Fascists say one thing and do something else.

Mass unjust firings for false reasons, but his heart goes out to you..... Pathetic!

[John Mytton]

If Musk is such a stand up guy, then why is he associating himself with extreme right wing fascists?

A Nazi salute goes hand in hand with extreme right wing fascism!

Besides a hand gesture which you clearly are misinterpreting, please present where Musk shows his "extreme right wing fascism"?

Because I don't see Musk displaying any form of fascism and in fact Musk has done a lot of good for our planet! Like electric cars are a huge step away from Global climate change, exploring space and surrounding planets, satellite internet is now accessible for almost the entire World, Neuralink giving the disabled a chance of living a better life.
Martin, besides a lot of complaining, what have you done for our planet and the human race?

Elon Musk is known for his involvement with companies like Tesla (electric cars), SpaceX (space exploration), and Neuralink (brain-computer interfaces), and has also co-founded PayPal and X (formerly Twitter).

Here's a more detailed look at Musk's ventures and inventions:
Companies and Projects:

Tesla: Musk is a co-founder, CEO, and product architect at Tesla, a company focused on electric vehicles, battery technology, and solar energy.

SpaceX: Musk founded SpaceX, a company that designs, manufactures, and launches rockets and spacecraft, aiming to reduce space travel costs and enable human colonization of Mars.

PowerWall: Musk brought the idea of a home battery system to the forefront with the PowerWall, a large battery designed to store solar energy.

Your blind admiration for Musk is duly noted.

Because I don't see Musk displaying any form of fascism

Except closely associating himself with extreme right wing fascists, you mean?

Musk is a business man and the main purpose of all his activities is to make a profit. If he was doing stuff for the good of mankind he wouldn't have become the richest man on the planet and he most certainly wouldn't have had the hunderds of millions to buy the Presidency for Trump.

Did you read the article? "Musk appeared to imply... blah blah blah"

Musk was commenting on DEI policies and I agree that I want the BEST person for the job, not some arbitrary person employed to fill a quota of a certain gender or colour. Musk like myself doesn't care if a person is female, male, black, yellow or white or whatever, we want our doctor, pilot, air traffic controller, fireman, ETC., to be the BEST and most suitable person for their job, how can this reasonable and logical thinking be in the slightest way controversial?

I outlined all the good that Musk has done for society and the Earth's long time preservation and this is your opener?

Musk is a business man and the main purpose of all his activities is to make a profit.

Sure, there is a lot of ways to make money but investing in risky business that ensures the future of our planet takes a special type of person.

If he was doing stuff for the good of mankind he wouldn't have become the richest man on the planet...

That doesn't even follow logically, so let me rephrase it for you, "Musk became the richest man on the planet because he did stuff for the good of mankind"! For instance electric cars which are essential for reducing global climate change were not very popular, then Musk came along and took a huge financial risk and spent billions developing and manufacturing Tesla's which became the most important new car technology in history and all because Musk wants mankind to survive and be more than we can be!
