Musk Tweets
First
Musk enjoys savagery and abuse, so long as it isn’t directed at him. He also appears to enjoy helping Putin achieve his goals by pulling Ukraine military access from StarLink, opining Ukraine should cede Russia territory and running Russian-originated and American adopted QAnon content on his replacement radicalization engine. Part of those efforts involves narrative control; therefore, Musk pushes fake news over the more costly to infiltrate and direct legacy media he traditionally uses to push out disinformation beneficial to his objectives.
Media figures as NPC, or non-player characters, is the whole point of having all these left-right wing operatives running malign influence campaigns to get attention, sow discord and incite violence, posing as citizen journalists.
Due mostly to Jim Stewartson, many if not most of Musk’s, Giesea’s and Thiel’s reliable influencers, are exposed as it is. That doesn’t prevent the wolves of the PayPal Mafia from gorging themselves on Twitter users.
There are plenty of weaponized memes on Twitter, with Musk pushing out that content along with coded language, meant to normalize racism, misogyny, doing so in successive waves of outrage followed by calm, then a new wave of abuse, psychologically shifting what the world views as culturally acceptable discourse. Much of it is amusing on the front, giving plausible deniability like this kicking Trump to the curb here, but also normalizing altered states, ableism and “kill.”
Yet most of the public don’t recognize it.
This above, a Pepe meme, racist antisemitic Chan-iconography using in Jeff Giesea’s Memetic Warfare, should not exist. It’s also clearly misogynistic and psychologically emotive with the hysterical black and white colorless woman.
Frankly, Musk is the Pepe here, deeply racist, dropping legacy checkmarks on Hitler’s birthday.
