Why the Democrat Party Turned Against Elon Musk?

In May 2022, Musk posted this tweet:

“In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party. But they have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican. Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold…”

He correctly predicted that the media would start attacking him. And that’s exactly what happened.

Within days, major news outlets changed their tone. Before this, Musk was called a “genius” and “visionary.” After the tweet, headlines described him as “dangerous,” “reckless,” and even “a threat to democracy.”

Musk predicted this would happen—and it did.

In fact, the popular media even started maligning his family and wrote articles to prove their theory that Musk is a villain and his family is racist.

See for yourself – Google Elon Musk and his family and check when the negative articles are dated. 

How the Media Turned on Musk

Before his tweet:
✅ Praised for Tesla, SpaceX, and clean energy.
✅ Seen as a progressive innovator helping the planet.
✅ Supported by Democrats for pushing green technology.

After his tweet:
❌ Criticized as a billionaire who wants too much power.
❌ Accused of spreading misinformation on Twitter.
❌ Linked to the far-right even though his views stayed mostly the same.

His purchase of Twitter (now X) made things worse. Seeing the growing censorship and government influence, he stopped the unfair practices and allowed free speech.

This upset many journalists and politicians.

Suddenly, he was blamed for everything from hate speech to election interference.

Media Picks Heroes and Villains

This is not just about Musk. The media does this to many people.

Other public figures, like Joe Rogan and Tulsi Gabbard, were once loved by Democrats. But when they started questioning certain political ideas, the media turned against them too.

Why?

Because many news outlets don’t just report facts. They tell stories where there must be good guys and bad guys. As long as Musk fit their “good guy” image, they liked him.

Once he stepped outside that role, they attacked.

They even tried to label Musk as a Nazi. They twisted a tweet he made about an old symbol (which wasn’t Nazi-related) and used it to push the narrative. And recently they branded a “I love you” gesture to the crowd at a republican campaign rally as a Nazi salute.

These are serious accusations. And they were completely false.

Musk has repeatedly condemned hate and antisemitism.

But the goal wasn’t truth—it was to destroy his reputation. And many popular magazines started to push the same false angle.

How This Affects Us?

Many people still watch mainstream media even though trust is declining. And because Musk is criticized, they believe the new version of Musk without questioning it.

Others see through the lies and recognize a pattern. And lose trust in the news altogether.

This is dangerous. People expect to be able to trust at least the top media outlets, but instead the media is peddling lies.

The result? More division and less open discussion.

Elon Musk didn’t change much. But the way people talk about him did. His story shows how the media shapes public opinion—not always fairly.

The lesson? Think for yourself.

Just because you may vote Democrat doesn’t mean you have to support false propaganda.
