John, this is a long(ish) email about billionaires. I know. But
I’m hoping you’ll read it anyway.
It’s easy to make fun of billionaires. It’s harder to hold them
accountable. But that’s what I’ve been doing — every day — and now,
they’re firing back at me.
Last week, I called on Elon Musk and Twitter to take action.
Specifically, I called on the Biden Administration to investigate Musk’s
company Neuralink, which reportedly engaged in animal cruelty to beat
competitors in their research efforts. Scores of animals were subjected to
painful and needless injuries and death.
Then, I called on Musk and Twitter to take action on hate speech running
rampant on the platform. Slurs against Black people tripled. Slurs against
women increased by 33 percent. Slurs against gay men increased by 58
percent. And slurs against Jewish people have increased by 61 percent.
Those are the facts.
Elon Musk … did not like that at all. And in a now-deleted tweet,
responded in a truly sophomoric way:
[ [link removed] ]Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff Elon Musk calls himself a free speech absolutist,
to justify turning a blind eye to hatred and bigotry on Twitter. But when
journalists report unfavorable news, they are banned without warning. The
devotion to free speech is apparently not that absolute. But the hypocrisy is.
Elon Musk @ElonMusk Thankfully, you lose your chairmanship very soon. Your brain
is too small.
At the same time, a different billionaire (or so he claims), in advance of
being held accountable for his actions by the January 6 Committee and
being referred for criminal prosecution, the twice-impeached failed
president Donald Trump lashed out at me, too:
[ [link removed] ]Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump The highly partisan Unselect Committee is
illegally leaking confidential info to anyone that will listen. Adam 'Shifty'
Schiff is all over T.V. talking about Criminal Referrals, just like he was on
the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, which turned out to be the con of the century.
How much longer are Republicans, and American Patriots in general, going to
allow this to happen. These are the Criminals who spied on my campaign, cheated
on the Election, lied to FISA Court & Congress. They are SICK!
I’m not going to stop holding these guys accountable. But each time they
attack me with lies and innuendo, I trend on Twitter (and not in a good
way).
That’s why I’m asking you to help me respond to Trump and Elon. Right now.
[ [link removed] ]Can you rush a contribution to our campaign to help respond to Trump
and Elon’s attacks before they’re magnified even more by their legion of
far-right social media trolls? If we don’t respond directly to these lies
and refute them, they could take root and spread further.
