The days between Christmas and the New Year are a listless, liminal time.
Where to even start.
The problem was H1-B Visas.

You see, immigrant Elon Musk thinks that Americans are lazy and entitled.
To help it prosper, they want to bring in more highly skilled tech workers on H1-B Visas.
A key part of it comes down to the c-word: culture.
A post on the day after Christmassummed upwhat had happened.
The post saidAmericans were stupid.
Musk agreed with it, then deleted his agreement.
He said that thehateful, unrepentant racistsshould be removed from the Republic Party.
Good luck with that.
Dittmann is a bluecheck X account thatloves to defend Musk.
The pair first appeared together in a Twitter spaceback in 2023.
Theyrepeated the performanceduring the H1-B visa dustup.
The thing is, Dittmann sounds and acts exactly like Elon Musk.
The account seemingly only exists to inflate Musks ego and defend his various positions.
When both of them are in the same virtual space, its impossible to tell them apart.
This has led to allegations that Dittmann is an alt-account of Musks, something that even theestranged billionaires daughterbelieves.
The truth of Dittmann is impossible to know.
Either possibility is too horrifying to contemplate in these strange and wandering days between Christmas and New Year.
Did you know that Germany has a parliamentary election coming up?
Germanys government is in crisis and the coalition that was ruling it has collapsed.
At the end of February, Germans will decide the future of the country.
Musk would like that future to be ahard-right turn.
The AfD is a party thatbumbles its wayinto aNazi-related controversyevery few weeks.
It would also, presumably, be good for Musks business interests abroad.
Hence why he wrote the op-ed.
Musks endorsement in the paper was so scandalous that Welt am Sonntags editorresigned in protest.
He first endorsed AfD on the day before Christmas.
The worlds richest man went into 2025 with the same energy hed cultivated in 2024.
The holidays are hard on some of us.
Musks solution seems to be to post through it.
News from the future, delivered to your present.
