“It’s amazing when you grow up and realize how redlining has allowed these industries to kill your family,” @keshaunpearson.bsky.social said. “Elon Musk is a representation of the oligarchy we already knew was operating under Jim Crow. It’s a familiar evil.” https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/06/elon-musk-xai-memphis-gas-turbines-air-pollution-permits-00317582

I wonder what Disney have to say about that...

Considering Walt Disney was a Nazi, and the company made propaganda for the third reich, they would probably be mad that their IP is being used without paying them

I'm still very confused by this statement. I've never found anything that proved he was one? He made stuff against nazis, I've seen the animations myself?

It is so sad his total disregard for the people. But that is not as big as the lack of interest from the Governor's office to his state and how Musk is disregarding everyone.
