidal if you derive all your selfhood from weilding power over others. Musk withheld kids from Grimes for 5 months! That's a devestating trauma to a child: "where is Mommy and why did she stop loving me?" But he cannot fathom this. because he's too juiced to hold power over Grimes.
Just like Ayn Rand he has no apathy , ironically this is the trait of the modern day so called morality Christian Republican Party.
And to make it worse Elon Musk who is recking the lives of thousands,he himself has admitted to taking ketamine. A drug that disassociates him from people’s feelings.
For Elon Musk to have the job he has in our government. Is like asking for the perfect storm for disaster. Our enemies around the world are gleefully happy with this administration.
Elon Musk was never elected. Elon Musk was never confirmed or approved. He is Trump’s Rasputin. Just like Rasputin was to the Tzar, Elon will be Trump’s downfall.
This is a truly wise and enlightening piece. It gets to the absolute heart of the matter. It made me understand more than anything else I’ve read today what is underneath these displays of cruelty. Thank you.
None of this, this being life, is up to a bro whose brain is literally in the same state as one would be in if in surgery. Anesthetized.
His view, like his comment “I like to call it legacy media”, he didn’t invent that term anymore than he has anything else, is a balm used to justify his end. There aren’t means, for him, that are acceptable in the perpetual state of “finding”.
Trump defended “his feelings” with Zelenski yesterday, to a bizarre level that says he actually knew nothing about what Zelenski was actually saying.
Musk ain’t going to Mars. Musk will eventually have to leave the planet and the government.
Musk actually drools when speaking. But hey if your brain is on life support you’re living the dream and having a ball all is good.
Rogan essentially said Musk bought the presidency.
Jim, just keep us all informed and invested.
I found it telling that Trump’s shitshow was Putin pulling his strings so he doesn’t have to just the same way Trump has his sycophants do his despotism. Arm’s length. That’s called fear and cowardice.
Then I find out because I actually didn’t know that Vance has NEVER been to Ukraine. Zelenski slipped that it!!
When one is indicted for Espionage, whether it got to trial or not, Zelenski was and is right not to trust any agreement. He’s not interested in a Kyiv-a-Lago.
"Elon Musk has repeatedly decried the existential danger of “suicidal empathy” — which is the absurd idea that if you care too much about people, it’s the equivalent of killing yourself, except on the scale of “civilization.” He has effectively declared empathy to be thoughtcrime." Pure Ayn Rand.
This is a spectacular concept: "People have a right to empathy, they have a right to care about others, and even, as quaint as it may seem, they have a right to have their own government care about them in return."
Thanks Jim for your insightful analysis as always. I honestly think Musk views himself as an accelerationist pinning for the collapse of our society and borrowing out our government for the resources for his Mars mission as crazy as it sounds to us empathic normies.
Luv u articles
