Elon Musk recently posted this meme. Before I comment on it, please take a good look at it and ask yourself if something about it looks off:
The greatest genius of our time seems to have forgotten the US withdrawal from Afghanistan. Furthermore, the US does not have bases in Pakistan and Turkmenistan: If we were on good enough terms with Pakistan to have bases, it is very unlikely that they would have housed Osama bin Laden as long as they did. Now true, that was twelve years ago, but Elon ought to know that we haven’t mended our relations with Pakistan in some miraculous way since then. Furthermore, the US does not have this many bases in even those countries that do house US troops. The graphic is simply a lie.
So, I was under the impression that autistic people were more likely to catch these sorts of things than normies. Either our boy Elon is not as bright as he claims, or he is a vile liar. The fact that he has kept up this pro-Iranian post, a post he made in the light of Iranian backed massacres against Israelis, suggests the latter. Certainly, even if he was too stupid or unconcerned with the truth to notice what is wrong with this map, he should at least respond to the comments.
Despite his accomplishments, there are many ways in which this man is a damned fool. [Also, he placed one at the bottom of the sea.]
