Musk vs The Wife Beater State

Why Elon Musk's Intervention Infuriated The British Establishment

I’m heading into Northumberland this weekend, where I fully intend to disconnect from the internet, attempt to scale the mountainous unread book pile, and finally get some fishing done. I suspect the unrest and tensions in Britain will have subsided by Monday or Tuesday, and the state will be hunting down the remaining protestors.

Still, I couldn’t resist offering some brief commentary on Elon Musk’s intervention and why it sent British liberals apoplectic with rage. Musk’s somewhat hyperbolic throwaway statement of “civil war is inevitable” resulted in a to and fro between the billionaire and Britain’s establishment ghouls that ended with Musk highlighting cases of Britain’s profoundly lopsided justice system and institutional anti-white bias.

Rather than disproving the claim of “Two Tier” policing and sentencing, the liberal classes argued that Musk belonged to a network undermining trust in institutions and spreading misinformation. Musk was a foreign provocateur, and the best thing he could do was keep his trap shut, stay out of British affairs, and mind his own business. Whether or not he was aware of it, and I think he was, Musk had kicked over a rock and revealed something profoundly unpleasant about the British state and liberal apparatus that I discussed at length in my previous essay. The establishment’s reaction of “our internal affairs are none of your business” is reminiscent of what the Chinese government might say over allegations it treats its Uyghur Muslims inhumanely or any number of nations behaving in an illiberal manner to minority groups or, at least, that the state regards as problematic.

Yet, this is not Muslims or black people being referred to here, but working-class white people, the natives. As I noted on Xitter:

When the native population goes to jail for posts on Facebook, or, in the case of Sam Melia, goes to jail for anti-immigration stickers while a foreign man gets community service for repeatedly raping a twelve-year-old girl, it is difficult to refute the analogy of the British State as a wife-beating sadist. Of course, wife beating and domestic abuse tend to take place behind closed doors because it is commonly viewed as repellent and morally obscene. When the abuser is questioned about his wife or girlfriend’s black eye, or the odd teeth indentations on his knuckles, the response is inevitably a variation of “mind your own fucking business!”

To put this in less prosaic and more analytic terms, the reason Musk’s intervention so infuriated the British establishment is because working-class white people are disallowed from having representation or powerful patrons. Elon Musk and his network of Trumpian, Centrist Caesar Tech-bros who despise “Woke” ideology represent a rival class of elites who can easily embarrass Britain’s politicians by merely “asking questions”.

Centrist Caesarism?

Peeling back the sadism of the British State like a scab reveals a multitude of puss-filled pustules: the grooming gangs, the ridiculous media bias, the nudge units, and the rampant criminality of foreigners forced upon us, on and on it goes. But this was all internal, domestic, behind closed doors.

The mad reaction of the British intelligentsia to Musk speaks of a class of people who see somebody stirring up what John Carter described as “Helots” against the ruling class. This is a strategy Western liberals are very familiar with, having themselves stirred up restless populations across the globe via their sprawling network of NGOs and think-tanks. Remember the Arab Spring when social media was the key to enfranchising long-suffering populations against their tormentors? Well, now they’re looking to make the Online Harms Bill fully armed and operational so people can’t see police turning a blind eye to Muslim “counter-protestors” wielding machetes.

Again, when British liberals fret and mew about “foreign actors” stirring up trouble, they’re revealing an awareness of exploiting a nation’s weaknesses and paradoxes to undermine it. Yet they insisted for decades that multiculturalism was not a weakness but a strength. Consider the current situation Labour finds itself in. If they show too much empathy for working-class whites, they alienate their own client groups and imply multiculturalism is in some way flawed. As it stands, they’ve decided to cosset their client groups, thus proving the original complaints of the working-class natives correct and placing the establishment as a whole in a situation of haemorrhaging legitimacy.

This in a society that, when Oasis’s Wonderwall was in the charts a few decades ago, was unfamiliar with the term “multiculturalism”.

I suspect the social psychologists and mind-benders in Britain’s intelligence agencies are howling at “Two Tier Keir” to begin de-escalating the situation as a matter of extreme urgency.

Again, I shall warn readers to avoid protests or “hot spots” in the coming days, a stance that I know some disagree with.
