Usual health warning - it's the Grauniad
Elon Musk is becoming a one-man rogue state – it’s time we reined him in
He has bankrolled elections, stoked riots and ignored laws. We mustn’t make the mistake of playing nice with the world’s richest bully
Elon Musk is, more or less, a rogue state. His intentions are self-serving and nefarious, and his nation-state level resources allow him to flout the law with impunity. To put it into context, if dollars were metres, Musk’s money would be enough to take him to Mars and back, while a mere millionaire could only make a round trip from Paris to Amsterdam.
Reads like a bit of a lip-trembler, but understandable as Musk represents a septuple whammy for Grauniad folk. He's -

I warned you, Elon! You can only push the Guardian so far...
8. Completely unbothered by the pearl clutching and tut-tutting of those who think signalling virtue is the highest morality.
I don't like Musk, but lefties do lots of pots calling kettles black. Dale Vince anyone? I really don't like him.
Do they not realise that he is Afro- American.
Maybe he is so rich that, unlike the merely very rich like Gates, Pfizer guys, MPs (UK) and their many many ilk, he knows that he does not have to screw us any more.
Sam - then it's Birkin bags at dawn.
DJ - an octuple whammy and the Grauniad is really struggling.
