Who is this?
Elon Reeve Musk ( EE-lon; born June 28, 1971) is a businessman and entrepreneur known for his leadership of Tesla, SpaceX, X, and xAI. Musk has been the wealthiest person in the world since 2025; as of April 2026, Forbes estimates his net worth to be US$809 billion. Born into the wealthy Musk family in Pretoria, South Africa, Musk emigrated in 1989 to Canada; he has Canadian citizenship since his mother was born there. He received bachelor's degrees in 1997 from the University of Pennsylvania before moving to California to pursue business ventures. In 1995, Musk co-founded the software company Zip2. Following its sale in 1999, he co-founded X.com, an online payment company that later merged to form PayPal, which was acquired by eBay in 2002. Musk also became an American citizen in 2002. In 2002, Musk founded the space technology company SpaceX, becoming its CEO and chief engineer; the company has since led innovations in reusable rockets and commercial spaceflight. Musk joined the automaker Tesla as an early investor in 2004 and became its CEO and product architect in 2008; it has since become a leader in electric vehicles. In 2015, he co-founded OpenAI to advance artificial intelligence (AI) research, but later left; growing discontent with the organization's direction and leadership in the AI boom in the 2020s led him to establish xAI, which became a subsidiary of SpaceX in 2026. In 2022, he acquired the social network Twitter, implementing significant changes, and rebranding it as X in 2023. His other businesses include the neurotechnology company Neuralink, which he co-founded in 2016, and the tunneling company the Boring Company, which he founded in 2017. In November 2025, a Tesla pay package worth $1 trillion for Musk was approved, which he is to receive over 10 years if he meets specific goals. Musk is a supporter of global far-right politics, figures, and political parties. He was the largest donor in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, where he supported Donald Trump. After Trump was inaugurated as president in January 2025, Musk served as Senior Advisor to the President and as the de facto head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Shortly before a public feud with Trump, Musk left the Trump administration in May 2025 and returned to managing his companies. Musk's political activities, statements and views have made him a polarizing figure. He has been criticized for making unscientific and misleading statements, including spreading COVID-19 misinformation, promoting conspiracy theories, and affirming antisemitic, racist, and transphobic comments. His acquisition of Twitter was controversial due to a subsequent increase in hate speech and the spread of misinformation on the service, following his pledge to decrease censorship. His role in the second Trump administration attracted public backlash, particularly in response to DOGE. The emails Musk sent to Jeffrey Epstein are included in the Epstein files, which were publis

The world’s first trillionaire is a killer / Elon Musk’s empire of wealth is built on suffering.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse — gleefully. https://www. theverge.com/tech/949259/the-w orlds-first-trillionaire-is-a
I note that Elon Musk's wealth now exceeds the annual GDP of Switzerland. I think this makes him a state-level actor, and a *hostile* one. I submit that we have tools for dealing with rogue states, and they should be applied to him until/unless he starts to behave. NB: said tools vary from polite talkings-to by diplomats all the way up to cruise missile strikes and invasions.
People need to stop saying Elon Musk is worth a trillion dollars. He HAS a trillion dollars. On paper. He isn’t WORTH a trillion dollars. If something happened to him, we wouldn’t pay a trillion dollars to get another one.
Elon Musk is the world's first trillionaire after years of Democrats and Republicans fellating him with billions in subsidies and no bid federal contracts and the entire legal-financial system giving him a free pass out of sheer greed.

Republicans Blame End of Crucial Program DOGE Cut on Biden | Screwworms are back thanks to Elon Musk and Donald Trump—and beef may get a lot more expensive.
Elon Musk, who famously illegally overstayed his visa in the US, and lied on his citizenship application, is stoking anti-immigrant violence in Northern Ireland, a area whose people faced terrible discrimination when they came to the US to escape starvation. People just want to hurt someone so they can feel less bad about their own lot in life.

I live in a midsize English town. I like it here and feel nothing but safe. It's crazy to think that all it'll take for that to change is for some other brown skinned person here to do something criminal and for Elon Musk to tweet about it, and my life could be in danger.
the shit going on in Belfast is wild. Elon Musk is deeply involved in whipping it up on X, and it's insane that he's allowed to continue to operate his businesses in the UK.
