What?!…Elon Musk Goes After MeidasTouch?!! Ben Meiselas and MeidasTouch Network Jan 2 Written by Ben Meiselas I will keep this short. I started getting a ton of messages yesterday that Elon Musk and his brigade of right-wing nuts were going after MeidasTouch and our Editor-In-Chief, Ron Filipkowski. It turns out that the big right-wing accounts were hosting a meeting on X (formerly Twitter) in front of a massive audience on the “Spaces” feature of X, where users moderate audio meetings. Apparently, one of the biggest topics they were discussing was that they hated MeidasTouch and wanted to “come after us” and “shut us down.” One of the main speakers at the Spaces meeting was an account called “Adrian Dittman.” The Dittman account sounds almost identical to Elon Musk, and many have suggested Dittman is actually an “alt” account used by Musk, although Musk claims it isn’t him. In any event, before the biggest right-wing audience of the day on X, the MeidasTouch Network was apparently the biggest topic. Here was one of the messages I got that initially alerted me that they were attacking us on Spaces: Here is an example of one of the countless threats we got after the Spaces took place from far-right-wing accounts: As I said before, this type of behavior and these types of threats by MAGA and other far-right-wing elements do not scare us. We know that we scare them. We know that we are on the top of their “enemies list” because they fear our reach and know that the Meidas Mighty is capable of bringing them down. One of the reasons I was pushing to increase our subscriber reach on this Substack was because I knew how hard Trump and Musk and their right-wing cult would try to come after us in 2025. I wanted to make sure the network has the infrastructure in place that is needed. Well, they didn’t waste any time and spent the first day of 2025 trying to rally their base to intimidate us. Well, once again, it didn’t work. When you don’t have outside investors, are not beholden to oligarchs, and your guiding light is the truth and being accountable to the Meidas Mighty like us, there is nothing Trump, Musk, or their MAGA punks can do to stop or slow our mission. It all just makes us work harder. I couldn’t be more thrilled than to be in this fight in 2025 with you, the Meidas Mighty. Let’s keep pushing forward. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead! Onward!
