One, “woke” is something I would never equate to “war mongers”. Two, we’re actually not “at war”. Sure, one could say it’s a proxy war, but we have no soldiers on the front while defending democracy on the world stage. Thanks for this, as I had mostly compartmentalized the Ukraine war and ignored the Putin GOP faction. But this is like a Trump rant contradiction that gets lost in the sea of shit spewed forth. So now it's moved to: low T, warmongering snowflakes. Nonsensical, but it's effective as long as it keeps the mob angry and sells merch / drives donations.

begooode Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 Such a disappointing opinion piece (rationalization, really) stating Oz is clueless and the better candidate for senator in PA. Same arguments made by some here, but even more vacuous in many respects -- benevolent Corporate America will take care of all ills (ex: doesn't rail against immigration because it benefits business). And he entirely glosses over the mainstreaming of radical anti-democratic actions from the GOP. Capitalism is a Virtue! What could go wrong? Elect an unqualified, out of state Oz!! What a mess the GOP has become. https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/3684499-mehmet-oz-is-clueless-about-the-economy-pennsylvanians-should-vote-for-him-anyway/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musk is really all about the self to near borderline messiah complex - Ego Elon. As such he really is often doing what he perceives best to "save humanity." To the extent that he feels obligated to stick his nose into every matter as a function of said obligation. Much more than Russia though, where yes he may sincerely believe he's working to head off a nuclear disaster leading to WW3, China is where Being on the Payroll might come into play. He's needs play nice with China so Shanghai can succeed and sales in China continue. One word about a fully independent Taiwan and the next day Tesla could be done in China. I don't so much blame him for not publically siding with Taiwan given his interests, but he could keep his mouth shut about the whole matter. Given that option, you could speculate that the CCP pressured him to submit such a stance (Taiwan as administrative state). But once tied to the Russia/Ukraine comments, seems most likely he believes in his calculus that The Lesser Evil of letting these tyrannical entities get away with horrific actions is still better than the prospect of full-blown world conflict. From the psychopath's pragmatic perspective that might be his view, I get it. But at some point that feels like like Hitler roll into Poland. Sacrificing whole peoples to appease tyrannical autocrats so your own have a bit more peace and prosperity just doesn't seem like the best way forward for civilization. (Still don't feel Musk has any interest in aiding Russia, just wants to avoid more significant conflict there and beyond. If that were the case, he would have never offered up Starlink to Ukraine in the 1st place, much less his silly comment about fighting Putin to settle the war. Shows disparity of power though between Russia and China, as can you even imagine him tweeting about a match between him and Xi "Winnie the Pooh" Jinping to settle Taiwan?)

There's a really good interview I posted in its own thread with an investigative journalist who briefly goes into what Musk thinks is the future of government and its not an authoritarian like Putin.
