On February 2, Musk posted on X: “NED is a SCAM.”

The whole article is great in that it admits to a ton of crimes of the NED while desperately trying to frame it as a good thing.

Main news won't even put the acronym on the headlines, see NYT.

It's very ironic that austerity madness is what is finally killing these exporters of neoliberalism. Somebody should X at musk to cut all funding for the University of Chicago too.

The framing in this piece seemed even more unhinged than most. I had to look up the about page for Freedum Post. Founded by Bari Weiss. The anti-woke snowflake who thought that the incredibly pro-zionist NYT wasn't pro-zionist enough. Who resigned from the NYT, complaining that she was bullied by other NYT journalists who criticized her ideas. Pointing out that your ideas are baseless and franky, fucking dumb as shit, is not bullying lmao!
