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.

What a piece of human garbage.

[-] [email protected] 54 points 1 year ago

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?

But I don't want to cure cancer. I want to turn people into dinosaurs.

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

A white African billionaire accusing black people of being cannibals.

Can't imagine where he got that particular bit of bigotry from...

[-] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He has to mine these gems somewhere. It really is a mystery.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Hidden gem of a comment right here.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

He's exactly like his daddy he hated so much. Just as vile, cruel, and stupid. Spread the word to get under muskrat's skin.

In that Tintin and the general concept that African natives are cannibals are all part of the same system of white colonialist lies.

Babar too that son of a bitch

[-] [email protected] 40 points 1 year ago

A new conservative accusation? Must mean they've taken up cannibalism recently.

Trump said in a recent rally that Hannibal Lecter is coming across the southern border, and was a ‘great guy. Bit misunderstood’. Crazy

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Hannibalism...

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

We are going to find some fucked up shit about Elon Musk soon.

Trust that.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

The left has misunderstood what my intention was in posting this meme. I am taking (sic) about the road warrior collapse that has already begun because of the policy's (sic) of The Great Reset. I am taking (sic) about Cannibalism as defined as the consumption of another human's flesh. 10 days without food and over 80% of people start eating each other. You guys want to bring down civilization so I just wanted to warn you. Good luck…

The idea of killing and eating Alex Jones fucking disgusts me. I think I'd kill him and continue starving, regardless of if I regret it later.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'd take my chance with starving too over 100% chance of dying eating a piece of that rotten and infectious"human"

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

Speaking of cannibalism. We always talk about eating the rich, but I think we need to do it literally just to prove a point. I'm a vegetarian but I'm willing to take a bite just to prove a point. I got the sweet baby Ray's ready to go when you guys are up for it.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Bruh. Get some local fucking BBQ sauce. Unless you're eating the CEO of whomever owns SBR.

Richest man on earth
could be the hero we need.
Does this shit instead.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

Does that mean he’s the one we deserve? That would be depressing.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Imagine that. A billionaire child molester accusing people of being cannibals. What did this child molester base his accusations on? Did Elon the Child Molester just make up some baseless accusations to smear innocent people with or was he too busy molesting children to make up such a terrible thing about someone?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Hang on, Elon is a pedo too? I haven't seen that one yet.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well, he won the lawsuit that says you can just call anyone you want a pedophile.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Well then, carry on.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Elon, Matt Walsh, Dim Tool and Ian Miles all in one article for saying stupid shit. Is there a proper name for that? The Full Grifter?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wait, did IMC pick a side?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Wow another world event where Elon Musk’s contribution is useless. Such new news to tell.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Not useless. Actively making the situation worse.

Given that it's almost always projection with these people, has Musk gone full Hannibal Lector?
