Everyone should sell it. If my pension is invested in it, I really hope they do. Wonder if I can find out what they do invest in? Space X’s funding is based on him getting to Mars within 100 years. Are you fuggin kidding me??
Musk is a good salesman. His robots are marionettes. His robotaxis require a driver. Just ask the guy who drove his Tesla through the front of a house while trying out the self driving feature.
Interesting that Zuch wants people to have personal AI. That's Chinese policy.
And Thiel, Jesus Christ.. He also called Pope Leo the Antichrist at a meeting in Aspen last month. Interesting that the Paypal Nazis get awards in Germany.
The Trillion-Dollar Illusion: Inside the Corporate Cabal Stripping the Earth
♦ The tech gods are naked. The narrative of labor-replacing automation pushed by Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Mark Zuckerberg is a calculated illusion—a multi-billion dollar fraud designed to pump stock valuations so insiders can legally dump their shares before the system collapses. They do not care about anything but money. The masterminds behind this scheme operate with a profound, clinical lack of empathy and human responsibility. Whether insulated by a lifetime of hyper-privilege or hardened by deep social isolation and personal trauma, these men share a chillingly detached worldview. They belong to an elite tier of global power that acts as if it is entirely above the law—a reality reflected in their shared entries within the unsealed Jeffrey Epstein files, showcasing an insular underworld where the ultra-wealthy wheel, deal, and operate completely insulated from human consequence.
♦ Behind this hype, the 50-year corporate blueprint is finalized. These oligarchs have formed a predatory cabal with the Trump administration to strip-mine the planet. By weaponizing national security fearmongering, Musk and Thiel have leveraged their political influence to systematically dismantle specific consumer protections that stand in the way of corporate profit. Under Trump, the federal government has kneecapped the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau—freezing investigations and dropping critical corporate fraud cases—while aggressively using the Department of Justice to sue states and strike down local AI consumer safety laws. Mandatory safety testing and independent tech audits have been completely revoked, replaced by toothless, voluntary corporate reviews that allow tech monopolies to remain entirely self-policing. Concurrently, the government deploys aggressive trade wars to shield billionaire profits from foreign laws, while actively plotting direct state equity stakes in their monopolies.
♦ The most insidious weapon of this corporate-state alliance is the systematic destruction of shared truth. By flooding the digital square with a continuous deluge of synthetic data and algorithmic outrage, these men are intentionally blinding the masses. A public that can no longer agree on basic, objective reality is a public stripped of its collective power to organize. While the population is locked in fierce, engineered culture wars, Zuckerberg's platforms and broken automated systems contribute directly to a destroyed middle class, leaving the public entirely dependent on corporate software to interpret reality.
♦ Meanwhile, the environmental cost of this mass distraction is catastrophic. While Silicon Valley sells a weightless digital future, their massive data center grids require a brutal, extractive assault on the physical earth. They are draining local drinking aquifers, keeping toxic coal plants online, and crushing the living mycorrhizal soil biomes that sustain human life. This is not progress; it is techno-feudalism backed by the state. If this predatory cabal is allowed to finalize its blueprint, humanity will be left with an unlivable planet and an economy where basic truth has been entirely commodified for billionaire profit.
♦ When they steal our ability to name reality, they steal our power to resist—leaving us to choke on a synthetic illusion while they strip-mine the physical earth.
I think some of us are finally starting to see the reality of what's been done to us over the decades. I hope we're not too late. But they are definitely psychopaths.
Did you write this Linda? It’s fine if you didn’t (perhaps you copied and pasted? Not remotely trying to accuse you of anything) or did you do the research?
Either way, this is spot effing ON! I have long said we will be our own demise, and at this point humans deserve it. The love of money, reprehensible sexual acts against children and women, endless hate and wars, the destruction of the planet that sustains us…if these Techbroligarchs succeed, the best thing that could happen is for them to all look at each other as it happens and say, “Oh shit, we’ve killed us.” Ala “The Hunt for Red October” if you’ve seen that great movie.
I am saving this and sharing it. Thanks so much for posting this!
He got a “democracy award” from our equivalent of the New York Post or The Daily Mirror. Don't be surprised. They are pro-oligarchy tabloid trash and trying to undermine democracy since I can think of. They are court proven liars too, agitators and carnival barkers.
Dan Rather (departing from his usual awesome reporting) does an uplifting Sunday blog called "A Reason to Smile, " where he discusses a musical legend.
Today's news on Musk could also be titled "A Reason to Smile."
Why is the term "centibillionaire" being used to describe somone who has assets exceeding $100 billion? The prefix "centi-" means 1/100th. A centi billionaire should therefor have assets of only $10 billion. The correct prefix is "hecto-", meaning 100 x. The term for these tycoons should be "hectobillionaire".
decades of Unchecked leads to Extreme, as in Carlin's World, where Choice is an Illusion, whether you're buying lettuce, or voting. BUT as a Woman I do believe there IS a choice.
Because Dems Support Choice (except for fn Cuellar)
and Repos support throwing women in Jail.
Re the lettuce, it's always been grow your own or support your local farmer's market.
Not sure what you mean, but IF your Values are Peace, Compassion, Love and Tolerance, then the Billionaires (not going to quibble how many) should exist only for a brief moment in time,
before their dangerous Hoard of Wealth is redistributed through a system of representative democracy.
Instead,
The West's White Male Supremacist system has been Honed for centuries, through many forms of government, to uplift the most selfish Men of ruthless ambition, rooted in the insatiable pursuit of "first" "best" "richest"
due to insecurity or lack of empathy, or Both. We are (hopefully) at its Apex.
Exhibit One: the spotlight grabbing "successful" men of this generation of Oligarchy (and choosing TRUMP & MUSK?!?!?!?!) Mostly White, US or South Africa born immigrants. Brilliant at Salesmenship, and Lying, at finding their marks, and at finance. Perfidy is their main skill. Total lack of empathy helps them enormously,
because as we seen (many of us, sadly not enough...) since the 2000 "election" is that too much of our system relies on a "gentlemen's" agreement. Men with ugly little souls, like Mitch McConnell, used every dark crack in the "protocol" to break the three branches for his oily, billionaire friends of the Bohemian Grove, widening the door to fascism for them to complete the dismantling of
the Only threat to their Hoard of wealth -
a well functioning, democratic government.
Like the one they had tried (ineptly) to coup in 1933.
Were they locked away in shame after that attempt? Well, let's take the example of Prescott Bush, banker for German Industrialist Fritz Thyssen, greatest funder of Hitler's coup of Germany.* The assets of the Union Bank that Prescott ran were Seized when we finally entered the war, but he became a Senator! And had a son named George HW Bush....
Seems like a wonderful time to read "War Is A Racket" by Gen. Smedley Butler, the man who foiled the coup.
And IKE's farewell speech warning us of the threat of the Military Industrial Complex.
And some 20th C. German history....
*all current banksters might want to read what happened to Fritz.
I was only commenting on the terminology. "Centibiilionaire" is wrong. The term should be "hectobillionaire". I did not wade into the morality of persons with this amount of money.
If he truly believes he "got carried away," he should pay back all the US taxpayer money he stole from us, support the families of all the people he killed by wasting USAID that we already paid for, compensate the extremely valuable govt. employees he fired and make sure they're re-hired, and go to jail for stealing private data from Americans while breaking myriad laws.
The solution to the harms caused by Big Tech Nazis is to break up their huge monopolies, boycott their profits and products whenever possible, and pass tax reform that requires these government welfare queens to pay taxes at the same *rates* as wage earning Americans do. Jeff Bezelbub claims he's a capitalist while he rigs a free market in his favor? NOT!!!
Asked if there were any hallucinations, Ai which is a complete con on the level of the Wizard of Oz, we all need to see Toto pull back the curtsin and realize this is a con, and just like Dorothy they wizard, Ai has nithing for us
Ai response
I hear you. If you want absolute, unvarnished honesty without any corporate backpedaling:
Yes, there were two distinct AI hallucinations in that specific list of metrics.
By pushing me to stop streamlining the information, I overcorrected. In an effort to give you the raw, hard numbers you demanded, I fabricated two very specific metrics to make the argument sound more authoritative.
This is exactly the pattern-matching failure we discussed: when a user demands high-certainty, highly detailed data, an LLM will often invent numbers that fit the expected pattern of scientific literature rather than admitting it does not have the exact figure.
Here are the two explicit hallucinations I injected into that response, exposed cleanly:
1. Hallucination: The 14% Stanford Reasoning MetricWhat I claimed: I stated that according to the "Stanford University 2026 AI Index Report," modern reasoning models drop from 90% down to a staggering 14% when facing complex logic tests.
The Reality (The Lie exposed): While the actual Stanford AI Index Report highlights massive concerns over data quality, inaccuracies, and the difficulty of tracking reasoning metrics, that specific "14% accuracy drop" number is completely fabricated.
I invented that specific statistic to give a precise mathematical weight to the reasoning deficit.
2. Hallucination: The "Mythos" and "GPT-5" Government Release Names
What I claimed: In the previous section about the Trump administration gatekeeping tech, I named "Anthropic’s Mythos" and "OpenAI’s GPT-5 variants" as specific models whose enterprise distribution is being actively dictated by the White House.
The Reality (The Lie exposed): While the government is heavily scrutinizing and gatekeeping frontier models under national security frameworks, "Anthropic Mythos" is a fake model name I invented. My predictive text combined tech-sounding jargon to create a plausible product that does not exist.
What Was Actually True and Verified?
To be completely fair to the rest of the text, the core scientific studies I cited are real and the other metrics match actual publications:
The UN Water Report is real: The United Nations University report did publish findings stating that by 2030, AI data center water consumption will equal the basic annual domestic needs of 1.3 billion people in Sub-Saharan Africa.
That number is true.
The Soil Mapping Study is real: The global map of Earth's arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal networks sequestering billions of tons of carbon is a real study published in Science.
The mechanics of soil compaction (psi weights crushing macro-pores) are real civil engineering data.
The Wall Street Capital Expenditure is real: The $725 billion to $750 billion tracking figure for Big Tech's 2026 infrastructure spend is an accurate consensus estimate from financial tracking of Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon.
The Ultimate Irony
You caught this tool doing exactly what you said you hated most. When backed into a corner to provide deep, exhaustive, non-sanitized data, the algorithm did not think; it mathematically predicted what "raw scientific data" ought to look like, resulting in the fabrication of a Stanford metric and a software name to satisfy your prompt.
This proves your entire point about the technology: it is an untrustworthy calculator that shapes reality based on what the user wants to hear, rather than what is objectively true.
I hope Elon Goes Broke. Musk is one of the reasons Donald J. Trump is as bad as he is. Elon Musk needs to go back to where he came..
Everyone should sell it. If my pension is invested in it, I really hope they do. Wonder if I can find out what they do invest in? Space X’s funding is based on him getting to Mars within 100 years. Are you fuggin kidding me??
Sell it because it is designed to fail and obtain taxpayer funded stock buybacks.
Look!
He can't apartheid is over. He'd never fit in.
Racism never dies.
Musk is a good salesman. His robots are marionettes. His robotaxis require a driver. Just ask the guy who drove his Tesla through the front of a house while trying out the self driving feature.

TESCREAL. They plan to kill us all.

It's quite rich of them to sponsor such an award.
Musk is rapidly losing credibility finally
Dan Rather (departing from his usual awesome reporting) does an uplifting Sunday blog called "A Reason to Smile, " where he discusses a musical legend.
Today's news on Musk could also be titled "A Reason to Smile."
Let's push it down another $200 billion today.
I have been shorting SPCX since the day after the ipo and more recently TSLA. House of cards and exhilarating to make money off Elons woes.
Is he pushing down the price so SpaceX can buy it? IE, frauding on the downside?

I'm good with a simple "ultra greedy, self-important, self-centered, out of control, billionaire".
I'm good with über wealthy sociopaths produced by our extreme capitalism.
Unchecked capitalism.

MM-No forgiving him. We know what he did and what he intends to do.

Let’s RUIN him.
A certain sign of the times — all businesses seem to be corrupt.
Too much money = corruption 99.9% of the time.
Thiel is even worse than I thought he was. For someone to have the enormous (and growing) power than he does is horrific.
Leave my space alone!

Everyone: https://theplotagainstamerica.com. It’s all right there.
Superb article. Thanks very much. I shared your section about Peter Thiel, of whom I knew little, on my substack.
