Musk Derangement Syndrome Has Become So Foolish His Critics Are Politicizing Child Porn
Leftists are furious with Twitter CEO Elon Musk. They are incensed by the fact that he is working to turn the social media platform into a level playing field in which decisions regarding censorship are not motivated by politics. Indeed, so-called progressives seem terrified at the thought of losing supremacy over the site and have been viciously attacking him since he first took over the company.
To put it simply, they are livid.
But the “Tesla Man Bad” movement has become so nonsensical that they are even criticizing him for making a move of which most Americans would approve: Rooting out the distribution of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) on the site. In saner times, it would be expected that protecting children would be a praiseworthy endeavor regardless of whether one agrees with the politics of the one undertaking it.
However, in 2022, this cannot be the case, as evidenced by the vitriol coming from red-eyed leftist lunatics who are intent on weaponizing the existence of child porn on Twitter.
Shortly after he took over the company, Musk indicated that the removal of CSAM on the platform would be his number one priority. He has taken substantial steps toward that end, having put measures into place to make it easier to report and remove content featuring the abuse of children.
After it became clear that Twitter’s prior leadership was not taking the matter seriously, one would think his desire to address it would be welcomed by people of all political stripes. But alas, that is not the case. Indeed, leftists have instead used the issue as another way to attack Musk and undermine the vision he has for the company.
Professor Don Moynihan took to Twitter to resurrect a tired old trope about QAnon to lump Musk in with the crazies. “The narrative that the Great Leader is secretly defending us against the Elite Band of Pedophiles is the basic QAnon story, now being rebooted to recast Musk in the Trump role,” he tweeted.
Meidas Touch, a far-leftist media outfit, seemed to imply that Musk was a consumer of child porn himself:
The Serfs, a far-leftist YouTube channel, claimed the leader of the trust and safety team is leaving Twitter because of Musk and that he is telling conservatives that a “pedo conspiracy” is “going down.”
Media activist Jacob Silverman repeated a similar trope, pretending that Musk is “leveraging right wing pedo panic” to attack Twitter’s previous leadership.
Members of the activist media have also been writing hit pieces and going after Eliza Bleu, a human trafficking survivor who is working with Musk on the CSAM issue. The Washington Post even went so far as to attack her in a hit piece against Musk, bringing up the fact that she helped raise money for Operation Underground Railroad, an organization that moves against traffickers in other countries. “Some police departments have declined to accept donations from the group amid questions about its fundraising and its appeals to QAnon followers,” the author wrote.
Of course, they would try to link her to QAnon, even though she has publicly criticized them in the past.
Even when I posted a tweet calling this out, some responded by claiming these individuals are only pretending to fight CSAM so they can avoid criticism.
In other words, Musk Derangement Syndrome has made these people completely irrational. Their hatred of Musk for promoting free speech and engaging with non-progressives has transformed them into zombies unable to appreciate his efforts to protect children even while disagreeing with his stance on content moderation.
To them, politics even trumps the safety of children from predators. If they have to use ludicrous QAnon references and attack Musk’s character in his bid to eliminate child porn, they have no issue with it. But sane people can see that these attacks are nothing more than cynical attempts to advance and defend a political agenda and have nothing to do with concern for children or anyone else for that matter.
