Elon Musk Demolishes Snarky Superior Editor of The Economist
The extremist didn't like being told that she's the actual extremist.
Elon Musk sat down with The Economist's editor-in-chief, Zanny Minton Beddoes, and boy, did she get more than what she was asking for. If she thought she could lob a bunch of accusations against him, and he'd just take it sitting down. He didn't. Instead, Beddoes got schooled, and the internet is still talking about it. The interview covered plenty of ground, but two exchanges stood out as the moments Musk completely dismantled Beddoes' entire premise. The first came when she tried to paint Musk as a supporter of Europe's "far right." "You support not just the populist right, but the far right, in fact, very fringe parties in some countries," Beddoes said. Musk wasn't having it. "No, I support the normal people -- what do you call the far right, falsely," Musk said. Beddoes pressed on, asking if Musk really believed those parties represented normal people. Musk's response exposed exactly how the media manufactures its labels. "Yes, literally, you could go back 10 or 15 years, and these policies were completely normal," Musk said. "One of the tricks that I think is funny is to take a speech from Obama and Hillary, and then go to someone who's sort of on the sort of what I call the lunatic left, and say, 'What do you think of the speech by Trump?' They're like, 'Oh wow, he's the worst person ever.' 'Actually, that was a speech by Obama,' or 'Actually, that was a speech by Hillary.' Literally." Beddoes tried to pivot, insisting she wasn't talking about the Democrat Party's leftward lurch but about specific figures like Rupert Lowe. Musk shut that down, too, laying out exactly what "far right" actually means to people like Beddoes. "It's actually just normal people. And here are the principles -- tell me which of these sound terrible: That we should have secure borders? That we should have safe cities? That we should have sensible spending?" Musk asked. "Which of those three are far right fringe? I would like to just admonish you and the media for the absurd characterization of the far right. It is false and misleading and nonsense."

@PTrubey ... And then came the oh-so-typical, increasingly tiresome part of most long journalist interviews: the interviewer constructs a straw-man version of Elon and argues against it. Elon carefully explained that he isn't a raging far-right extremist, racist Nazi who kills puppies ... and the journalist still didn't believe it. It is so effing tiresome. The lack of self-awareness on the part of journalists is off the charts. She complained about Elon's supposed misperception of how dangerous London is, while remaining oblivious to the role she plays in creating the giant misperception of Elon as a person in her own writing. Elon defended his political views, saying he is for secure borders, locking up criminals, and balanced government spending, something even she had to admit didn't sound crazy. And... that's about it for an 85-minute interview. I couldn't help but think that the next long-form interview Elon does should be conducted by an AI.

There is a speech by Bernie Sanders where he says of course letting illegals in will lower salaries for Americans and therefore we shouldn't do it.
But that's before the left figured out how to properly grift off of illegals and harvest their ballots

Elon - and in all fairness, Democrats starting with Obama - grasp something that most of the Republican Leadership still won't.
If you try to please everyone, you please no one. Now that's not an idea original to me by any means. And noticed I used won't instead of don't.
But that's the thing. So it all comes down to the margins. Barry Sortoro was perfectly fine with pleasing 51% at the expense of the other 49%. I don't know that I'd advise cutting it that close. But if you're on the 75% side of the argument ? Screw the other 25%. Especially when its the same 25% you're always at odds with on everything.
The flaw in everything I just said ? It assumes an opposition party. The GOP is not.

I used to get The Economist by mail, back when it was on newsprint. Fantastic publication, in general. In-depth and usually literate/reasonable coverage of many things that back then got little attention - obscure global conflicts, economic trends, even technology. Fantastic writing, British English at its best.
Last few times I've seen stuff from it - I think their editorials - they've been the same sophomoric illiterate arrogant morally narcissistic undergrad crap one gets from the rest of the "press" for a few decades now. Unserious garbage.
Sad!

They see themselves at Square One: perfectly reasonable, well-thought out, morally superior.
There is no 'left' in their world view.
To their right is The Far Right. Everything is Far Right, camped out on the edge of evil.

He didn't mince a single word.

I read some hipster/left site talking about this interview which started accusing Musk of killing millions of children with his DOGE cuts which the delusional and crazy Musk has denied and has asked anybody to show even one verified case. As evidenced the blog cites numerous MSM new reports (PBS, NYT, WaPo...) about the massive numbers of kids that have died all over the world. And many more millions will die in coming years. (There may be no kids left in 10 years, just like the glaciers) And all completely speculative, anecdotal and based on absolutely no hard data
Hard to believe they believe this nonsense but maybe they do. Definitely believing their own propaganda.

They see themselves at Square One: perfectly reasonable, well-thought out, morally superior.
There is no 'left' in their world view.
To their right is The Far Right. Everything is Far Right, camped out on the edge of evil.
Just ask the media about their political biases. They'll insist they're right down the middle, with no bias whatsoever.
How they say that with a straight face is unknown.

The only thing decent about Fetterman is his attitude towards antisemitism. Other than that, he is pro drug, pro abortion, pro socialized medicine, the list goes on.

"I don't know who has fooled you, but fighting illegal immigration was long *core* to progressive politics because of the negative effects it had on the lower classes and employment".
Supply and demand. More low skill workers, lower salaries for lower skill workers.
This has been known forever, hell, one of the points that constantly comes up in discussions on the black death is it raised salaries for those that survived because nobles now had a shortage of workers.

After 1/6, Trump was impeached again.
His second impeachment.
The Senate trial ended with 7 GOP Senators voting to convict him, to potentially remove him from politics forever. They could have just gotten 7 more and done it, but they failed.
5 of the 7 are out of Congress now.
No, there is absolutely no realistic threat of Trump being convicted of impeachment. If they couldn't do it after 1/6, they can't do it.

The absolute worst was his “I support common sense not sides” response when pressed about his right wing political views. I wish she had pushed back harder on his extremist answers. But I sensed she didn't want to or could not, perhaps for fear of him just cutting the interview short.
The hypocrisy of supporting free speech but being so distrusting of people with different thoughts and values, and so belittling when being challenged, showed how immature he is
What’s the relationship between aircon and guns? Why the comparison in deaths? Or are they just two things Americans are weirdly obsessed with?
He needs that centrist and left wing money back to push up his stock prices. Not gonna happen.
He needs the governments money. I'm convince Tesla only got big from that tax rebate of 7500 USD.
He saw Tucker go on this show and saw that it was generally seen as successful in right wing circles, so he was like “lemme try”
“I’m not racist, i have kids with 4 women and one of them is half Indian” (even though she totally looks white)
Racism Allegations: **DEFEATED**

Now in the general election plenty of people vote but in the primaries it is generally the most motivated high information voters and yet somehow these left leaning incumbent GOPers can always find enough votes.
Now, maybe I'm pulling a Kael but I know the active Republican voters in my AO and the final vote totals make no sense...
Now if we assume SAVE wouldn't just hit Dem candidates but GOPe ones as well, well everything suddenly makes sense doesn't it?

Yesterday I unwittingly conducted a very interested sociology experiment.
I was riding a bus in San Francisco fr quite a long way - perhaps a 25-minute ride.
Important detail: SF buses allow passengers to board either by the front door next to the driver, or by the back door. There are payment kiosks at both doors -- an electronic pad where you beep your "Clipper Card" (transit card) when you enter.
Also: Drivers are instructed to not get into arguments with passengers, or challenge them about. This is due to numerous violent incidents where crazy people attacked drivers.
Also: SF has (for decades) an intentionally lax fare-enforcement system on transit. You're supposed to pay, but the driver won't kick you off if you don't pay (see rule above).
So,m I was sitting right next to the beeper at the back door.
Over the course of 25 minutes, with probably over a hundreds passengers getting on and off...:
-- Every single black, Asian or Hispanic passenger DID NOT pay. Didn't even pretend to. Just got on via the back door, and sat down. No shame, no hiding it.
-- Every single white passenger DID pay. Every. Single. One.
Analysis?

Also: Drivers are instructed to not get into arguments with passengers, or challenge them about. This is due to numerous violent incidents where crazy people attacked drivers.
Also: SF has (for decades) an intentionally lax fare-enforcement system on transit. You're supposed to pay, but the driver won't kick you off if you don't pay (see rule above).
So,m I was sitting right next to the beeper at the back door.
Over the course of 25 minutes, with probably over a hundreds passengers getting on and off...:
-- Every single black, Asian or Hispanic passenger DID NOT pay. Didn't even pretend to. Just got on via the back door, and sat down. No shame, no hiding it.
-- Every single white passenger DID pay. Every. Single. One.

75 Why won't R's pass SAVE?/i]
I've seen I don't know how many primary elections where political aware people hate the R incumbent and then he wins the primary.
Now in the general election plenty of people vote but in the primaries it is generally the most motivated high information voters and yet somehow these left leaning incumbent GOPers can always find enough votes.
Now, maybe I'm pulling a Kael but I know the active Republican voters in my AO and the final vote totals make no sense...
Now if we assume SAVE wouldn't just hit Dem candidates but GOPe ones as well, well everything suddenly makes sense doesn't it?
Posted by: 18-1 at July 24, 2026 01:39 PM (sKqQm)

The SAVE Act and Voter ID is just one of those things people support but don't actually vote on.
Still, the Senate is being held up by at least five GOP senators who are leaving Congress this term and have hatred of us as a higher priority than clean elections.

You have to understand how progressives/Democrats/etc view the 'left/right' paradigm
They see themselves at Square One: perfectly reasonable, well-thought out, morally superior.
There is no 'left' in their world view.
To their right is The Far Right. Everything is Far Right, camped out on the edge of evil.
---
But that is completely counter to reality.
There IS a left, because Jacobins and Marxists have labeled themselves left. "Right" is actually any group that has reservations about "progressing" through Marx's Ages of History. Which is not one thing.
The European "right", before often represented royalist causes. No Constitutionalist American "right" has that even on the table.

You could add, well the left is changing too, but that's a completely different argument and where the left is going, in terms of revolution and destruction, isn't a place of long term stability.

BTW, it's hard to make me loathe "generic news media personality" more than I already do. But if you drill down and make it more specific, I hate the female ones even more. And if you slap an upper-class British accent on the stupid, lying whore, then we're maxing it out. "Loathing" is a wholly insufficient word for this. There isn't a word that I know of for it. It's just an instinct to reach for the safety catch.

We'll see, but the ones hiding behind people like Murkowski and Collins aren't brave. They're hiding because they're cowards who just want to win re-election.
With Paxton replacing Cornyn, Whatley replacing Tillis (hopefully), and Barr replacing Mitch (along with others), there are fewer people like Curtis (UT) to hide and become enemy #1 of the leader of the party.

Yes, he's going to get primaried out. He could leave the party and run as an independent, but he won't because he's still a partisan Democrat and knows that the 10% he'll take in the election will swing the election to the GOP.

It is true that these illegals are "exploited" by those that hire them (illegally) when they come to America, BUT overall their lives generally improve. They make more than they could in Mexico (or points unknown) plus get health care, education, even housing, (and can send back big bucks remittances to their families if the family remains in Mexico).
And that is just "the good ones", not to mention all the cartels doing their own exploitation, in Mexico and the USA. Our motivation should not be about care for the "exploited illegal", but for the exploited Americans. (and killing the cartels would benefit everyone.)

-- Every single black, Asian or Hispanic passenger DID NOT pay. Didn't even pretend to. Just got on via the back door, and sat down. No shame, no hiding it.
-- Every single white passenger DID pay. Every. Single. One.

People who are victims of everything did not pay as reparations for being victims of everything.
The people who know they caused everything of which the first group are victims paid because they were the villains, they deserved to pay--EVEN MORE, and it would not have looked good for them to pretend to be victims of everything.

Remember that comment the USPS made about central mail processing making mail-in elections a big problem?
According to state data, 148,241 mail ballots were rejected in the California June election, or a rate of 1.73% of all mail ballots.
In raw numbers, that’s up from the 2024 primary, when 108,982 mail ballots were rejected, or a 1.56% rate. In 2022, 105,818 mail ballots were voided during the primary, or a rate similar to 2024.

My baseline estimate for Democrat-run states is a floor of at least 85% grift, graft, fraud, and outright theft. That's for public spending -- including all medical, not just the gov't benefits, since the industry is hyper-regulated to the point of fascist economics.
The way that I got that is by extrapolating from California's artisanal, bespoke cougar/butterfly freeway bridge, which crossed the $100M mark still incomplete. Other states can provide the same function for $15M, physically finished and contract closed. So, with human nature being constant, anywhere that grift is allowed to flourish, that is the amount that it will balloon to.

I saw this on another board.
They set up straw men. “They are afraid of brown people who don’t speak English” and are being whipped up into a frenzy by racist talk show hosts.
I asked “who are you listening to”?
And they became incensed. Finally offered up Charlie Kirk.
I said, by all means, please provide examples from Charlie Kirk. I knew he couldn’t do it.
It’s just an article of faith with them. Somebody gives the go signal, they don’t ask questions. It’s a tautology or circular argument. Facts by assertion.
Charlie Kirk is Racist Because We Said So.
Boiled down, even MORE ridiculous was this guy was basically saying there is no legitimate opposition to open borders other than racism.
Or put another way - even IF or BECAUSE some people oppose migration due to racism , then the ONLY thing to be done is throw open the borders, to prove how un-racisty we all really are.
It’s gaslighting all the way down. But it’s weird to see people who can otherwise seemingly function, dress themselves and other basic tasks suddenly start spouting nonsense with a straight face.

I keep getting unwanted articles sent to my social media from them (they are ads and promos) from Karens and Girlboss wine women bitching and moaning about men, the dating pool, their divorces, and similar whiny shit.
Some of the articles are offensive and if written by a man would be shunned as TOXIC MASCULINITY.

"The People Who Know Nothing Know Everything"
I've had similar conversations and there is another fun one to frame it.
When lefties get on to talking about how Palis are justified in doing literally anything because they are being occupied ask them if the same rights of resistance extend to American and European groups that also demand an end to the colonization of their countries.
Yes you'll get a detour to discussions of colonial America but eventually you will get them to their final defense...Its (D)ifferent when a group we like colonizes a group we don't like

-- Every single black, Asian or Hispanic passenger DID NOT pay. Didn't even pretend to. Just got on via the back door, and sat down. No shame, no hiding it.
-- Every single white passenger DID pay. Every. Single. One.
Analysis?

OK ... I'll be the one. As a group, Whites have a huge bunch of Order baked into our DNA. And yes, that stuff shows up in group behavior. And that Order bone doesn't always serve us well. We'll follow evil masters well as good ones, to preserve Order.
Asians are just being their typical Lawful Neutral. American Blacks, as a group, pick destruction even when it costs them. Hispanics are a hard demographic to pin down. Argentinians and Mexicans are both Hispanic as we see them. Definitely not the same.

Fetterman has -40 approval from Democrats in Pennsylvania and +30 approval from Republicans.
It's crazy.
Yes, he's going to get primaried out. He could leave the party and run as an independent, but he won't because he's still a partisan Democrat and knows that the 10% he'll take in the election will swing the election to the GOP. Like Kristen Sinema also decided to not do in AZ when she was decided to leave the party.

The black electorate and leadership within the party, I think, is asserting control behind the scenes. Clyburn is the lightning rod and figurehead, but it's also about the class of black man and woman that Obama put in positions of power.
Which, I think, contrasts with a moment where black power in the general American political scene is declining overall.
I think all that matters at that level is that black voters get their choice, and that's just coincidentally Kamala. Kamala won't run anything, of course. It'll be the same people running the DNC as before, but black girl magic rules all.

The Peterson-Newman discussion should be taught in debate class.
Yes, Newman went into it without doing any serious consideration of Peterson's likely responses to her questions, but Peterson handled it absolutely perfectly. Had he responded more angrily he would have won the point but likely lost the discussion.
He kept his cool, pointed out she was refuting her own point with the way she was interviewing him, and invited her to answer why that was ok and...she couldn't.

Far right, extreme right. It's called marginalizing. The Left always plays with the language, mostly out of ignorance and expedience. "You're a Nazi." That one is popular and ironic in that "Socialist" in included in the package ( Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei).
They took the word "gay" which means content and happy, and assigned it to sexual proclivities. They took the word "queer" which means odd, and assigned it to the same sexual proclivities. The took the word woke and changed it to an adjective to suggest an awakening to "truth."
Half the time (probably more than half) they don't even bother to learn what a term means, and just use it to their benefit . Ask any leftist to define socialism or communisim. Most won't get it right. Sometimes it's like a toddler making noise thinking their talking.

I wish we still had industrialists like my hero Henry Clay Frick. He would likely have hauled this dirty bitch across his knee and spanked her on camera for the world to see.
During the Homestead Strike, a crazed Leftist came into his office, and shot and stabbed him. With the help of some friends, he fought him off and went to the hospital - but not before leaving a blood-spattered note on his desk ledger stating "I do not think I will die. But if I do, it does not change the position of US Steel toward the Amalgamated Association. We will continue to fight them, and we will win!"
That's how you handle these little shits.

And then Ronnie signed the first Amnesty.

Murkowski loses her committee assignments if she switches. No Democrat is going to give up their positions on committees. She'll be bottom of the totem poll outside of maybe some newbies. This is why party switches never happen.
And Fetterman? I think he knows he's toast in politics and is just riding out the rest of his term. Maybe he'll try for a governor run in 2030 or something.

We should eject her and take her office space away.

I didn't think that's what you meant, I just went off on my own tangent, pretty much continuing my previous thought.
But black swans are not going to develop in the modern Democrat Party. The entire media ecosystem that the left uses won't allow it, and they're up against a black electorate that has a long history of choosing early and sticking with their choice.
2020, they chose Biden early (because of the Obama connection). Even when the Party tried a black face (Deval Patrick) or just brown face (Kamala), the campaigns went nowhere.
And any black swan that shows up will just say all the things that everyone else says. They don't allow for heterodoxy on things like trans or immigration or guns or anything else. So, it'll be boring rich white guy no one believes, or something, who sounds like AOC but is boring.

Kamala spent years as Willie Brown's cumbucket and never got pregnant.
Perhaps she could share her secret.

The whites are chained to the oars rowing in the belly of societies ship like it's Ben Hur.
The minorities are up on the lido deck eating shrimp cocktail and enjoying life.
Posted by: Frank Barone
That's pretty close to my analysis, which is:
Despite decades and decades of "DEI" and apologizing and guilt and groveling and Affirmative Action and welfare and everything else, it is still the case, even the bluest of blue enclaves, that:
-- White people feell that this is their civilization, they are an integral part of it, and everyone (i.e. every white person) must pull together and contribute to making society function and run smoothly.
-- Minorities, despite all the white-guilt, welfare, DEI etc. and everything else described above, still feel like they are wronged outsiders, and feel no shame in extracting benefits and value from white civiliization whenever and wherever possible, without any intention of contributing to it.
Moreover, in a liberal enclave, whites likely feel they must pay not only their fair share, but all the share of all the minorities around them, in a virtuous act of micro-reparations, to alleviate their guilt for White Privilige.

I think all that matters at that level is that black voters get their choice, and that's just coincidentally Kamala. Kamala won't run anything, of course. It'll be the same people running the DNC as before, but black girl magic rules all.

I don't think it is business as usual with the DNC, not with the commies taking over and having nobody they can even propose to be front man/woman who isn't electoral poison.

> Somali gets off the hook even after rape while a white woman gets a fine + community service for calling a Somali the N word at a Rochester playground:
The Somali's little shithead kid stole from her. When she told him off, the rapist with the camera goaded her, mocked her, and aggravated her until she used a naughty word. They then convicted her of disorderly conduct against the man with the camera.
The Somalis also fundraised off this, calling the kid a 5 year old. He's actually 8. They're claiming the kid's autistic, but I don't believe it.

Union Workers ? Of this I know something - although I've never been in a Union myself.
Part of it is pattern. Same as how many here "Backed the Blue" - even as the Blue were kicking their asses over Covid. Kicking their asses to provide BLM "room to burn
". A lot, I'd say most, people do not vote as a result of rational thought. They don't live like that.
You see a huge schism right now because Skilled and Unskilled Trades. Skilled Trades ? Very Trumpian - which is very, very unsettling to Skilled Trades Leadership. Unskilled Trades have chosen to go full Communist in my area.
