    The article literally lists their names, so I’d say they’re pretty well identified.

      No, it does not. He has a “team” of this kids he’s using as Hitler Youth stand-ins that are not even identified by name.

          Yes, that is not the name of his team. The same unidentified people he had in the Treasury Payment system, and the same group he’s been touting since the election.

            Your comments are confusing. Who are you referring to using the words “unidentified people”?

            When I use https://archive.is/YAmss#selection-729.0-729.118 I see a list of names of engineers, which is surely a list of “The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk’s Government Takeover”.

              Well then you’re not doing the bare minimum:

              https://theconcernedbird.substack.com/p/elon-musks-and-xs-role-in-2024-election

              There are literally dozens of instances of these people bragging about this shit, and Musk referring to his “dark team”.

              If you’re coming here and asserting they don’t exist, there’s the door you absolutely blind shill.

              There are dozens of instances of him SPECIFICALLY referencing this “young team of upstarts” in helping with his Super PAC as well, and “looking into elections”.

              If you’re too dumb to put this all together, he has a team of engineers he’s paying in crypto so he’s not tied to it or on the books that is subversive to out government, the law, elections, and by all accounts “norms”. He is not an elected official. He’s also bragged about using the same team in Germany RIGHT NOW.

              Run away with your ignorance.

                I think you’re confused.

                You are saying they are unidentified.

                They are telling you their names are listed in the article, they aren’t saying they don’t exist

                If you’re coming here and asserting they don’t exist

                I don’t think “his “dark team”” doesn’t exist, because people that you are probably referring to are named the news article this discussion is based on.

                Were you referring to “The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk’s Government Takeover” using the words “unidentified people”?

                I also haven’t found anywhere Elon Musk expressed having a “dark team” (though they might have expressed something similar using different words): https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ftsa&q=“dark+team”+musk&ia=web

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
