The world’s richest man lent his considerable weight to Donald Trump’s campaign. Elon Musk is now even richer – and he has all-areas access to the president-elect.
Call it government via the manosphere. The men Donald Trump surrounded himself with on stage for his victory speech had one thing in common – they are all figures of influence in the network of male online communities that has sprung up “as a response to feminism, female empowerment and the alienating forces of neoliberalism”,
Just look at the crowing he has done since the Trump victory on X, the social media website he owns. As the prospects of Trump’s presidential victory firmed on Tuesday, Musk posted a meme of himself carrying a kitchen sink into the White House, with the caption “let that sink in”. Trump has good reason to be well-disposed to Musk. The billionaire donated $US132 million of his own money to Trump’s campaign and devoted his social media platform – formerly Twitter – to endorsements of Trump, attacks on his opponents, and the promulgation of anti-Democrat conspiracy theories.
