The Elon Musk-Matt Taibbi ugly divorceAnd oh yes, the Musk spy satellites; and, that time Musk accused Substack of theft
Musk stands for free speech? Really? Journalist Matt Taibbi worked for Musk on the Twitter Files project. This was Musk’s purported effort to uncover Twitter-government collusion in censoring all sorts of Twitter posters.¹ But Taibbi now says:²
Taibbi published exchanges between Musk and himself.³
Does that conversation sound like Musk is a free speech champion, as he’s claimed? But then there is this. Reuters reports that Musk’s company, SpaceX, has a billion-dollar contract with the US National Reconnaissance Office to build satellites that will be able to, well, spy on anyone anywhere.⁴ We’re talking continuous real-time imagery, gathered on the ground, anywhere in the world. Like your backyard, for example. Imagery pumped out for the US intelligence apparatus. Hmm. Let’s see. Universal surveillance screws everybody and puts Big Fucking Brother over every shoulder. All the time. Is THAT the work of a free-speech absolutist? Possibly, just a guess, Musk thinks that when AI takes over the world and we all ascend into the wondrous brain-computer Merge, the Surveillance State will wither away, because it won’t be necessary… Since we’ll be loaded in every brain cell with unassailable TRUTH… And we’ll automatically think truth and obey truth… And all will be well. Yeah, that must be it. So why not make an extra billion bucks on putting up spy satellites in the meantime? Musk just said we need a “Red Wave” in the 2024 election, to save the country.⁵ I guess the Wave doesn’t include freedom. We need all the other “Redness,” but freedom can be swept off the board. Just like Trump says we have to have all the joys and benefits he’ll bring us…except we can’t eliminate the COVID vax kill shot, because it was his miracle that saved millions of lives. (I’m going to cover this in much greater depth in my new podcast Monday.) Just like Biden says the American Way has to maintain an open border, so lethal fentanyl and cartel thugs and other gangsters from all over the world can come in and get free credit cards. Funny thing: every big shot has his own exceptions and exclusions he just has to impose on us. And impose on the Constitution. PS: Like Taibbi, I know nothing about the Musk-Substack beef.⁶ But I suspect when you add it all up, it’s less than the destroying-freedom beef. So who should really be dead to who, Elon? -- Jon Rappoport 1 “Twitter files: ‘Twitter engaged in widespread censorship of prominent scientists and medical experts for posting content that contradicted the official COVID-19 narrative, according to the latest ‘Twitter Files’ document dump, released Dec. 26, 2022…’” (here) 2 3 On Feb 15, 2024, Matt Taibbi published an April 9, 2023 text message exchange between himself and Elon Musk (here) 5 Elon Musk’s red wave tweet (here) You're currently a free subscriber to Jon Rappoport.
