Government Contractor Elon Musk is Personally Boosting Conspiracy Theorists

Tuesday, October 01, 2024

Tesla CEO Elon Musk is a prolific spreader and amplifier of misinformation on his social media platform X, formerly Twitter, a new report alleges. An analysis from NewsGuard shows that Musk has advanced at least 17 false narratives from the group's misinformation database, from sharing a video promoting the narrative that Haitians eat pets to accusing Democrats of "importing voters."

The left wants to use the power of government to shut him up. Obama would imprison him if he could.

All you have are lies. You can't point to a single statement from an elected democrats or Obama to back up your statement.

The only politician I've ever seen threatened to try to use the government to shut down Musk/Twitter was Donald Trump when he said the following in 2020 in regard to social media networks, "We will strongly regulate, or close them down."

On the contrary, Obama made guns great again. Gun manufacturers everywhere will be forever indebted to him.

Actually that would be mostly due to effective fear mongering by republicans and propaganda from the Russian financed NRA.

Don't forget to thank them.

Musk and Zuckerberg have exposed the government's censorship campaign.

The Biden administration briefly established a literal ministry of truth and have stealthily kept it alive within DHS.

Isn't it the role of government to protect the nation from hostile foreign attacks?

Zuckerberg got trump elected in 2016, took a stance against the big lie, and then backtracked like a bitch.

Musk didn't expose anything, and now does everything he accused the old twitter of doing, only he does it for the pro fascism side.
