For me, it was “pedo guy” that made me wake up to what a piece of shit he is.

Considering he's personally responsible for the deaths of over a million people across Africa and Asia, most of them children, and that his motives largely seem to have been 1) preventing legitimate investigations into his companies and 2) white supremacist domination, I'd say that his voting pattern is the least of my concerns.

Nobody normal believes this though, just Reddit/Bluesky/conspiracy type websites.

You just presented the argumentum ad populum fallacy:

And you claim that a top professor at the Harvard School of Health and Pulitzer-winning journalists are "conspiracy types". So, no, your position is not credible.

You've fallen for the "appeal to authority" fallacy where a single credentialed person believing something makes it true.

There are 1000 credentialed scientists. 999 think X. 1 thinks Y. One cannot say that Y is true just because that scientist has qualifications.

You are welcome to your beliefs and should be free to express them, but not free from criticism of them if they are on the outer fringes.

Voted differently? No idea who he votes for.

Perhaps it had more to do with, erm, you know, his history of attacking people, mistreating workers, spreading misinformation, promoting far-right conspiracy theories, misleading investors, and using his power to interfere in politics and even international conflicts ...

And that's just clearing my throat ... horse trading? disowned by his own children? comments by his ex-wives, the list is endless, actually ...

The guy's evidentially a twat.

Fool you once, shame on him, fool you 25,429 times ... shame on you.

First of all, I'm not American, so I don't vote in the same elections.

And second of all, I'm from a society where people don't instantly hate each other because of most of their votes.

I always assumed that Musk was a centrist liberal but with libertarian or maybe cooperatism right wing view on economics. That didn't make me hate him.

When he started to full on spiral down the alt-right pipeline, and started to re-tweet every bit right wing conspiracy nonsense, absurd lies and slander about immigrants and transe people. That's when I started to hate him.

And even more when double and tripled down.

And then even more when he literally trie to do private negotiation with Putin because he know better then everybody else trying to sell the Ukrainians down the river just so he could be the hero.

And then even more when he literally does Nazi salutes like a 14 year old edge lord and pulls the 'its just a joke' haha bullshit.

And then even more when he spends 100s of million, more then any other donner in US history, trying to literally outright buy himself political position like magic the gathering cards, as if democracy was his to simply own whenever he wanted.

If you don't hate him after this, just because 'he votes republican' then you are almost certainly also minimally a facist and morel likely a neo-nazi or so brain-warped by politics that you should seek mental help.

I hope for you its the second thing.
