With books like White Fragility, it isn't that hard to believe whatsoever.. I was a left-winger, now I am neither left or right, especially not right, but politically homeless. I know for a fact lefties believe what the "Goldstein" article was about.. But hey, you were a liar and deceiver in 2015, but now you are truthful. Also, born in 1995, so you were on Twitter in 2006 eh, at age 11 lol. I have been online since the 90s, before you were born, and I was a left-winger who hated Bush et al. This sounds more like a hit piece than any kind of proof the article was so out there only right wing nut jobs would believe it. I take it, it was you who created "white privilege" and that isn't real either, only something white right-wingers believe, lol. Just sad. Have you ever considered lefties read it and swallowed it, hook line and sinker, and you influenced them to hate whites?

> Do I think for a second that Elon Musk actually believes that “Emily Goldstein” is a real person who really, sincerely called for the genocide of all white people in earnest? No, of course not. Elon Musk may have fried his brain with ketamine, but he is certainly not stupid. He knows very well that the article is fake rage bait.

I wouldn't be so sure. I doubt Musk spent >30s writing his tweet about the article. He's not going to personally fact check every tweet he runs across on the internet.

The article itself is not so incredulous as to be disbelieved at first glance. In this day and age anti-white sentiment of this magnitude is not uncommon. See for example this video:

Honestly, it's just that we have no idea who you are. You are a self-touted "most famous troll writer from the age of 11," but you just seem like another lying moron in his mommy's basement to me.

Agreed. It’d be interesting if this person really was “Emily Goldstein,” but I just can’t be sure. He has an obvious history of dishonesty, after all.

You know what they say, the best satire is indistinguishable from sincerity.

Omg Australi Witness was a troll???

I'm truly behind the times. I remember you from Twitter from back in the day.

I got incidentally in trouble with police for trolling as IS supporter online, but luckily it was so over the top that they accepted that as a satire. Phew.
