The SpaceX CEO reiterated in a podcast with Joe Rogan that the Hungarian billionaire “fundamentally hates humanity”.
Prominent US Democratic Party donor George Soros is effectively trying to dismantle society, SpaceX owner Elon Musk claimed during a podcast with Joe Rogan on Tuesday. Musk slammed the liberal Hungarian billionaire for effectively “changing laws” by making sure they are not enforced.
“He’s doing things that erode the fabric of civilization,” Musk said, explaining that the current lawlessness plaguing American cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles is the result of Soros backing progressive District Attorneys who “refuse to prosecute crime.” Musk noted that the billionaire was also “pushing these things in other countries too.”
The cities mentioned by Musk have, in recent years, seen a significant spike in crime rates, which many have attributed to the election of progressive DAs like San Francisco’s Chesa Boudin. Last year, Boudin was voted out of office in a recall election after facing accusations of being too soft on criminals.
“Soros realized that you don’t actually need to change the laws; you just need to change how they’re enforced. If nobody chooses to enforce the law or the laws are differentially enforced, it’s like changing the laws,” Musk surmised.
The X (formerly Twitter) owner went on to claim that despite the 93-year-old Soros being “pretty old” and “basically a bit senile” at this point, he was nevertheless “very smart” and very good at arbitrage, figuring out that the highest “value for money” was in supporting local races rather than national election campaigns like those for the senate or the presidency.
Back in May, Musk also compared Soros to the comic-book supervillain Magneto from the X-Men series and claimed that it was wrong to assume that the Hungarian businessman had good intentions.
Earlier this month, the office of Russia’s prosecutor-general designated the Soros-funded Central European University as “undesirable” for attempting to “discredit” Russia’s political leadership and distort history.
The “so-called educational international non-governmental organization” conducts several programs that “deliberately devalue and distort the history of the Russian state, downplay the merits of prominent Russian scientists, writers, and cultural figures, and promote pseudo-scientific claims that Russia is to blame for all the world cataclysms, which is clearly not true,” the Prosecutor General’s Office said in a statement.
Other Soros-affiliated NGOs have also been banned as “undesirable” organizations in Russia, which has repeatedly accused the financier of trying to meddle in its domestic affairs.
Has anyone insight into which New Zealand NGOs are funded by Soras?
The gullibility of Kiwis and the ineffable busy-body woke crowd make it easy to subvert and sabotage one of the -so far- best societies on the planet.
The elites love NZ, would be nice if there were no inhabitants. They could move right in.
Not sure about Soros, but the current and now outgoing PM Chris Hipkins and the previous PM Ardern are both WEF (World Economic Forum) Young Global Leaders. Ardern wanted to create a two-tier society where vaccinated and unvaccinated were treated differently (guess who would be treated worst) and Hipkins wanted to “hunt down the unvaccinated”. Don’t you just love democracy.
That’s the point I started to fear our Government! I was more scared of Labour/Greens/Maori than of that virus. Whilst I’ve never voted left, this was the first time I was actually deeply worried about safety and the impact of punitive Govt over-reach and believed there was a need to take measures to protect myself from Govt. I’m still astounded I would feel that as a New Zealand citizen. I was so, so relieved when Labour lost power for this reason and for the segregationist, co-Governance BS.
What is it with the left? It doesn’t take much for the ugly authoritarian to emerge. It lurks just below the surface and all it needs is an excuse, which Covid gave them…or any ’emergency’ they might declare. Luxon may be a bit corporate woke, but he’s not a nutty ideologue. With Winston in the mix, I feel we’re collectively safer…for now.
I’ll still prepare and take steps to protect myself, just in case Labour do manage to gain power again in a few years time. May it be at least a decade and in the meantime the right coalition need to put in place measures that limit civil rights abuses, even in an ’emergency’ and ideological extremism.
