3/3 Here’s the fact they can’t outrun:
They’re scared out of their f*cking minds.
Because now IT is too big… and WE are too powerful… for this to ever “fade away.”
This doesn’t “go away.” This doesn’t “blow over.” This doesn’t get “memory-holed.”

I note that the White House originally said it was the White House Historical Association that preserved items from the East Wing. Now it says the General Service Administration and the National Park Service did. Did they? Did anyone?

Many people in South Africa, where Elon is from, died to create a genuinely multiracial polity. They were killed by people who thought like Elon.
The people who thought like Elon also lost. Seems their “common culture” of white supremacy wasn’t enough.

1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.

Why Is The DOJ Spying on Rep. Jayapal & Democrats Investigating the Epstein Scandal?
At the House committee hearing on the Epstein files, Attorney General Pam Bondi had a black binder labeled “Jayapal Pramila Search History," most likely compiled by DOJ staffers.
