They are simply incapable of being honest when it comes to Musk, always quoting him out of context. Here’s the context of the quote:
▪️This was in response to a comment from a post on a shortage of talented engineers in the US. Musk pointed out that there is a huge shortage of engineers here that are extremely talented AND motivated.
▪️Being X, some guy snidely responds that he should open a school. Musk then responds “If you need a school, you’ve lost already.”
▪️In context, he was clearly not referring to not needing schools in general, but the immediate lack of engineers right now. A problem which building more schools would obviously not address.

It’s just so wild to see these movements see saw, it feels like just yesterday that conservatives were boycotting Disney and the left was gloating.
Just incredible. After posting a meme blaming Charlie Kirk for his own murder, they post another a few hours later applauding Democrats for their civility.
Also, if you look at the Occupy Democrats timeline, their posts “denouncing political violence” were variations on “no one should be shot…BUT here’s a quote from Kirk showing he’s a terrible person.” Or sometimes they’d leave the first part out altogether and just attack him. There are no posts denouncing violence without qualifiers trying to gin up their base.
