Steve Bannon is on the top tier of dangerous individuals worldwide that has been hellbent on undermining Western-style democracy. Last night with alleged child sex trafficker Matt Gaetz by his side on Tim Pool’s show for populist fascists, a fancy term equivalent to the less palatable Nazism one, Bannon nudged Musk towards reinstating his Twitter access doing so in an unconventional and seemingly unconvincing manner.
This is a very smart PsyOp, save throwing Matt Gaetz in the background.
Next Musk is likely to have “discussions” over free speech absolutism and how the two ideologically similar men are somehow not aligned. At the end of that Bannon likely gets his accounts back having been amplified by the “Chinese owned” Elon Musk.
Because the topic of lab leak, an unsubstantiated racist-fear mongering conspiracy theory, is a core “complaint” expect that fraud to get pushed out like a Firehose of disinformation amping up anger and provocation towards China even further. That in turn supports Russia’s interest, suppressing coverage of the ongoing genocidal war to depopulate and remove non-Russians from Ukrainian lands that has been slowed significantly.
More intriguing is whether a Musk pivot against China would cause economic calamity long desired by some members of the PayPal mafia.
Why would the PayPal mafia want to trash the Chinese economy?
Crashing economies destroys trust in government and financial systems. That in turn sparks populist sentiment towards electing strongmen fascist dictators like Hitler, DeSantis, Trump, Mussolini and Putin. Hitting Chinese hard builds on Sinophobia in a historically parallel manner to Hitler’s demonization of the Jewish people over the European banking collapse. With China already positioned as a common foil, harming China to shield Russia and Putin is a given, especially when a floundering Chinese economy could lead to economic destabilization not just within China, but the entire world.
How could the PayPal Mafia facilitate a Global recession or possibly Depression?
Attempting to socially engineer a run on the banks by causing mass hysteria would help.
SVB was the only banker willing to loan various Crypto “investment” scammers posing as companies, collapsing as investors wisely pulled out 95% of the Bank’s lent capital (money) following Crypto winter last year. What Sacks is doing above, generates headlines which in turn suggests to people that the financial sky is falling. It isn’t.
Regional banks are safe, insured, and not at all likely to collapse without fear-mongering the public into panic; however, if the media arm of the PayPal Mafia does it’s job, there could be a panic-caused run on the banks causing a self-feeding media loop that winds up knocking hard on the US banking system and overall economy. That is by design.
This brings us back to Elon Musk and Tesla.
I don’t see Tesla as anything more than a current funding mechanism for the PayPal Mafia’s effort to subvert Democracy, second only to the crypto currency scams that caused the bank Sacks mentions above, SVB, to collapse due to last years’ 2-Trillion USD contraction. It’s wholly expendable, and less critical to the overall plan of Thiel’s Western destabilization efforts. It’s also incredibly easy to blame the Chinese for the company’s potential misfortunes considering.
Musk “runs” Tesla in the press, yet this guy who will receive the majority of future public blowback, not Elon, given how race plays into all of this, actually does.
Elon is currently too busy playing fart sounds on Twitter spaces, embracing Jeff Giesea style Memetic Warfare or mocking “former” Twitter engineers over disabilities to care about what happens over at Tesla. Besides, his 2018 CEO payment deal has lapsed. That record setting five-year compensation plan, valued at 2.8 Billion at the time, allowed Musk to buy an additional 1% of the company’s total stock at a locked in excessively low purchase price each of the times he hit two performance and the company one of the market cap targets. That, and social engineering/marketing Tesla as an investment, helped the company’s investment balance sheet to get exceedingly out of whack with actual performance handing Elon more than 300 Billion in final compensation.
Business Insider shared the details of that package.
Musk already “earned” all twelve benchmarks so has no current “incentive” other than having a high stock value when he sells shares.
As we near the end of the fiscal quarter and just saw a stock market peak, we should anticipate Musk to liquidate another tranche of 10-15B value in Tesla stock. That’s an easy prediction to make given he has so far off-loaded some 39B USD worth of the stock since November 2021. It’s likely to be higher than 15B because Musk slashed Tesla purchase prices during the fourth quarter then pushed backend demand forward to reach his final performance goals. It’s statistically unrealistic for the company in the current climate to continue to meet or exceed future milestones or earning projections. When Tesla’s numbers come in poorly, either this quarter and or the next, along with potential FTC and EU investigative risks, it’s going to be incredibly hard for Musk to keep a lofty stock price up. That means it’s good timing for Musk to take other seemingly drastic steps.
A smart tactic here would be for Musk to sell off all allowable shares, step away from the company, let the stock price crater. If he so chose, he could buy back his sold shares at a fraction of the price, strike his next compensation package as Tesla’s savior potentially quadrupling his present wealth.
While some might think that Musk leaving Tesla would be drastic, it isn’t like he is actually helping Tesla nor its shareholders, while focused on his main gig of fine-tuning Twitter as a radicalization engine.
Think of Musk’s title as Tesla CEO more or less as his side gig while he and members of his Russian-supportive PayPal Mafia engage in various economic warfare provocations.
General Flynn’s trucker convoy “protests” and Russia’s were designed as an economic attack to slow trade, harm production, cause strategic shortages that then fired up difficult to control inflation. Inflationary effects are worsened when paired with Russian designed shortages of raw materials, gas and oil. That was the intent, though the effects so far haven’t been as crippling thanks to counter balances made by the Fed.
What happens though if both China and Russia restrict metal exports, or the US inadvertently slaps tariffs on them?
Both Inflation and a Global Depression are then presumably put in play with staggering job losses all but assured given the constant interest rate hikes by Jerome Powell’s Fed.
2024 is going to be rough.
