your question is wrong and your view on reality of our world is full of falsehoods.  let me correct your question.  > what caused elon musk to be radicalized by the far right? who caused e.m.(the personofication of corporate intetests the talking head for electric vehicles, satellite internet, twatter, payment processors, etc. and the shareholders owning those corporations) to take a more conservative political stance?  well the people and machine that own the mic, the oligarchy, the car industry, the social media, etc.  he is a persona for those factions.  twitter rebranding and trimming off the fat was a warrant canary. its proof of concept that you can just fire fags, dykes, nigresses of color and other useless bloat from a western tech corp and it will still operate.  why turn back to these settings from before 2012?  because people in control have seen this shit is not working out and this will lead them towards loss, losing to rusdia china etc.  rolling back to a previous okish staye of things, so military can recruit enough, corporations can compete, etc.
