Elon Musk defecting to the far-right was an unbelievable Black Swan moment for politics in the West. One of the most influential individuals in the world aligning their politics with what had been a relative ideological fringe and even buying popular distribution for them was an unprecedented step that has already had real world impacts.

A few years ago it seemed that liberal progressivism was still on an unstoppable roll but I think that Musk may succeed in halting or even destroying it over time.
