Summary
JD Vance defended Marko Elez, a 25-year-old Musk aide after racist posts surfaced, including “Normalize Indian hate.”
Elez resigned but was reinstated following Vance’s support, despite Vance’s wife being of Indian descent. Vance dismissed criticism, arguing past social media posts shouldn’t ruin careers.
Musk backed Elez after a public poll. Rep. Ro Khanna challenged Vance, who responded dismissively, sparking backlash.
The incident has intensified scrutiny of Musk’s hiring practices and Vance’s stance on racism.
His Indian kids are reaching that age when they either realize he’s a hateful insufferable piece of shit, OR they themselves become spoiled rich assholes with no moral compass and live off the griff.
By the looks of him, he wasn’t getting any from his wife a while ago.
JD Vance is clearly gay and can’t admit it to himself, which is why he’s married to a woman he clearly doesn’t love, AKA, a Beard.
Right. So if I have he/him in my email signature I get fired. But if i have hugely racist and problematic tweets that are less than a year old while having almost no experience or credentials whatsoever other than being a little buddy buddy with Musk I get to push out dangerous untested code to the most important payment system in the country so musk can block social security benefits for Grandma like he blocks tweets talking about how terrible a father he is. Got it.
Oh don’t get all up in arms about the honor of usha Vance here. She is a Republican too and voted for these neo Nazis into office along with the other neo Nazis.
There’s no honor to defend here, she’s one of them.
It’s so sad because if you look at their resumes, Usha Vance is actually much more accomplished than her husband. Peter Thiel just prefers JD, I guess.
JD, the vice president, completely disappears for months at a time and imply pops up to be a racist prick and throw his family under the bus
Musk backed Elez after a public poll
Was that ‘public poll’ done on twitter? Im sure that was fairly conducted.
These fuckers don’t have a concept of honour.
Looks like someone is sleeping on the couch.
*with
Nah, she knows that would be a reward not a punishment lmao
Wrong preposition lol
“Yea, but not my wife, she’s one of the ‘good’ ones!” - JD, in his mind
His wife has the same attitude or she would have divorced him.
Men this powerful have to have guiding principles. Hate above all else. You can’t compromise.
tfw you’re a woman maga voter and realize the only reason you exist to them is to make sammiches in the times between getting fucked

It must be monotonous after a while, just getting bread your whole life.
man yeah! fetishization is a pattern of hate. he does not love his wife for who she is. he does lot engage with issues of discrimination she experiences and try to mitigate them from a place of loving her as a fellow human. quite the opposite, in fact. to him she is a sexual status symbol and nothing more. and either she knows that and rolls with it because feMAGAle voters are lapdogs selling out their sisters for temporary comfort, or she’s deeply embedded in a system of hate that becomes invisible to you when it’s normalized by everyone who’s around you. in other words she either knows and just grifts on him to do her scams like melania does, or she’s so broken by the hegemony she doesn’t know it’s possible for your husband to love you.
but anyone’s who’s surprised doesn’t know who these people are
The joke just writes itself!
Well, it’s obvious this man just hates his wife.
She probably agrees with him. These people are all scumbags.
Some insight from across the pond:
Our last Prime Minister was a British Indian from the Conservative party. Recent right wing and far-right members of cabinet have included many more Brits of Indian descent, including two of the most heinously anti-immigrant cabinet members we’ve ever had. One of them, Suella Braverman, ran for party leadership on an anti-immigrant platform, pointing out that Indians are the largest group who overstay their visas in the UK.
I think very similar things can explain why Usha Vance, Kash Patel, Vivek Ramaswamy and the like can align with an openly racist MAGA crowd:
-
Class matters more than race. Most of these people grew up privileged and don’t identify with the common immigrant or brown person’s experson
-
Power hungry people come from all backgrounds and will do whatever they need to get what they want (in Usha Vance’s case that’s being first lady one day)
-
Submitting to model minority status, as many well-to-do immigrant families from South Asia do, means implicitly accepting, and ultimately reflecting, white supremacist values
And as with all issues rooted in history, you can blame the British for some of this. A white supremacist world view where Indians stand above the darker races was introduced to India by the British over a century ago. The British wanted East Africa to become “the America of the Hindu” so they educated and trained a generation of Indian colonial administrators and enforcers. This world view of Indians as superior to others, if subordinate to whites, did not disappear with colonialism. A lot of the people who held those views came directly to Britain and their children became right-wing voters and politicians. The connection with the US is less of a straight line, but you can hear it when you listen to Vivek talk about African-Americans, for example.
I think you’re pretty spot on. Nicely said.
