Never-Trumper Rick Wilson, a co-founder of The Lincoln Project, threw a fit Wednesday after he was banned from X for posting an article headlined, “Kill Tesla, Save The Country.”
Wilson’s Substack article referred to Tesla as “a bank for fascists, a goose-stepping hedge fund bankrolling the political fever dreams of Elon Musk and his DOGE dreams of controlling the ruins of the American government as he becomes Earth’s first trillionaire and then the Emperor of Mars.” Wilson initially said he was suspended from posting on X for 30 days for a violation of the site’s rules, but later revealed his ban was elevated “to a full suspension.”
“This is the article that got me banned on Twitter. Nazis? Fine. Racist freaks? Perfectly ok. Describing a social and media campaign to hit Tesla’s stock price? Sissy SpaceX freaks the fuck out,” he wrote on Bluesky.
