Amazing how after all these years of zero criticism puff pieces, suddenly mainstream western media wants to talk and write long articles about Musk's SA upbringing and childhood. Hell no. He might have been born in SA but American business and American media made him what he is today, they helped him sell his hyped up stock and fake space dreams. If you want to know where musk came from America get a mirror.

「トランプ政権は、ロシアのサイバー脅威との戦いで後退します 」： #Guardian
「トランプ政権は 、 ロシアが 米国の国家安全保障または重要なインフラストラクチャに対するサイバーの脅威を表しているとは考えていないことを公的かつ個人的に合図しており 、長年の情報評価からの根本的な逸脱を示しています。
政策の変化により、米国はロシアによるハッキング攻撃に対して脆弱になる可能性があると専門家は警告し、 ドナルド・トランプ とロシアの大統領 であるウラジミール・プーチン との関係の温暖化を反映しているように見えた。
最近の2つの事件は、米国がもはや ロシアを サイバーセキュリティの脅威として特徴付けていないことを示しています。 」

The initial wave after #Bezos's decision to kill a planned endorsement of Kamala Harris resulted in over 300,000 cancellations. The recent announcement of a “libertarian-focused” opinion section has led to another wave of over 75,000 cancellations.
[…] The rapid-fire cancellations since Wednesday represent a historic level of reader fury over the changes. Yet they are only the most recent wave in a series of mass cancellations that began in late October. That was when Bezos killed a planned endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. Between then and Election Day, more than 300,000 subscribers canceled the Post, as NPR first reported last month. That was more than 12% of digital subscribers, which make up the vast majority of the paper's paid circulation.

Kudos to #NPR, #AP, #Wired (covering #musk) and the #Guardian for the continued professional and in-depth reporting on the U.S. quick sliding into authoritarianism under #trump.
Check out this 
Guardian headline!
We know that #Palestinian #children are being “killed” both on Gaza and the West Bank but, as per usual with corporate media, there’s no indication that Israel is doing the killing!
In fact it’s more than killing! It’s systematic mass #murder of children on a scale & intensity we haven’t seen since the #Nazi atrocities in WWII!
But you’ll *never* read that in the #Guardian! Will you Kath #Viner?

"Obviously off the record briefings have a place in journalism. However, meeting secretly with a senior IDF representative in the middle of a genocidal campaign as part of an organised propaganda offensive raises serious questions about integrity and transparency."

"More than 150,000 people from Canada have signed a parliamentary petition calling for their country to strip Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship because of the tech billionaire’s alliance with Donald Trump, who has spent his second US presidency repeatedly threatening to conquer its independent neighbor to the north and turn it into its 51st state."
