When you see this equation, what first comes to your mind? If you’re like most people, you will think of Albert Einstein who has for the last 75 years been linked with the creation of this equation. But that was all a lie. The famous equation relating mass, energy, and the speed of light, had been published by Italian physicist Olinto De Pretto long before Einstein was suddenly given credit for it. Prominent scientists have stated unanimously many times that there is “absolutely nothing to connect Einstein to the derivation of this formula.” [1] I covered this in detail in an article titled “A Few Historical Frauds“. It’s worth reading. [2]
The accusations at the time about Einstein being a thief and plagiarist were so widespread that a special hearing was to be conducted in the archive where David Hilbert’s famous relativity equations resided in their original certified form. Einstein’s subsequent plagiarized publishing of these equations was to be compared to Hilbert’s original. But Einstein supporters broke into the archive during the night and, using a razor, cut out nearly a page of Hilbert’s monograph containing those precise equations. [2a][2b] Naturally, no comparison could be made. Einstein’s personal history is filled with such fraudulent events.
The truth is that Albert Einstein was neither a prominent physicist nor a competent mathematician, and never contributed anything original to either field. Einstein was a plagiarist who simply copied the discoveries of other physicists and took credit for them. It is not a secret in physics today that Albert Einstein was 100% a fraud, even though few want to risk their reputations by revealing the obvious.
Einstein was a Jew, and the Jews decided to promote one of their own to the pinnacle of interstellar stardom by filling all the media for the past 75 years about the “scientific greatness” of an incompetent plagiarist. To say they were successful would be quite an understatement. The simple fact is that if we read the same thing thousands of times in hundreds of sources over many decades, almost everyone will believe it to be true. Since the Jews control the media,opposing voices seldom have the microphone,and the truth is lost from history and from public consciousness.
I mention this because the same kind of legend is being created today about Elon Musk, by the same people using similar methods, and for similar reasons. Probably 95% of everything you know about this man, is false. The thousands of pieces of media exposure relating to Elon Musk are all part of a carefully-planned agenda designed to create a mythical legend that is entirely fabricated nonsense. We have headlines like “Tesla under Elon Musk made the first best electric car”. [3] That is completely false; an outright lie. The Washington Post claims in a headline, “Elon Musk, co-founder of Tesla” [4], another complete falsehood. More on Tesla in a later Part of this series.
There are literally hundreds of claims that have been made about Elon Musk, none with any supporting evidence, but all meant to attribute genius and super-human abilities to an undistinguished con-man. Musk is given totally undeserved credit for ideas or inventions that have been around for hundreds of years in some cases. As one example, “Elon Musk’s” hyperloop train, in its various forms, has been around for at least 200 years. As another, “Musk’s Neuralink” was accomplished in China more than ten years prior, Chinese engineers totally controlling all aspects of a car’s operations with their minds – and no chip implantation necessary.
The Media Flood
As I noted in detail in my E-book “Propaganda and the Media” [5], one sure way to know that we are being subjected to an orchestrated propaganda “image-building” campaign is when all the mass media are suddenly on the same page, giving us seemingly unlimited numbers of articles that all share the same agenda. Today, no opportunity is missed to mention Elon Musk and connect him to something praiseworthy if not grandiose.
Jim Farley is the President of the Ford Motor Company. If Ford launches a new model, the headlines read “Ford launches a new model”, not “Jim Farley launches a new model”. The company is not the man. But attentive readers should have noticed that the media slant is entirely different for Elon Musk. The headline reads “Elon Musk launches SpaceX’s satellite”. [6] The company (SpaceX) has disappeared from view and now apparently consists of only one individual (Elon Musk) who – personally – launched a satellite. The Israel National News promotes one of their favorite sons by headlining, “Elon Musk’s pictures of the solar eclipse from space”. [7] So, we are to believe Elon Musk was wandering around in space with his Leica camera, taking photos of solar eclipses? What nonsense.
But this programmed glorification of Musk is a one-way street. When his giant new rocket exploded shortly after lift-off (again), the headlines told us “SpaceX rocket explodes minutes after launch” [8]. Why wasn’t it “Elon Musk’s rocket explodes minutes after launch”? Because you cannot fabricate a false legend with negatives. When Tesla had to cancel the spectacular inauguration event for its famed (and flawed) Robotaxi, the headlines told us “Tesla delays Robotaxi event” [9], not “Elon Musk delays event”. The bad news about Tesla, SpaceX, et al, belongs to the company, while the good news is all attributed to Elon Musk.
Smoking up the Room
One of the basic strategies of the Jewish Hasbara (misinformation / propaganda) system is to sow confusion whenever a sensitive topic might attract attention unfavorable to the Jews. The standard method is to publish as many contradictory facts, opinions, and positions as possible, on a topic. Truth is not relevant here, nor are sensibility or even plausibility. The process is simply to grab any threads, invisible or not, and weave as thick a carpet as one can. Eventually, readers throw up their hands in confusion and frustration, dismissing the topic as impossible to understand, and abandon further examination or discussion. And, of course, that is the purpose – to dissuade the public from close examination of topics the Jews don’t want closely examined. We see this everywhere, on most topics of geo-political importance, and we see it here in spades on topics related to Elon Musk.
These topics include Musk’s level of intelligence (or, more appropriately, the lack thereof), his educational background, whether or not Musk is a Jew, his roles (or lack thereof) in Tesla, SpaceX and Starlink, OpenAI and Neuralink, the Hyperloop, and much else.
We have a multitude of claims presented as true, claims that flatly contradict each other. Elon Musk “founded” Tesla, but he didn’t. Elon Musk designed the Tesla car, but he didn’t. Elon Musk “owns” Tesla and is the CEO of Tesla, except that he doesn’t and he isn’t. The man dropped out of a Ph.D. program, except that he was never enrolled in one. Musk founded OpenAI, except that he didn’t. The list is very long. The only three items on which there appear to be universal agreement about Elon Musk are that:(1) he is a sociopathic bully, (2) he is both delusional and a liar, and (3) his primary “activity” at SpaceX and Tesla is wandering the halls to solicit sex from the female staff. These are all well-documented and will be discussed in later articles in this series.
Elon Musk’s Educational Background
Questionable at best, from what we can find in the record. Musk seems to have attended a Canadian university for perhaps a year, but the educational thread unravels after that. There is evidence he attended some classes at the University of Pennsylvania, but no evidence he was ever a full-time student. Musk claims to have a degree in physics from the University of Pennsylvania, as well as a degree in Economics from their Wharton School. Both claims appear to have serious problems.
One website tells us that after a brief stint at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, “[Musk] in 1992 transferred to the University of Pennsylvania, where he received bachelor’s degrees in physics and economics in 1997. He enrolled in graduate school in physics at Stanford University in California, but he left after only two days…” [10] None of this appears to be true as stated, and those making the claims lack the credentials to do so.
Another website tells us, “[Musk] transferred to the University of Pennsylvania after two years of Canadian education. At U Penn, he completed two bachelor’s degrees simultaneously: Physics from the College of Arts and Sciences and Economics from the Wharton School. Despite receiving an acceptance to Stanford University’s Materials Science PhD program in 1995, Musk made a bold decision to pursue his entrepreneurial dreams. Two days after starting the PhD program, he left the doctorate to join the internet revolution, although his application to Netscape went unanswered.” [11] And the author of these startling confirmations? A man who presents as his autobiography the following: “Hello! I’m Garfield Conner. I’m an avid reader, continually expanding my horizons through diverse literature. I’m excited to contribute my insights on academic topics.”
Readers should note the nonsense in the above reference: In 1995, Musk had no degrees, and only possibly a few classes to his credit, and was never accepted into a Ph.D. program anywhere. Another nonsense item is that Musk apparently threw away his Ph.D. studies “after only two days” because he wanted “to join the internet revolution”. And how would he do this? Well, by applying for a job with Netscape, which was the first good Internet browser and search engine. The fact that Netscape didn’t even bother to reply to his job application letter, apparently didn’t deter this genius from throwing away a (non-existent) Ph.D. program.
“Musk was sued for misrepresenting his educational and professional background to secure a business opportunity, [and the] documents … raised inconsistencies about [his] educational record. Elon has claimed that he earned a degree in Physics from the University of Pennsylvania in 1995. That’s not true.” The “fact-checking” website Snopes weighs in on this to tell us that the University mysteriously dropped the requirements for degrees and thus Musk “technically” qualified for a degree. [12]
Below is a photo of what appears to be an undergraduate economics degree issued by U Penn. Below that is a photo of what appears to be an undergraduate degree certificate (B.A.), but with no discipline stated, and definitely not in physics or any of the sciences. [13] I know of no university that grants general, unspecified undergraduate degrees with no named program or major.
Musk claims, and U Penn appears to concur, that Musk had not completed the requirements for any degree. Indeed, one researcher stated that Elon Musk lied about his credentials, that he did not have a degree in physics or any technical field, and that he did not get into any Ph.D. program. This is very muddy; Musk claims, as do his supporters, that he completed the “double degree” at U Penn in five years, but he transferred to U Penn in late 1992 and by early 1995 he was already busy full-time developing his Zip2 business directory company.
And it quickly becomes muddier when U Penn inexplicably “waived the requirements” necessary for a degree (two degrees, actually), so that passing the required number of classes was no longer necessary. What would have caused such a magical turn of events? Well, the same researcher (as above) claims that “investors quietly arranged a diploma”. [14] We already know that almost anyone can obtain admission to (and graduation from) Harvard University with a payment of $3 to $5 million, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that U Penn would grant (sell) a degree to Elon Musk when an “investor” opened his cheque book.
And then a bit later, U Penn has an “Elon Musk Public Lecture” series which was “made possible through a generous endowment”. The endowment must have been generous indeed: “The Musk lecture brings world-renowned scientists in the areas of particle physics and cosmology to Penn to share their knowledge and vision.” [15]
And after this, everything stinks.Readers should note that this business of “purchase by endowment” is almost entirely a Jewish tradition. There may be a few Gentiles who participate in these frauds, but they are much a minority. These so-called endowments are used to obtain not only admission to – and degrees from – a university, but also naming rights to a hospital, a business school, a University department, lecture series, public buildings, even public parks and streets.
These “endowments” are presented as “a testament to the generosity and deep commitment of Jewish donors”, where “Across North American campuses, some of the most iconic university buildings bear Jewish names”. [16] Yes, and not only in North America, but these are testaments to Jews’ desire to perpetuate their names and appearance of influence, rather than to “generosity”. Columbia University has the Milstein Center; Harvard University has the Belfer Center; U Penn has the Perelman Quadrangle; Northwestern University has the Pritzker School of Law. We have a Sheldon Chumir hospital, a Seymour Schulich School of Business, and on and on and on. And of course, we have the Elon Musk B.A. in Economics and the Elon Musk lecture series on physics. What more could you want?
Back to Elon Musk, the only theory that fits all the known facts, comprises the following:
– Elon Musk lied about his academic credentials
– Musk was never enrolled in any Ph.D. program anywhere.
– The undergraduate degrees he may hold, appear to have been granted without completing the requirements and thus were undeservedly (fraudulently?) obtained
– The mitigating factor in the granting of these degrees, appears to have been money, assisted by pressure, bribery, and greed
This may sound harsh, but it’s where the facts seem to lead us. You can form your own conclusion.
The CEO of Everything
What is a CEO? A corporation’s Chief Executive Officer. This is the man who runs the show, who manages the entire organisation, who directs all the Department heads, who makes most of the important decisions. Typically, the CEO of a railroad has spent his entire working career in that field, gradually progressing in knowledge and judgment to that senior position. There are no examples of a person simultaneously being the CEO of more than one large corporation. The CEO of Boeing is not also the CEO of Ford Motors and Merck Pharmaceuticals. The reasons are obvious: no one has the knowledge or expertise (or human ability) to simultaneously manage several huge companies in such diverse fields. Each position has exclusively different requirements and each is very much a demanding full-time job.
However, this theory seems to hold true for everyone but Elon Musk, who is claimed as “The founder and CEO” of Tesla, of Starlink, of SpaceX, OpenAI, and others, as well as controlling Hyperloop transportation systems, Neuralink mental depravities, and so many other things.
But in real life, Elon Musk is not the CEO of anything. A few years ago, media reports made this very plain: I don’t recall their exact quote, but all said the same thing: “Elon Musk has no management responsibilities in any corporation with which he is associated.” You can’t be plainer than that. This should not be a surprise. Musk has no experience whatever in auto manufacturing, rocket design or space exploration, artificial intelligence, hyperloop transportation, or indeed in anything at all. How could an individual pretend to be the CEO of many companies in whose industries he possesses no useful knowledge or experience?
And in fact, from all the media reports, Musk’s only “activity” in any of those companies (including Tesla) was roaming the halls soliciting the female staff for sex. Yes, that’s really true. More later.
Elon Musk, The “Influencer”
But if Elon Musk isn’t a CEO, then what is he? That is the right question to ask. Elon Musk is an “influencer”. That is his role; it is why he was placed in the positions he holds by the people who actually own and control the companies he supposedly “manages”. Look at the image below. It is a screenshot record of the posts Elon Musk has made on Twitter (ignoring all other social media). Each dot represents one post, tens of thousands in total.
Who has the time to do this? Do we see Warren Buffet of Berkshire Hathaway making thousands of posts on Twitter? Do we see the President of any company doing this? Of course not. The reason is that they are busy. They have full-time jobs that are demanding, and making tens of thousands of posts would itself be a full-time job. But the standard narrative is that Elon Musk is the full-time CEO of so many large corporations and yet is apparently able to spend 24 hours each day making (mostly foolish) posts on the Internet.
Image Source
And this is by no means all of Musk’s “influencing” activity. Yet another “influencing” job that must be nearly full-time is the plethora of Internet videos featuring Elon Musk. There are almost certainly many thousands of YouTube and other videos on the Internet, featuring Elon Musk offering his opinions and fantasies on every subject imaginable. These videos all share the common feature that, with very few exceptions, they are clearly scripted. With Musk’s monologues – of which there are many – he is often obviously reading the content.
Every video with an interviewer is also obviously scripted; the sycophantic interviewer gently poses a scripted question to which Musk offers his scripted response. There are never any challenges to his often-ridiculous statements, no penetrating follow-up questions, but merely an acceptance of the scripted response. None of this is an accident; it is all part of a large agenda meant to register Elon Musk in a viewer’s mind as being an expert on that topic – and there are many hundreds of such topics. This is much more than nothing. Someone, or some group of persons, has spent an enormous amount of time to arrange and script all these videos and interviews. And it wasn’t Elon Musk.
It should be obvious from these two elements alone, to say nothing of his (also) full-time job eviscerating the US Federal civil service, that Elon Musk has no time to be involved in the management of anything, and certainly not companies like SpaceX or Tesla, each of which would be a demanding full-time job.
A Dog’s Tale
A friend of mine once had a Husky dog, the typical workhorse of the far North. This dog was so stupid it was adorable. As a puppy, it was so happy to be called that it would come running at full-speed, and if there happened to be a table leg or a tree in the way, it wouldn’t notice. It would crash head-on into that tree, nearly rendering itself unconscious in the process.That’s Elon Musk.
I am by no means the only person to have noticed this. The Los Angeles Times published a long article titled, “Is Elon Musk a genius or an idiot?”[17] They asked the right question and arrived at the correct answer. One writer penned an article claiming Musk was an 87 IQ (or 97) masquerading as 137, and that’s about right. We are often told that there is a fine line between genius and insanity. I have a theory that there is a similarly fine line between stupidity and insanity, a line which Elon Musk crosses with an alarming frequency, as you will see.
Yet the propaganda machine works non-stop to present Elon Musk as one of the most remarkable geniuses in history. We have articles like “Elon Musk’s IQ and the Nature of Genius”, [18] pretending to be scholarly detached works of philosophy but which are just propaganda nonsense. There are many such articles, nearly all with missing bylines, but all on Jewish-owned websites, building the myth. Most claim Musk’s IQ to be 160. They are all rubbish, with absolutely no evidence to support their fantastic assertions.
In another instance, a deluded sycophant named James Dorn (a Jew) tells us “Elon Musk is basically a real-life Tony Stark, a multibillionaire engineer [who] has achieved things in technology that seem almost fictional.” [19] Dorn continues, as do many others, to tell us that Musk’s IQ is “most likely” around 160, placing him in a list with Stephen Hawking and other great scientists.
But Elon Musk is not an engineer, not a scientist, and there is absolutely NO evidence that Musk has ever actually achieved anything in technology, not even the fictional kind. And who is “James K. Dorn”? According to him, “I am a passionate gamer deeply immersed in the world of video gaming. My journey in gaming is not just about playing; it’s about exploring every facet of the games I love.” Perfect credentials to support the evaluation and testing of intelligence. (If you’re Chinese, this is called sarcasm).
But in fact, we all take multiple IQ tests through high school, university entrance and so on. Show us the test results. Prove to us that Elon Musk really doesn’t have a room-temperature IQ. Not to be done. We can’t destroy our own narrative, so claims suffice as irrefutable evidence, mythically taking on a biblical quality where they become unquestionable. So much rubbish.
