All of a sudden, the "fish" – on the Right – are going in Elon Musk's direction. The same fish who used to swim in the opposite direction. They changed direction because  . . . well . . . that's hard to divine.

It may be on account of Musk backing Trump, which caused the fish who swim to the Left to stop swimming in Musk's direction. And the fish on the Right to swim back in his direction for exactly that reason. The fish on the Right who used to (righty) object to Musk's Tesla grift for a variety of entirely sound reasons – among them the "making cool" of electric vehicles, as if they were "the future" rather than a failure from the past rebooted – as well as his endorsement of the "climate change" nonsense and the attendant taxing of "carbon" that he favors – about which all has apparently been forgotten.

Having used the government to enrich himself he now says he wants to make the government more "efficient." Kind of like the "mending" – rather than ending – of Obamacare.

He also says we ought to be worried about AI and creepy robots – while pouring resources into developing both. A technocrat who pretend to be a humanist.

How about what is now styled "X" – a construction as clumsy as "the artist formerly known as Prince"?

Just more concisely clumsy.

Musk bought it and promised it would henceforth be a Free Speech venue. It is nothing of the kind. It is a for-profit operation that requires those who wish their speech  – i.e., their posts – to be seen to pay in order for them to be seen. Monthly. Ongoing.

It is "only" $8, say some apologists.
