Elon Musk Asks "Is This Right-Wing?"
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
X owner Elon Musk hit back at leftists complaining that he is right wing by outlining his “centrist” political views, highlighting how far the Overton window has shifted.
Responding to a post noting how crazy it is that the man developing rocket ships to take the human race to another planet is being attacked, Musk declared that he is in “a battle to the death with the anti-civilizational woke mind virus.”
He then laid out a few key political stances he believes in, asking how they can possibly be perceived as “right wing.”
And, although it shouldn’t need to said, I believe in the Constitution and freedom of speech

In modernity world these things are now all right wing.
Anything that isn't a non-stop drum circle calling for the elimination of all Jews is "far-right propaganda" to these people. https://t.co/TBW3JIXFbq

They all loved Elon until they realized that Elon wasn't woke and he purchased Twitter. Then he became their arch nemesis.

It’s not Elon Musk or any of the rest of us who have changed. Just a few years ago, Obama was calling for secure borders and a halt to unrestricted illegal immigration.
15 years ago, no. Even Obama wanted to secure the border and deported plenty of illegals. There was a time when both parties talked about balanced budgets, now just one does. Racism is the domain of the left. You said it best yourself with this meme: pic.twitter.com/Jx9EOV1kpA

You sound like Biden from 2007.

These are pretty reasonable beliefs.

You and I both would have been considered liberals 20 years ago.
It’s not our fault the Dems have gone so far Left, they are unrecognizable.
All eminently common sense.

And, just a few years ago, used to be a bipartisan consensus.
Yeah

This platform was previously extremely biased, amplifying the left and suppressing the right.

Now both are free to speak.
No voice on the left has been suppressed to the best of my knowledge.

None of these should even be considered political positions, they are rational positions.

Anti-civilization is a side effect of the oldest battle in history. The fight between absolute truth and relativism
— Carpe Donktum🔹 (@CarpeDonktum) March 21, 2024
Civilized society is based upon a shared set of core values and the agreement that reality is absolute, not subjective
Relative truth erodes the societal fabric
"Right wing" has become a meaningless placeholder signifying everything that is good, healthy, and normal.
