Take a look at the vile abuse Tate was spewing this week at Telford rape gang survivor Samantha Smith for daring to call him a rapist, if you can stomach it, and if you need any more proof that Elon is not on our side.

Yes. I never believed that he had any genuine interest in helping grooming gang victims. He's interested in using them to push his agenda. I hope something changes for the better because of the light shed on this issue, but Elon Musk is not benevolent.

It's bad but I read it and it sounds like his "endorsement" was just a single statement of "he's not wrong" in response to some dumbass saying that Tate is gonna shake up politics in a positive way even if he doesn't win (aka even though he won't win). I guess Musk was saying Tate's original complaints about the UK government weren't wrong, not so much that the guy commenting that it was going to be a good thing wasn't wrong, but it's the same to me either way.

I think this is just Musk doing the same old tired provocateur dance he and Trump both do, where he says something controversial but deliberately stops short of saying the thing he knows perfectly well that everyone is going to assume he means. Then he gets to be like "uh I never said that 🤷 guess you're just a hysterical moron"

Same boring shit as always

With context it seems like he's not supporting tate, but opposing the currect government which tate is also opposing.

But they'd print anything for clicks. The linked website is infested with like cancer equivalent of the internet

Yeah. Pretty much this, but I do think Musk makes sure he says these things in a way that people will run with. I don't think one should generally be required to make a bunch of caveats when you express agreement with someone "problematic." If someone I usually dislike is right about something, I'll say so unapologetically. But this whole thing is about sex trafficking and for him to just uncritically drop a "he's not wrong" there seems calculated to me. I think he enjoys this kind of clickbait.

Elon Musk is not some great savior of the women and girls of the UK (or elsewhere).

Twitter, now X, is one of the few free speech platforms left

Yes there is misinformation and I have had horrible things said to me and about others

But Ive also heard information that msm isn’t covering

Fox is supposed to be ‘balanced’ but rhey are just the same thing, but conservative

They protect men in dresses too

They could debunk the trans murder myth and show how tims are the safest in their group , how TransWomen show male violence patters, TIMs in women’s jails, but they dont

And Musc is getting this info out there

The Tate bros are disgusting, Musk has no excuse for that
