    Yeah, he seems more neonazi than nrx to me, that and lashing out towards people who he imagines wronged him. The FAA for example cancelled a contract with him to do some starlink stuff because it was unreliable and slow (approved under trump, cancelled under biden) USAID was investigating him etc. His doge goons are nrx and dismantling everything using AI and dumb regexps, but his focus seems very personal. (Not that it matters as both the neonazis and nrx are bad, delenda est, and they have no trouble working together (so far, the backlash when it all fails is going to be interesting. Musk is already on his default ‘shit is going bad’ moves. Which is trying to change the way the metrics are calculated so you cant notice the fraud. (His GDP bs))).

    E: the nazi memes thing, reminds me of the fear of ‘the left’ cancelling classical literature thing. Which in 99% of the cases turned out to be things like, some random science fiction book, which was changed by the publishers/author/their estate, and the thing changed was the removal of slurs or just iffyly racist chapters.
