 a quick recap:

2 years ago, Elon Musk was one of the most popular people on the planet. 
Then he criticized pop-culture politics, exposed FBI and D.C. corruption, and made a feeble attempt at restoring neutrality to conversation on that platform, while serving his own business interests. 

Thats all he did. He is still doing everything else the same. 

All of the people who went from stary eyed Musk worship, to claiming he’s a devil, are part of the empty eyed amygdala mob. And the empty eyed amygdala mob is the creepiest thing on the planet 
 kanye did something very similar, revealing his true nature the more power and influence he got. he's also a talented bigot. he's also destroying his crafted reputation. he also doesn't get a pass

 woke cult is crumbling.
you should prepare. 
 the world isn't black and white
you don't know me 
or what i believe in 
or what i stand for
you should stay in your lane 
 it must be such a huge burden deciding who the bigots are that need to be cancelled and determining what everyones lanes are that they must stay within to make you feel comfortable.
I hope you get free. ❤️ 
 the people decide who gets called out, i don't believe in cancelled. don't put words in my mouth fren. stay in your lane means mind your business and i'll mind mine. unless you make it your buisness. i didn't ask for your advice. 
 i know technicallyyoure talking to me and everything, but the experience is more like observing a grouchy Chihuahua, bark and chase its tail.  🐶 🌀 
 lol very edgy, gamers rise up ass 
 Musk is a very smart guy. Despite all his defects I respect him  
 In mean…his accomplishments are mind blowing. Hard to even fathom really. Though I’ve always been uncomfortable with his proprietary/centralized tendencies, and for that reason have never purchased anything from his companies.
But the fickle mob with its ever changing pop culture morality is so creepy.
