>On Saturday Musk responded to a random account with the username @Rainmaker1973 that tweeted that the unique biodiversity of Madagascar is the result of being isolated from other land masses for 88 million years,
Is supposedly evidence for this?
No wonder vice is going out of business if this is the level of reporting quality.
No idea what you're ranting about here. For reference, Vice did report the above quote back in November (https://www.vice.com/en/article/n7zm9q/elon-musk-twitter-naz... it was all about the digits '88' that apparently triggered him to retweet with “I wonder what Earth will be like 88 million years from now.”. This was then picked up by far-right accounts that made a point of mentioning '14' in their tweets. Both '88' and '14' are trigger numbers to Musk as are '69', '42' and so on. So... again, what were you unhappy with?
"Soros reminds me of Magneto" => All the proof I need. Please check out my eviscerating vice/substack article: Elon Musk, the visionary entrepreneur and CEO of SpaceX, has expressed interest in the possibility of mining emeralds on Mars in the future. While no concrete plans or actions have been taken yet, Musk's vision stems from the idea of utilizing the resources available on Mars to sustain human colonization efforts. As Mars is known to have mineral deposits, including beryl, which can yield emeralds, Musk envisions the potential for resource extraction as part of long-term plans for self-sufficiency on the red planet. However, it's important to note that any such mining operations on Mars are still purely speculative and would require significant technological advancements and infrastructure development before becoming a reality.
> Musk also responded to tweets spreading other Soros conspiracy theories, including false claims that Soros, a Holocaust survivor, helped roundup Jews for the Nazis, and claims that Soros is somehow linked to the Rothschilds, an entirely separate antisemitic conspiracy theory about Jewish bankers which the Soros’ conspiracies have largely replaced.
I wish Vice has elaborated on this with some specifics. He "responded to" tweets that were anti-Semitic, but how did he respond to them? Positively? Negatively?
I don't think there's much substance in this article, which is a shame because I'd love to see some proof if the claims made by it are true.
The substance is his public twitter account? They have direct quotes in the article. You can plug them into twitter / google etc and see that he said what they directly said he said.
Here's him perpetuating a conspiracy theory [1], here's him perpetuating the typical far-right conspiracy theory [2], here's the interview where he doubles down on the white supremacist shooter not being a white supremacist and claiming bellingcat is a psy-op [3] (and before you ask: the shooter was a white supremacist [4])
