Elon Musk smears Haitian migrants with 'cannibal' claims amid crisis
nbcnews.com

As Haiti faces an extreme political and societal crisis amid a wave of intense violence, tech billionaire Elon Musk and right-wing pundits online are weaponizing unverified claims of cannibalism coming out of the conflict to advance a political agenda on immigration.

Musk and conservative influencers have spread the message to millions, smearing Haitian migrants as cannibals as they endure deep uncertainty about the future of their country and family members still there.

Imagine having the ability to reshape the world, to impact thousands upon thousands of lives for the better, to make the Earth a better place than it was before you, to leave a lasting history that people will say your name a hundred years from now and feel inspired that they might be able to do something in a small way that you accomplished across all of humanity. But instead you actively choose to steer your life in the complete opposite direction and be a literal sack of shit named Elon.

But you must understand, his girlfriend left him, so that left him no choice but to turn into an evil supervillain.

Also, he has a trans daughter who wouldn't let him call her his son or deadname her, so she disowned a multibillionaire just to get away from him. Supposedly that made him "anti-woke."

Edit: accidentally misgendered Elon's daughter. Sorry.

So relatable. Who hasn't turned into a fascist piece of shit after a family member chose to live their life in ways one didn't like?

Begging for attention from absolute strangers is the most pathetic part.
