Trump paints himself as great white hope in racism-drenched Davos speech

Elon Musk X account amplifies ‘white solidarity’ post​


(NewsNation) — Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, is drawing attention for amplifying a post on his online platform X.

The Tesla CEO this week responded to a user’s post calling for “White solidarity.” The post, in part, said “White men … will be slaughtered” if the group becomes a minority.

Musk’s comment: The emoji “100,” suggesting he’s 100% in agreement. This drew a cascade of responses from X users, some endorsing the view and others criticizing the South African native.

Danke.
 
You are both insane. I don't hate myself. Do better. Weak BS.
Then what is it? You never ask MAGAts for evidence of their claims yet nag non-MAGAts. You tacitly endorse Trump's racist speech today just like you've tacitly endorsed Elon Musk's endorsement of a racist tweet.

I do too. If they say something that interests me without a link I ask for a link. I do that with everyone. I didn't say it didn't happen, I wanted a link.

Stop trying to read stuff into what I don't say, that's just weak BS based on what you want me to be, it has no basis in reality.

Link?
 
replace? America needs immigrants.

no we don't.
They have been the impetus that has grown our economy for generations.

now they're a net negative.
We have few children now, so they are more important. They work, pay taxes, and start businesses. They grow the economy.
Trump has used illegal immigrants his whole career. They work cheaper and he could cheat them.
yes we know. you want to replace indigenous american with a poorer more desperate workforce that doesn't know their rights.

you have slave owner mentality and are a bad person.

your version of globalization is just a race to the bottom for most people.
 
Musk endorsed the tweet about the White Nationalist "Great Replacement Theory". Do you support White Nationalism or the Great Replacement theory, Damo?

On Thursday morning Elon Musk retweeted (with a ‘100%’ endorsement) a post declaring that:

If white men become a minority, we will be slaughtered. Remember, if non-Whites openly hate White men while White men hold a collective majority, then they will be 1000x times [sic] more hostile and cruel when they are a majority over whites. White solidarity is the only way to survive.




Trump’s speech had the fingerprints of Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff and architect of his draconian immigration policy, all over it. It chimed with an entire discourse of white identity politics festering on the US right.

It is there in the “great replacement” theory, a conspiratorial notion that demographic change is engineered to replace white majorities with non-white populations, undermining traditional culture. It is there in Trump’s decision to grant asylum to white South Africans because of a fictitious “white genocide” said to be taking place in their country. It is there in the rabid ideology underpinning Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) thuggish assault on immigrants in Minneapolis.

It is also there in Miller’s worldview, which has long promoted racist fears of demographic replacement of white people and civilisation decline. He has become the editor who turns Trump’s pub chatter into “Make America great again” scripture....

....Elon Musk, a white man born in apartheid in South Africa and now the richest person in the world, has amplified such ideas. His feed on X, the social media platform that he owns, is still replete with dire warnings of white civilisation under siege. Earlier this month he retweeted with a “100%” endorsement a post declaring that: “If white men become a minority, we will be slaughtered … White solidarity is the only way to survive.”


Trump’s far-right allies have been worrying of late that he has become distracted by global conquest – Iran, Venezuela, Greenland – and losing sight of his creed of “America first”. On Wednesday he may have been addressing the wealthy elites in Davos but, as ever, his true target audience was the one back home. The message: I am still the great white hope.
how is it theoretical?
