Elon Musk is a good guy, right? He wants to stop climate change, make humanity interplanetary so we don’t share the same fate as the dinosaurs, and is a staunch defender of free speech, freedom and democracy. Surely, such noble callings make him one of the most moral and ethical people on the planet. Well, no. This is a fake public persona Musk has built for himself. Musk has used projects like Hyperloop to stop the US from adopting high-speed rail, a transport solution far better for the environment than any EV. The science clearly shows that a Martian city is both a terrible idea and not a viable backup planet for humanity. What’s more, as I have extensively covered recently, Musk might say he loves freedom and free speech, but in practice, he suppresses and censors speech he doesn’t like and supports presidential candidates with a track record of trying to overthrow democracy. Such inconsistency has started to erode Musk’s carefully curated public image. But a recent tweet (xeet?) utterly destroyed it by letting slip a deeply disturbingly ugly side of Musk.

So, what was this tweet about? Well, Musk retweeted a theory that a free-thinking “Republic” could only exist under the decision-making of “high-status males”, claiming that it was “interesting.” If that sounds…
