    You should diversify your portfolio as long as the companies aren’t woke

    Imagine if you made a shitty web browser with government money and sold it right before the first tech bubble. Then because you were in silicon valley with wads of cash at the right place and time, you were able to invest in huge tech companies as they were founded. You too could be a billionaire genius king.

    Billionaire Musk bought control of US government and conspiracy theorists sure are quiet | Opinion
    Do you guys remember how you spent forever babbling on and on about shadowy billionaires trying to implement a totalitarian government and bring about 'a new world order' and such? Well, here it is.

    Since it appears that unelected, South-African-born billionaire Elon Musk is effectively running the country, I’d like to have a quick word with all the right-wing conspiracy theorists out there.

    Hey, guys. Do you remember how you spent forever babbling on and on about shadowy billionaires trying to implement a totalitarian government and bring about “a new world order” and such?

    I mean, the whole “fear of monied elites” has kind of been your bag for as long as I can remember. Conspiratorial loudmouth Rush Limbaugh painted liberal billionaire George Soros as a puppet master controlling then-President Barack Obama. And Republicans refer to liberals as “rich coastal elites” so often they probably repeat it in their sleep.

    actual elitist billionaire taking control of the government – the thing you’ve always predicted and railed against – and all I’m hearing are non-conspiratorial crickets.


    Musk and minions have their paws on sensitive government data

    Just read what Bloomberg reported on Musk and his made-up government agency, the Department of Government Efficiency: “Elon Musk said his 'DOGE team' of government efficiency enforcers is shutting down some payments to federal contractors, suggesting that the world’s richest man may have access to sensitive systems used at the US Treasury Department.”

    Musk’s tech-bro buddies we know virtually nothing about. And it sounds like they’re sitting around in Washington, D.C., browsing through your Social Security numbers and deciding what the government will pay for and who will get stiffed.

    The New York Times explained why the Treasury system Musk and … whoever … have access to is highly restricted: “Access to the system has historically been closely held because it includes sensitive personal information about the millions of Americans who receive Social Security checks, tax refunds and other payments from the federal government.”

    Why aren't conspiracy theorists mad about shadowy billionaire Musk?

    Fellas, there’s a billionaire and some billionaire-adjacent doofuses taking hold of the U.S. government. Isn’t this what you’ve been waiting for? Aren’t you supposed to be rising up and doing something?

    You can’t tell me you spent the past however many decades saying and writing crazy things about the great elitist takeover and, now that it’s here, you don’t have a plan.

    Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden, ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee, wrote in a letter to President Donald Trump’s Treasury secretary, Scott Bessen: “The press has previously reported that Musk was denied a high-level clearance to access the government’s most sensitive secrets. I am concerned that Musk’s enormous business operation in China ‒ a country whose intelligence agencies have stolen vast amounts of sensitive data about Americans, including U.S. government employee data by hacking U.S. government systems ‒ endangers U.S. cybersecurity and creates conflicts of interest that make his access to these systems a national security risk.”


    What in the name of the Illuminati is going on here? And why in the name of Alex Jones are you usually reliable nutters not freaking the heck out?

    Imagine if this were a liberal billionaire taking control of our government
    I mean, if President Joe Biden had brought Soros into the government as an “efficiency expert” and let him have access to federal government data, Republicans would have impeached Biden instantly. They would have set the White House on fire using the flames erupting from the heads of Fox News hosts.

    The only difference I can see here is that Musk isn’t … ohhhhhh, wait a minute. I get it. He’s not Jewish. I forgot your whole thing has to be antisemitic. My bad.

    And I also forgot this is what the entire Republican Party and the MAGA fans who voted for Trump wanted. They were totally cool, I assume, with the idea of the richest man in the world effectively buying his way into our government then changing it however he wants, while also gaining access to our personal information and routinely saying things that indicate he has no clue what he’s talking about.

    flanked by billionaires like Musk and Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos, and not by regular-guy supporters who devoted all those years to billionaire-related conspiracies.

    I get it now, far-right conspiracist theorist. Your long-standing fear that wealthy elites were plotting to fundamentally change your way of life was just a bunch of crap. Neat.

    Enjoy life under Musk’s new world order.
