Contents
Early Background
Elon Musks grandfather was Joshua Haldeman, who in the 1930s led the Canadian branch of the Technocracy movement.[6]
Wikipedia writes "Aware that it would be easier to enter the United States from Canada, Musk applied for a Canadian passport through his Canadian-born mother. While awaiting the documentation, he attended the University of Pretoria for five months; this allowed him to avoid mandatory service in the South African military. Musk arrived in Canada in June 1989."[7]
After receiving two bachelor degrees at the University of Pennsylvania, he got into Stanford University. After doing an internship in Silicon Valley, he dropped out in '95, and joined the internet boom and started companies in the dot.com bubble.[8]
PayPal Mafia
Interesting is his connection to venture capitalist and spooky billionaire Peter Thiel, as a member of the group of entrepreneurs named The Paypal Mafia (of which some appear as WEF members) in corporate media, who effectively started and massively influenced the jump to market leadership of many US big tech companies.[9]
In his early days, Musk was known for radical change to companies, getting in arguments with his later friends in The Paypal Mafia, an influential group of investors and suspected deep state faction with a record of aiding intelligence services.
“Despite having perhaps the greatest entrepreneurial streak of all the PayPal mafia, Musk was purged from PayPal like some kind of toxin. Soon after the merger, Thiel resigned.
Musk became CEO of the combined company and decided it was time for a technological overhaul. Specifically, he wanted to toss out Unix and put everything on a Microsoft (MSFT) platform.
That may sound innocent enough to laypeople but not to Unix zealots like Levchin and his team. A holy war ensued. Musk lost. The board fired him and brought back Thiel while Musk was on a flight to Australia for his first vacation in years. “That’s the problem with vacations,” Musk deadpans.
Musk still contends he didn’t deserve his fate, that his biggest flaw was being cut from different cloth. “Peter, Max, and I are not directly aligned philosophically,” he says. “Peter’s philosophy is pretty odd. It’s not normal. He’s a contrarian from an investing standpoint and thinks a lot about the singularity. I’m much less excited about that. I’m pro-human.””

Covid-19

First he was against,[11] then he says that he is vaccinated for Covid-19.[12] He encourages people to get vaccinated.[13]
Wealth
Elon Musk's wealth increased by tens of billions of dollars during the COVID lockdown.[14]
Coup in Bolivia
Iran
Musk, in 2022, was in talks with the Biden administration to deploy Starlink's network to Iran, possibly trying to support more protests causing civil unrest there. CNN quoted a senior official calling Musk a "loose cannon we can never predict".[15]
Ukraine
“If Putin could so easily humiliate the West, then he would accept the challenge [to fight me]. But he will not.”
Elon Musk, Twitter (2022) [16]
Following the 2022 Russian Invasion of Ukraine, Musk, in March, tweeted that he was deploying Starlink, his company SpaceX’s satellite internet venture, to help keep Ukraine online. Starlink promises high-speed internet to remote locations where access is anywhere from unreliable to entirely unavailable. Starlink's receivers have been set up on hospitals, energy plants and companies, and more.[17] Musk was ostracized by The Washington Post as falsely claiming he, as a gesture, paid for Starlink deployment himself. The Biden Administration actually paid for the deployment. The United States Agency for International Development or USAID omitted this after earlier publication from their report.[18][19]
Putin
Musk challenged President Putin to a fist fight over Russia’s war in Ukraine on Twitter in 2022, tagging the President his account in Cyrillic letters. Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Russian space agency Roscosmos, replied, calling Musk too “weak”. Musk later deleted the tweet.[20]
Transhumanism
| Neuralink: Elon Musk's entire brain chip presentation in 14 minutes (supercut) |
“Under any rate of advancement in AI we will be left behind by a lot. The benign situation with ultra-intelligent AI is that we would be so far below in intelligence we’d be like a pet, or a house cat. I don’t love the idea of being a house cat. The solution that seems maybe the best one is to have an AI layer. A third digital layer that could work symbiotically [with your brain].”
Elon Musk (2016) [21]
Musk backs the idea of a “neural lace” – a new electronic layer of the brain that would allow us to instantly access online information and greatly improve cognitive powers by tapping into artificial intelligence.
Musk has a tendency for controversial statements, often backtracking them, and acquired Twitter in 2022 citing to bring “free speech” back.[22]
In 2018, Musk was sued personally for a tweet by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission claiming funding had been secured for potentially taking Tesla private. The SEC called his statement false, and – on behalf of Tesla shareholders – tried to remove Musk as CEO. Two days later, Musk strangely settled with the SEC, without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations, but received a $20 million fine, with the same amount fined to Tesla, and a ban forcing him to step down for three years as Tesla chairman, but not as CEO, all in all a weird 3 days.[23]

|---|---|---|---|
| Norman Fenton | “Note that we have no issue with the contents of either of these posts, nor do we know anything objectionable about the posters themselves. The only point we wish to make is that neither has been censored on X for posting on topics we are currently censored for. But there is another perhaps more uncomfortable possible conclusion we might arrive at. That dissent from particular individuals or groups is positively allowed or even approved on X, whilst that from others, such as us, is not. Hence it not the message but the source of the message, or the timing of the message, that is being censored. Hence who gets to tell you the 'vaccines are bad' might matter to Elon Musk and X, much more than the actual message imparted. In this way X appears to be no different from MSM: politics, influence and money may hold sway to varying extents. And this determines what messages people see, when and by whom.” | Norman Fenton Martin Neil | 22 April 2024 |
| Bill Gates | “He actually could make it worse. That’s not his track record. His track record with Tesla and Space X is pretty mind-blowing at putting together a great team of engineers and taking people who work in those fields in a less bold way and really showing them up. I kind of doubt that’ll happen this time but we should have an open mind and never underestimate Elon. What’s his goal? Where he talks about the openness, how does he feel about something that says ‘vaccines kill people’ or ‘Bill Gates is tracking people’ – is that one of the things he thinks should be spread?” | Bill Gates | 2022 |

5 March 2023 Jun Billionaire saved by the CIA takes over big tech with his friends, but "acts" like he's too autistic to be handled.O, a billionaire guy almost goes broke several times, calls his CIA Big Tech front buddy he used to buy ICBMs in Russia with, gets handed big government contract after government contract against government recommendations, and promises to buy and take over Big Tech with his deep state friends. His deep state friends own so hugely important tech companies and become boss of bosses in non-democratic societies such as the WEF and Bilderberg. And then, he buys Twitter.... what if.... what if this was the CIA's plan all along?
