Elon Musk’s intentional and very public Nazi salute is no different than Richard Spencer’s “Hail Victory, Hail Trump” performance after the 2016 inauguration. It was an attempt to damage Trump through the negative visual rhetoric of a fake supporter. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, Elon Musk is an actor who plays the role of “the world’s richest man” as well as “elite PC gamer” and “corporate CEO”. All three roles are fake and the midwits who scripted his role never took into account that their conceptual model for the part, Tony Stark, spends most of his time in the lab, not playing corporate front man. He’s not on our side, or President Trump’s side, anymore than Richard Spencer, Ben Shapiro, Neil Gaiman, or Jordan Peterson are.
They’re not controlled opposition, they are fake opposition. And his assignment to attempt to undermine President Trump’s second term is the reason Musk isn’t hanging out in Hollywood trying to seduce yet another actress or singer.
