Oh hey we should give this guy a platform
- CNN fuckin apparently
Don’t forget that he married his adopted daughter.
He what?
He got her pregnant too.
sorry, adopted step-daughter. Errol Musk raised her since she was 4 years old.
HE WHAT???
Clutch your pearls a little tighter, you nazi bastard, brown people exist.
Maybe you should try seeing them AS PEOPLE and maybe that would help you out a little? Or you could, you know, STFU.
Good thing nobody cares what he thinks.
He ‘never saw it’, but he sure contributed to it.
I like the guy asking the questions and confronting this asshole, how could he keep his calm and not punch him in the face?
Hes an Irish CNN correspondant. He was born in county Kerry.

He’s become adept at dealing with shitheads since he joined CNN around the end of the last Trump administration.
Never interrupt an enemy while they are making a mistake.
Just for posterity for anyone who doesn’t know: the above is a real quote from Sun Tsu in his “The Art of War”.
here’s the rub on that. yes that logic normally works. but when this kind if pos “enemy” has all the money in the world, they need to be interrupted. often. and told to follow their nazi leader.
Why punch him in the face when the old ¢unt is punching himself in the dick on camera? Just let it happen.
Realistically, what material impact will come from this admission? My money is on nothing at all.
“America in the next 20 years will become, the first time in its history, a minority white country.” Paraphrased
Why is that bad, does Merica treat her minorities poorly?
“America in the next 20 years will become, the first time in its history, a minority white country.”
Good. The fact that anyone with a drop of “non-white” blood isn’t considered white makes it inevitable anyway.
Do you have a source this is how it works in america? Isn’t it based on census data where people choose how they identify?
This fuck-face has a much worse interpretation. It will be worse because non-white people are primitive jungle dwelling idiots. Fuck him and fuck Elon musk.

Declaration of Independence: A Transcription
This is what makes us American. Not our race, creed, color, religion, gender, orientation, or anything else that might divide us. We stand united in our beliefs of self-governance, equality, and the pursuit of happiness.
Elon Musk and his racist father can go straight to hell.
yes, and it was known from the start to be lies. lies are what makes us american. they knew “all men” meant “white and landed”. then a century later they “had” to give more equality so they sprinkle a little crack around and boom got some slave labor again.
fuck america in all its forms.
it was never a real place.
edit: if i sound pissed it’s cause i am. also remember “white” meant “not irish. not italian. not catholic. not gay.” all sorts of shit over time. musk is a completely irredeemable piece of shit.
Didn’t that only apply to white men at the time?
Yes, and not only that, the very forefathers who signed this declaration enslaved the people it didn’t apply to for a long time after.
This bright vision of America is contrasted by the hypocrisy and failures of its leaders and citizens from then and to this day. But it is also upheld by brave people who dedicate their lives to correcting it, and the everyday citizens who participate in their government to shape that vision.
Musk’s ironic and oblivious endorsement of white colonization could be said to reflect the hypocrisy of the first colonizing immigrants to this land, and the founding fathers. But his words do not reflect their ideals as laid out in the Constitution and the Declaration. I think the first step in eliminating that hypocrisy is holding ourselves to those ideals today.
I think that while racism is an American tradition, it is not an American idea and so must be rejected out of hand. Musk may live here, and operate massive business interests intertwined with our government, and he may technically be a citizen, but he is not an American in my view.
yes, are you implying you’d prefer that americans continue that particular interpretation? or adopt the one this person is advocating for?
I’m saying it’s a lie and always has been. Americans need to stop fantasising about the past. Same goes with the creepy reverence for the founding fathers.
Focus on the future and building a better world, not clinging to a past that never existed.
so they shouldnt aspire to being better got it.
No they should, that’s exactly why they should ditch the tainted words of liars. You can strive for these things without clinging on to a rose tinted past.
Your nationalism is exactly why you are stuck struggling like his. It needs to die already.
I was hoping to instill a moment of self reflection into you. but clearly that didnt happen.
The words / aspirations coming from a flawed group of men don’t demean the nature of those aspirations. It simply means some things transcend cultures/generations. And I will note a fair number of the men involved in that whole process did aspire to them and wrote against slavery, for allowing women to vote, and other such things that align with your world view. surprise LGBTQ+ existed in the 1700s as well!
Nor do they necessarily invoke nationalism you’re railing against.
You can strive for these things without clinging on to a rose tinted past.
what percisely is ‘rose tinted past’ about this paragraph? and which parts do you disagree with? be specific now.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
On the one had you’re ‘yes of course they should aspire to the meaning of those words’ and on the other your harassing an individual whose invoking them in the hope of inspiring people to actually live up to them.
Your nationalism is exactly why you are stuck struggling like his. It needs to die already.
America’s*** not mine. see the distinction there?
Focus on the future and building a better world
Did you miss that part?
Elon musks father should have pulled out
Elon Musk’s grandfather should’ve pulled out.
The US becoming a country with a minority of white people would mean it’s healing. That’s how it was at least 250 years ago.
Lots of minorities voted for Trump. I wouldn’t call that healing or anything approaching it.
What you’re saying sounds an awful lot like “not white = good” and that’s not any better than other kinds of racism, it just sounds better in our cultural moment. It’s still racist though.
Racism isn’t the answer to racism. Race amongst humans is a fucking farce propped up by people with no clue about biology or culture.
Agreed. Race is nothing but your genetic response to your ancestral environments.
Too many Americans agree with this dickhead.
The apple didn’t fall far from the tree.
Hot Take:
If you identity as white you are supporting white supremacy.
That is all.
“I’m gonna counter insane racist shit with insane racist shit, that’ll totally work.”
That’s one of the dumbest things I’ve heard someone who isn’t the president say in months.
If I identify as black am I supporting black supremacy?
Like father, like parasite
son.Maybe this sad old guy would look at things differently if he had a little black in him, if you get what I mean 🤣
