Has Musk ever even pretended to be Christian? I thought he was always an edgy internet atheist type?

Even Richard Dawkins calls himself "culturally Christian" these days.
Christian
edgy internet atheist
It’s weird how antitheists and Christian snobs alike enjoy disparaging enemy movements as ‘religions’.
”Belief in a god is illogical. This is why I believe in realistic things like a tunnel for cars, bipedal robot slaves in every home, solar power generating roof tiles, uhh, fully automated self suck, the thai kid submersible, terraforming mars, and the ‘war of civilizations’ between the West and the Muslim East. It’s le science.”
More of that western christofascist alignment that several supremacist types align themselves with. Especially the atheist ones
Yeah, I'm sure he'd say that he is "culturally Christian" or whatever.
I came up with "culturally Christian" to describe myself (atheist but does the Christian holidays) like three minutes before the fascists started using it and ruined it. Very annoyed with them.
e.g. he celebrates christmas and says "God bless you" when you sneeze.
Mostly just a white supremacist dog whistle. The whole clash of civilisations thing.
Same reason we get Kash Patel saying ‘See you in Valhalla’ about Charlie Kirk. It is all just cosplay.
And it gives him carte blanche to be frothing at the mouth racist against Muslims and get away with it!
Which is so annoying given that the vikings and muslims were pretty chill with one another. (For bad reasons, sure, the shared love of the slave trade was obviously bad) But a reason we know so much about the vikings is muslims writing shit down, and there's a bunch of islamic world treasure in viking burial sites.
The ADL is a hate group, just not for the reasons he believes and not against christians.
Just found out they were raided by the FBI for infiltrating anti apartheid groups and sending info to the apartheid government.
Well, the ADL hates Palestinian Christians, though that's obviously not what Musk means
The actual article is even more funny. Apparently some guy took the ADL webpage for Christian Identity, an anti-semitic hate group, and just clipped off a screen shot of just the words "Christian Identity" being filled under "Extremism, Hate and Terrorism" and Musk 100% took the bait. https://gizmodo.com/the-adl-defended-elon-musks-awkward-gesture-now-he-calls-it-a-hate-group-2000665034
the article claiming maybe musk didnt know and he'd veen tricked is pretty generous, and to say maybe he just doesn't have the smarts anyway is letting him off too easily
i have not seen a photograph from this angle wow its so much more blatant (from the article)
I like that this angle shows the hogs in the audience being excited and happy about someone finally going full nazi in public too.
Absolutely.
It's a good angle.
the ADL hates Christians
critical support to the ADL
I mean, the ADL probably also saw this coming and banked on it when they defend overt white nationalists and nazis to benefit the zionist project, as cynical as that sounds
In the eyes of a lot of liberals this probably entirely legitimizes them 
😔
Downbear downbear DOWNBEAR!
Fight amongst yourselves, assholes.
Let them fight.
Thinking about it though, they probably are just not for any of the reasons stated.
Let them fight
Hating free for all.
They're both hateful.
