Capitalists used to buy politicians and political parties secretly, under the table, in groups. Now Elon Musk tries (in US, UK, Argentina and beyond) to make politics unaffordable to all but the super-richest. All pretense of democracy is gone.

The ruling class wants us to believe the political process will work so we waste effort there, but nothing will change until we stop buying from them or working for them until real (economic) democracy returns.
This is a prime example.
