Summary

Elon Musk blamed trans people for recent Tesla attacks after his daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, called him a “pathetic man-child.”

Musk shared false data on trans violence and claimed hormone therapy causes volatility. He linked trans identity to attacks on Tesla cars and dealerships, citing unverified reports of trans suspects.

Musk’s comments followed Wilson’s interview where she condemned his far-right shift and disavowed responsibility for his views.

Critics accused Musk of scapegoating trans people amid Tesla’s financial decline and political controversies.

    Himmler probably wanted to “cure” gay people, then draft them into the military. And also it’s wrong to assume that there was a rational basis for Nazi “science.” Much of it was pseudoscience that’d make RFK Jr’s idiocy look rigorous in comparison.

      The point was that it was flexible.

      Rohm was okay because he was useful. After he was out of the picture, all homosexuals were bad. (But at the same time - the way many gay men survived the camps was basically becoming a sex slave to someone with more power. It’s that classic “it’s only gay to suck someone else’s dick, not to get your dick sucked.”)

      Near the end of the war, they just needed bodies for the front. The “werewolfs” were basically going to be sent to die against Russian partisans.

      Fascism is inherently self-contradictory. That’s the point. It’s about who has to follow the rules, not what the rules are.
