Elon Musk spent Christmas online and in a German newspaper

The days between Christmas and New Year’s are indifferent, last time. You can hang out with your family, turn your mind to a sunless place with video games and TV, and eat all the leftovers from the holidays. Elon Musk, the richest man who ever lived and the father of at least 12 children, is going crazy about visas on the internet this time and published an article in a German newspaper.

Where to even begin.

In the days before Christmas, a little the war started Between MAGA loyalists and the tech billionaires who helped Trump win the election. The problem was H1-B visas. You see, immigrant Elon Musk thinks Americans are lazy and entitled. To help it flourish, they want to attract more highly skilled tech workers on H1-B visas.

A culture that worships Corey on Boy Meets World or Screech over Zach & Slater on Saved by the Bell or Stefan over Steve Urkel on Family Matters will not produce the best engineers,” DOGE co. – Chairman Ramaswamy He wrote a Tweet on December 26one day most of us are so full of holiday meat that we can’t move.

The reason top tech companies often hire foreign-born and first-generation engineers over “native” Americans isn’t America’s innate lack of IQ (a lazy and misguided explanation). Much of this comes down to the c word: culture. Tough questions call for tough answers, and if…

Ramaswamy and Musk then battled their followers on X, the Everything App for a few days. Musk whirled around prohibitions and charges Enjoying the days after Christmas, I’m assuming it’s timed with Road to Exile 2. Sad. A post for the day after Christmas concluded what happened The post says Americans were stupid. Musk agreed to it, then withdrew his agreement. He said that “hateful, unrepentant racists” He should be removed from the Republican Party.

Good luck with that.

As Musk defends himself against the trolls he fed on the website he bought for $44 billion, the world I also learned from Adrian Dittmannmany people might think to be Musk.

Dittmann is a bluecheck X account He likes to defend the mask. Dittmann has it in his account Available from 2021and spent most of that time fighting for the struggling billionaire. The couple was first spotted together on the Twitter space back in 2023. They are repeated the performance During the H1-B visa.

The thing is, Dittmann sounds and acts like Elon Musk. The account exists solely to inflate Musk’s ego and defend his various positions. When both are in the same virtual space, they are indistinguishable. This led to claims that Dittmann was a sub-account of Musk, even the daughter of a divorced billionaire believes

It is impossible to know the truth about Dittmann. Either Musk is running a sub account and promoting himself, or he’s a weirdo who likes Musk so much that he does an impression of him, models his behavior on Musk, and spends the holiday defending him online. Both possibilities are too horrible to contemplate in these strange and wandering days between Christmas and New Year.

Did you know that parliamentary elections are coming up in Germany? Musk knows. The German government is in crisis and the ruling coalition has collapsed. At the end of February, the Germans will decide the future of the country. Musk would like to have that future hard-right turn.

The billionaire sparked a recent controversy before the new year when he published an article in the Welt am Sonntag newspaper supporting the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Musk said Germany was on the brink of “economic and cultural collapse” and that the AfD was the country’s “last glimmer of hope”.

AfD is such a party breaks his way into a Controversy about the Nazis every few weeks. It would also likely be good for Musk’s business interests overseas. That is why he wrote the commentary. Musk’s endorsement in the newspaper was so scandalous that the editor of Welt am Sonntag resigned in protest.

It’s impossible to know if any of this will matter when Germany votes in February, but it does show that Musk is trying to flex his political muscles outside the United States. He first endorsed the AfD the day before Christmas. I wonder what he will do when he learns of the hateful, unrepentant racists in the ranks of the AfD.

The richest man in the world went into 2025 with the energy he cultivated in 2024. While the rest of us were enjoying time with our families, we finished one last project before seeing a movie. Nosferatu At a matinee or meeting with old friends, Musk was fighting people on the Internet. The holidays are hard for some of us. Musk’s solution seems to be to send through it.
