On Friday I saw this post shared by a couple of friends of mine. Why did Musk and Trump make these false claims? Ignorance? Stupidity? Malice? Well, with the current Republican party, usually it's a combination of all three. But wait, should I just be accepting Toshi's post explaining what's going on? I usually don't accept random posts as facts. Well, in this case, it was posted independently by a couple of friends of mine who are knowledgeable, smart, and also don't blindly share posts they can't confirm as fact.
