Well there’s a shock

Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk

If Donald Trump’s administration really wants to find evidence of foreign interference in Georgia’s elections, then they need look no further than the president’s old friend Elon Musk and his shady super PAC.
Members of the Georgia State Elections Board voted Wednesday to issue a formal letter of reprimand to Musk’s America PAC over the billionaire technocrat’s illegal scheme to get Trump elected. Georgia, a key battleground state in 2024, was the target of aggressive campaigning by Trump’s team.
In October 2024, the Georgia secretary of state’s office launched an investigation after receiving numerous reports from residents across several counties saying they’d received partially prefilled absentee ballot applications from Musk’s America PAC, according to John Fervier, the State Elections Board’s chairman.
There was evidence to suggest America PAC had violated a state law that prohibits any person or entity, other than an authorized relative, to send an elector an absentee ballot application prefilled with the elector’s required information, according to Janice Johnston, the SEB’s vice chairman.
America PAC had also failed to display in a conspicuous location that this was not an official government publication, was not provided by the government, and was not a ballot, Johnston added.
The board swiftly voted to issue a letter of reprimand to America PAC.

Wow, I’m sure THAT’s got him shaking in his jackboots and he won’t dare try that again in 2028…

Meanwhile on Shitter

Reassuringly normal as ever. I don’t know who the first guy is, so I don’t know why an “African” would want to behead him in the first place, but if an “African” did that to Edolf I suspect millions of people would want to give the guy a gold fucking medal rather than go on a pogrom of the sort witnessed in Belfast recently and which Edolf is fully in favour of:

“Bunnesses”? Fuck, these cunts have less idea how to use their own languages than the immigrants they hate so much. But it’s Yaxley-Lennon posting it, so why expect anything better…

I’m shocked, shocked, etc.

Elon Musk posted about race almost every day in January

Elon Musk’s longtime fixation on a white racial majority is intensifying. The richest man in the world posted about how the white race was under threat, made allusions to race science or promoted anti-immigrant conspiracy content on 26 out of 31 days in January, according to the Guardian’s analysis of his social media output. The posts, made on his platform X, reflect a renewed embrace of what extremism experts describe as white supremacist material.
“Whites are a rapidly dying minority,” Musk said on 22 January, a short time before taking the stage at the World Economic Forum in Davos, while reposting an Irish anti-immigrant influencer’s video about demographic change.
Musk’s posts included him repeatedly claiming white people face systemic discrimination, endorsing the conspiracy that there is an ongoing genocide against white people in countries around the world and promoting a claim that white people would be “slaughtered” by non-whites if they become a demographic minority.
“If you stripped Elon Musk’s name off of these things and showed them to me, I would think that this was a white supremacist,” said Heidi Beirich, co-founder of the Global Project Against Extremism, who reviewed a selection of the posts.
Musk has for years promoted anti-immigrant and far-right content in his posts, as well as endorsed rightwing activists and political parties around the globe. The Tesla CEO’s most recent output displays a more consistent and explicit engagement with white supremacist content and nativist activists than in the past, however, lending them the imprimatur of the world’s richest person and spreading their ideas to his audience of over 200 million followers. Beirich said he appeared “deep into the world of white nationalism”.

Yes. Yes he has. People who have been paying attention have long since known this about him. I’m not sure why the Graun is presenting this as news. Still, it’s never not good to have Edolf’s bullshit on record like this. But at least he’s also willing to stand up for the Chinese…

Apparently what’s really behind this particular outburst is that he’s pissed because he can’t use Anthropic’s Claude AI thing to develop Grok because Claude’s terms of use specifically ban users from using it to build their own other things, or something like that. But in any case, Claude is apparently racist, heterophobic and misandrist. No one seems to be sure why he invoked this book at the end of his post nor what it has to do with anything, and he chose the name “X” for his own company so it’s not he has any right to mock others… Whatever, though, he’s just made himself look like a complete tit, which, again, is no surprise to anyone who used the Internet at all…

Oh no, we made Edolf sad

I’m in an admittedly odd situation for a pensioner, in that I am actually reasonably comfortably off thanks to my parents, whose decades of hard work and effort basically, you know, paid off for me as much as them… I inherited the house I live in with no mortgage, plus their various investments, so that even though the pension leaves a fair bit to be desired I’m still fairly secure that way. I’ve got a housemate who covers quite a few expenses, so I don’t actually have a lot of expenditure in that area either. Basically, I’ve got enough, and I’m relatively happy with that. Unlike some people:

Oh, BABY, that’s tragic. Richest man on Earth and he’s still miserable. And he wants sympathy, apparently, and he can fuck the fuck off with that. You don’t want happiness, anyway; what money does buy is power, and that’s what you want more than anything (with the possible exception of love, and money won’t buy you that either, not the real thing anyway. You have to be capable of it yourself first to deserve it from others, and Edolf has frankly demonstrated his lack of ability there).

I can’t imagine having as much money as this individual and still not being happy with that… I mean, money doesn’t buy me happiness per se either, but it covers the costs of the things that do… I’ve got enough, like I said, to make me happy, and this cunt doesn’t despite having about 400,000 times my wealth. Maybe it’s just that I’ve never really wanted a lot, whereas he clearly does and has the proportionately greater wherewithal to achieve those things, and he’s still not happy. And I’m kind of glad about that somehow.

Merry Griftmas to all…

Look who’s found religion…

Daniel’s going to be weirdly disappointed if Edolf turns out to be Muslim now, eh? Needless to say, none of his commenters are buying it, and quite a few are speculating about what charges are coming his way that he’s going down this route so suddenly, or whether he’s just in another ketamine spiral… To be honest I believe Russell Brand’s conversion more than this; I’ve said before that I think Brand’s Christian beliefs might actually be genuine, but I do not think this of Edolf. I doubt the latter believes in anything except himself and his bank account; if I still feel Brand’s conversion was suspiciously timed (even if genuine), Musk’s putative conversion to something or other is equally suspicious and even less real. No season of goodwill to this character.

Then again…

You may recall I was speculating the other day about whether or not Edolf was a particularly sexual being, cos I’ve never really had the impression that he was…

…but if this is true, then I may have been a bit premature (like Edolf himself? BOOM TISH!). A ghastly image if ever there was…

Leave those semicolons alone!

Haven’t had an awful lot to say of late, just having one of those occasional lulls; there’s enough stuff happening that I could talk about (like the US government shutdown and the chaos resulting therefrom) but haven’t wanted to. But I must note this story, at least…

So the author Joyce Carol Oates posted this on Twatter the other day, and a bit of a storm erupted thereafter… and I recognise the tendency she brings up, I wrote about it a while ago; it’s the “art won’t fuck you” thing. These things don’t get these people anything, there’s no material benefit for them. You may notice, though, that Oates doesn’t specfically identify any individual “wealthy man” that she might be thinking of, but someone made it all about himself…

EDOLF! I haven’t had anything to say about that cunt in ages, haven’t missed him for aome reason, but anyway he felt the need to make himself the main character of the Internet again after Oates posted that tweet about him that didn’t even name him, and he was fuming like this for ages, apparently…

…to the point of being all “SEE? I do SO read books, Joyce!” like this, making an ad to promote an old Blinkist list of some of his favourite books (which I had seen before; he’s been a reader at some point but I feel like he hasn’t been one for a very long time)…

…and though this post did predate the current nonsense, it’s been revived as a result of same. You may notice the book in the link is conspicuously not the one he mentioned.

As for Joyce:

Which I do believe is a rather more concise and brutal burn than the one that kicked this off. To be honest, I don’t think the “art won’t fuck you” thing really works with Edolf. I don’t know if he’s actually that interested in sex per se; he’s obviously invested in spreading his genes as far and wide as he can, but I don’t know that sex in and of itself otherwise interests him… we’ll leave aside entirely the question of whether or not he’s even functional Down There (most if not all of his many kids seem to have come from IVF or susrrogacy, though), but anyway, I suspect he’s more interested in power than anything really. But there’s equally no denying a hollowness at the heart of him; he may not be bothered that art won’t fuck him, but he evinces no real interest in it anyway that I can see. He really is all he has, and when you’re him, that’s a pretty fucking awful thing…
