Text from article: Musk’s virulent racism and vicious, disturbing views are no secret. He does not hide them. They sit in plain view, easily accessible on the social media website he owns, where he does everything he can to promote similarly far-right and white supremacist ideas. If there is a question to ask, then, it is this: Why does Musk get a pass? Why do politicians, journalists and commentators treat his far-right racist radicalism as a sideshow rather than the core of his political, ideological and industrial project, seen in everything from his deep support for Donald Trump in the United States and Restore Britain in Britain to his decision to construct a massive pollution-generating data center in predominantly Black Memphis, Tenn. Musk spends a large part of his free time fomenting violence and spreading the same hateful ideology that motivated some of the deadliest shootings and attacks ever to happen on American soil. It is that fact, and not the cars he builds or the rockets he launches, that ought to define his place in public life.

Cartoon depicting two identical men side by side. One in front of a blue background, the other in front of a red background. Text: A Trump government community bulletin. Know your ICE agent: Being able to discern between a federally authorized ICE agent and a criminal kidnapper within seconds of first interaction is absolutely essential. Ice agent: gaiter mask, no identification, military grade arms, no uniform, camo pants from Walmart, unmarked vehicle. Criminal kidnapper: gaiter mask, no identification, military grade arms, no uniform, camo pants from Walmart, unmarked vehicle. If your abductor is an ICE agent, you must obey, comply and submit. If your abductor is a criminal kidnapper, you are free to fight for your life. Thank you for your cooperation. Ice: "Don't call us Trump's Secret Police. (It's a secret)."
