An NBC News analysis of one month of Musk’s social media posts shows what’s been on his mind, including a broad cross-section of fringe political topics.
In recent weeks, the world’s wealthiest person used X to post about immigrants to Britain, saying they will cause the country’s collapse. He posted about examples of violent crime in Minnesota and South Carolina — where he does not live — and about judges in California and New York he believes are too lenient. Musk also smeared trans people, complained about Black-on-white crime, stoked fear about the end of civilization and shared his thoughts about the race of child actors.
Musk posted about all those topics and more in a recent one-month period, during which NBC News tracked and analyzed all of his posts for an in-depth look at where the tech billionaire focuses his attention online.
This is why I judge people who are into reality tv. You’re allowed to enjoy lowbrow drama, but it does tinge your worldview and your cadence. It’s hard not to allow it to have some small influence on you. It makes you a smidge more catty or delusional.
Equally, when you check twitter, the argumentative nature of the app imbues itself into you. You become more prone toward short-form, bludgeoning communication.
