Billionaire Musk bought control of US government and conspiracy theorists sure are quiet

[Zorro]

Do you guys remember how you spent forever babbling on and on about shadowy billionaires trying to implement a totalitarian government and bring about 'a new world order' and such? Well, here it is.

Since it appears that unelected, South-African-born billionaire Elon Musk is effectively running the country, I’d like to have a quick word with all the right-wing conspiracy theorists out there.

Hey, guys. Do you remember how you spent forever babbling on and on about shadowy billionaires trying to implement a totalitarian government and bring about “a new world order” and such?

I mean, the whole “fear of monied elites” has kind of been your bag for as long as I can remember. Conspiratorial loudmouth Rush Limbaugh painted liberal billionaire George Soros as a puppet master controlling then-President Barack Obama. And Republicans refer to liberals as “rich coastal elites” so often they probably repeat it in their sleep.

So I guess my question is: Why are all you conspiracy theorists so quiet right now? I mean, you’ve FINALLY got an actual elitist billionaire taking control of the government – the thing you’ve always predicted and railed against – and all I’m hearing are non-conspiratorial crickets.

1. Read this yesterday. Their complete disconnect from reality

is something to behold.

2. This wasn't a conspiracy. It was a publicly announced business transaction between two individuals. nt
