As Haiti faces an extreme political and societal crisis amid a wave of intense violence, tech billionaire Elon Musk and right-wing pundits online are weaponizing unverified claims of cannibalism coming out of the conflict to advance a political agenda on immigration.

Musk and conservative influencers have spread the message to millions, smearing Haitian migrants as cannibals as they endure deep uncertainty about the future of their country and family members still there.

    Imagine having the ability to reshape the world, to impact thousands upon thousands of lives for the better, to make the Earth a better place than it was before you, to leave a lasting history that people will say your name a hundred years from now and feel inspired that they might be able to do something in a small way that you accomplished across all of humanity. But instead you actively choose to steer your life in the complete opposite direction and be a literal sack of shit named Elon.

      Trump said in a recent rally that Hannibal Lecter is coming across the southern border, and was a ‘great guy. Bit misunderstood’. Crazy

      The left has misunderstood what my intention was in posting this meme. I am taking (sic) about the road warrior collapse that has already begun because of the policy’s (sic) of The Great Reset. I am taking (sic) about Cannibalism as defined as the consumption of another human’s flesh. 10 days without food and over 80% of people start eating each other. You guys want to bring down civilization so I just wanted to warn you. Good luck…

        The idea of killing and eating Alex Jones fucking disgusts me. I think I’d kill him and continue starving, regardless of if I regret it later.

    Speaking of cannibalism. We always talk about eating the rich, but I think we need to do it literally just to prove a point. I’m a vegetarian but I’m willing to take a bite just to prove a point. I got the sweet baby Ray’s ready to go when you guys are up for it.

    Imagine that. A billionaire child molester accusing people of being cannibals. What did this child molester base his accusations on? Did Elon the Child Molester just make up some baseless accusations to smear innocent people with or was he too busy molesting children to make up such a terrible thing about someone?

    Given that it’s almost always projection with these people, has Musk gone full Hannibal Lector?
