Elon Musk changes X handle to Kekius Maximus. What does it mean?

The world’s richest man’s new handle and avatar appear to refer to a cryptocurrency – but they both include references previously co-opted by the far right

www.independent.co.uk

Right-wing billionaire Elon Musk has changed his name to “Kekius Maximus” on X, the social media platform he owns, signaling support for a type of cryptocurrency.

The world’s richest man changed his name on X on Tuesday and updated his profile photo to an edited picture of “Pepe the Frog,” a meme that has been co-opted by hate groups.


Musk has been at President-elect Donald Trump’s side since he won the election, appearing to be one of his closest advisors. He has also been named as co-chair of the new Department of Government Efficiency. Alongside co-leader Vivek Ramaswamy, Musk has vowed to cut hundreds of millions of dollars from the federal government’s budget in the role.

The reason I posted this was not so much because of the intrique and controversy. But because I am into social artifacts. In some ways I believe social artificats can be very helpful in underscoring some themes in our day that might have more social currency or relevance than they otherwise might if we were not living in such interesting times. For instance, posting this 100 years ago might have been helpful public socio-political commentary, but in terms of it being any such thing as much more would have fallen to eroding tides of philosphical chances in society. And then on to the next thing.

To me, this meme moment is a rather helpful momentary pause to stop and smell the flowers. Not that I desire to equate Kek the Frog as a flower to smell. But rather its moment. Why? Mostly because from what I have seen we live in complex times. And there are a lot of concepts that seem to blend into each other. So when there is an opportunity to barrow meme culture as prime time quick study evaluation stop-off along the way...it tends to cover a lot of ground simultanously and helps keep my posts generally shorter over time (so yeah...I guess there is a bit of a self serving motive here...lol...but its exercise could also result in TCC being more sisinct...which is not exactly a bad thing).

Now for essay etiquette I would like to give a GENERIC observation and then also a creative (insane hot sauce) version. So if this format is not helpful to our community, I would understand if it were removed. But in any event, I would hope perhaps the GENERIC remain because I believe there is a link in it to sober thoughts concerning our socio-political terrian.

. . . . .

GENERIC

So I think there are some interesting features here:

• The worlds richest man changes into a familiar 2016 Trump affirming meme
• Worl's richest man does this on extremely hot social media platform with massive awareness and coverage
• World's richest man flashes meme trolling the establishment

It is that last bullet that I believe is most interesting. Because right now we know Germany has an election coming up in February. And Pepe in this article is touted as hate speech, by no other than the free speech controlling "fact checkers" of Europe. That doesn't sound Nazi at all. In irony, I believe, Germany is saturated with EU speak/Climate Change speak/Globalism to say it succinctly. So I thought this is interesting and helpful to notice. That Germany, known for its Nazi history, has made the AFD Nazi's. While excusing its emperialistic (a true Nazi trope) tendency to emasculate individual European nation state individuality. While enforcing Arab Spring fallout to dilute individual state identity further. Which is very similar to the open border syndrome held in America when a globlaist president (Biden) is in charge. So the effects on Europe are really no different than the effect on the USA when the role of immigration is played out. Globalism interest is to erode national identity and make strong nationalism a hate theme. No borders, no national identity = civilized. Wanting the Genesis God given table of nations to "not be" a thing anymore.

I don't state the above to justify the AFD. For who knows what interests are all caught up in that group. But what the world is aware of is that Germany has become an epicentric focus of all things globlaists leaning. Which makes sense they would have an interest to understand something more about their own national pride (meant in a good, sound, and sober sense). I imagine there might be white supremacy types drawn to the AFD. But it seems that today we have come to classify any nation that does not want to be stampeded by immigration that erodes national identity as Natzi. Yet, at the same time the Western world use literal Nazi's in Ukraine as representing the globalist sense of democracy vs. Russia. In that sense, democracy is merely an ideology to exploit while using Nazi's to guard globalist money laundering interests in Ukraine. And just call all of that, democracy. PEW Research did an interesting overview of the AFD:

7 facts about Germany’s AfD party

Alternative for Germany (AfD) is the first far-right political party to win a state election in Germany since World War II.

www.pewresearch.org

This post is not about the AFD or a support for far right leanings potentially within that party. What is meant here is a clear demonstration by how the "Idenepent" uses language to shape ideology. From that it is clear that the left wants to intimidate any sense of individuality apart from their interpretation of themes as far right wing, Nazi, extremists, or conspiracy theorists. Setting themselves up as the voice of reason...all the while eroding slowly over time seductively, a sense of reality about ourselves. So in that sense, it would seem Elon's connection to German election intererence and changing his X avatar to Pepe seems timely (on the eve of January 20th). So it's an interesting collection of meme culture for sure. But I just thought it to be helpful to see through the hype and just let the reality of motives (good/bad/or indifferent) have a chance to champion the heart more than perhaps a socially configured eye-roll might seem more immediately fitting.

POTENTIAL TakeAways

• It would make sense why Elon and Vivek and Trump might in contrast to the above dig their heals in regards to H1-B Visa's / by contrast
• I hate Trump's flip-flops on H1-B -- First boisterously against them, then becomes Elon's lap dog in favor of them -- Yuk...I hate that
• But in contrast to the above, in a lot of ways it does take the edge off the white supremacy theme the left will miraculously use on world culture
• Of course Trump could just be milquetoast on themes...but the Pepe meme I believe helps to see the contrast a bit more...just saying

OTHER LESSER POTENTIAL TAKE-AWAYS

• A man's ability "Elon" to cause value to meme -- Causing a literal meme coin to skyrocket in currency
• And that the above bullet is even a thing
• And the irony of Musk's relation to Dogecoin...and then become Doge himself
• And the irony that Dogecoin started as a mock meme against crypto currency and in so doing became a crypto currency itself (the proverbial underdog, litterally, syndrome) -- Dogecoin was named after a popular meme that combined a Shiba Inu dog and a misspelled version of the word "dog"

Which leads me to more poetic side, lol...

INSANE HOT SAUCE
If you just read all the above, how might this have sounded to someone 100 years ago? How about 1,000 years ago? Like in what world do meme's become literal currency? And irony become literal money? In the world we live in today. So it is on those wings I would ask you to please consider the more poetic side here. Because what I just said here...is not poetic. It is not only real. But in our faces real. That is how loudly real it is. At the end of the day we could say, "Yeah but it does not amount to much. That and a buck will get you a cup of coffee a year from now." I understand.

But putting conspiracy theory to bed, what are we witnessing? Isn't it interesting that to even get to first cause mode here is like a chore for a superhero? "Hey Superman, can you tell me which end of this box is UP?" And he replies: "Well, for that, hold on, I'm gonna need my cape. Let me get it...be right back." So really? Look at how muddy it can be just to take notice of certain very basic things occuring. It almost seems like even common occurance is held hostage to political hysteria. lol.

So I won't belabor this because it is the more "out there" side of the street. But I just think it is note worthy that a frog meme has not fallen to the wayside like network television has. But actually risen to the top ,of the social media cup of coffee, like cream and implies by metaphor of a video game also gaining steam that things might be getting like level 80 ya'll...by metaphoric troll. Now this could be rich kid visions of grandiosity. And we just go on and on with ups and downs. Or there might be some huge dynamics in play. We will only know when we get there. So it will be interesting. But what is also interesting about all of this is that if it does become "biblical," then, in what sense does meme culture have in prophesy? I have not seen anything in the Bible inferring memes share a role in its use. And so here is the hot sauce: But just like it would seem the book of Revelation to be written in a literary style that would not be a thing for 1800 years to come (modular narrative). And just as the book of Revelation might be written in literary style most for the time it is for (modular narrative is most popular in Hollywood). Could it also be a consideration that the proliferation of meme-ology be also somewhat a philosphical street graffiti version of literary style also arriving on the wings of the time it is for? If it turns out that we are on the verge of an apocolyptic age cross hair moment approaching, where would we have ever found that in theological works throughout the centuries?

Sure we would see thematic meme like overtures in the book of Revelation as has been seen in historic commentaries. Most popularly known as seeing Revelation archetype pictographs as the Catholic Church. And later added to it Freemasonry America. BUT, what if its not that as much as it is a tip of the hat in memology metaphor itself? Like the way in which Revaltion uses themes we believe might be the Catholic church, or Freemasonry America. Etc? What if the "sense" to correspond imagery is the correct sense even if it might be something different other than the Catholic Church and Freemasonry America? Well I just postulate that because those two are the most familiar themes we have historically. For example, in the reformation it was well hightened to see the book of Revalation implying the Catholic Church and Pope as antichrist. And although there might be themes of Catholicism to share in part with a future false prophet, what seems to be something I don't recall coming across before is the sense of first cause in interpretation that might very easily be overlooked. The very essence of a timeframe arising where memeology would be so picturesque. Vivid. And maybe even larger than life real and in our faces...and it meme something...lol. I mean, mean something.

Ok, so, yeah I know. I'll go now...lol. Blessigns.

I'm a little twitchy when I see Pepe and the Q memes popping up again. Pepe was a popular way to indicate support for Q.

I'm not surprised that Elon is showing support. I've been expecting a return of Pepe and the Q. I think the Q theme stuff will start to pop up more and more. Like last time- this next term for Trump I expect unwary Christians to get sucked in by Q all over again. Elon is a very mixed blessing- some good, some not so good, some outright bad stuff.

I understood and sympathized with the idea of popular uprising against the leftist lunocracy. But just because Q agreed with a lot of the things we thought important, Q was NOT a good addition on the right. Q was also instrumental in trying to make the Jan 6 thing into a real blood bath and other really bad ideas. I started seeing Q as the globalist vision on the Right wing of Politics. A way to shape the right wing into something demonic, but with enough "christian" stuff that it was palatable for a lot of Christians who weren't able to dig deep.

I quickly became aware that Q stuff was associated with antisemitism, and in a long forgotten post I wrote back on another forum around the fall of 2019- Q was using some ancient stuff from the Mithras cult. I found a meme of Jesus wearing a MAGA hat with Pepe in the picture and the occult Tree of Life symbol nearby. It was quickly taken down within a year, but it was illustrating where Q was going with the unwary Christians. The image put Jesus down, and made Him a "servant" of the MAGA culture, of Pepe and mixed in the occult.

In short Q was showing all the signs of a quasi "christian" cult with Dominionism, antisemitism, Mithras ideology, that put down Christ and was infiltrating the Christian groups and the Right wing political groups.

Reminded me a lot of the neo Nazi groups hanging out in Idaho who had members living in Prince George BC, Christian Identity I think they were called. They ran parallel to Reconstruction-ism, and Dominion-ism and hated Jews. I got to know them more than I wanted because some of them were part of the large homeschooling group that I was part of at that time in the mid 90s. Douglas Wilson and his gang were closely tied. A lot of the same people in both.

I wish I could dig up my old post because I was able to draw straight lines, connections between occult stuff, anti Semitic stuff and the way Q was mixing it all into MAGA culture.

I'm just digging it up in my long forgotten files in my brain.

Watch out for Pepe. He's no good.

I remember when Q anon was huge during Covid. I had clients mixed up in that. The videos I had seen supposedly by Q were definitely occultic.

Thanks Margery. I appreciate your feedback. Well it would be interesting to see your post if you find it. Always interested in surrounding perspective. It might be helpful to note here that i might weigh in from time to time on some themes with Elon or Trump etc. Keeping in mind a respectful and honorable distance from my own sense toward the Trumpster and all. I'm fully prepared for bozo things going off the deep end with Trump, just in case...because that cat is a full on total mixed bag of somethin So yeah if Trump gets too wanky, glad to have you guys around to pick up the pieces of the mess within head And i don't say any of this lightly. Even though I have a different eschatological schematic, I am (and have been for years) ready to abandon it with a block party. And i will have a lot of fun making fun of myself because i've been wanting to do quite a bit more of that lately. lol. So yeah, I just feel pretty comfortable with some themes outside the epicenter of my view because when something comes along loud enough to kind of stand on its own and provide context into something that still may be very different than my view, it's kind of therapeutic for me. And who knows maybe someone else on the forum has a better direction for it. Or some helpful sav to keep rhetorical hernia from falling out all over the floor or something...lol.

But yeah on the real, I try to look at themes that might have interesting hues of their own outside of pop culture views. Before there was Q there was Pepe. So although a lot of people see Q in that. I see more like just a symbol for alternative culture outside the globalist beltway. However, i would see it interesting how Q esque Pepe has become. If i had to guess, I'm pretty sure Elon was performing as Q on 8 chan. There are a lot of similarities. So at the end of the day it could be just one rich kid living out a superhero dream taking the world on a ride with him. Feeling its his world, and we just kind of live in it. lol. So there is that. But i try not to focus too much on Q themes because my views are pretty out their on their own. Adding Q to it will I'm sure land me in a straight jacket.

But i would say in theory, because i have looked into Q before, I don't get the same feel of antisemitism from it. Well there is this whole Qanon culture on top of the thing so it could come out to be made to look like a lot of things. On one hand I am glad that churches and pastors, even like JD, warn against Q. Because it did give quite a few Christians quite a bit of cool aide. The factor for me in Q is why the attraction to Catholicism? I noticed quite a bit of that. The church militant? Maybe why its such a craze kind of for NAR with dominionism and the 7 mountain mandate thing.

Outside of Q and Trump and themes that are too familiar or earthy, i try to look outside the neighborhood. Like the world we live in today is a mission field. So what I'm thinking is kind of like what would a loving God of the universe do to get the attention of so many diverse random views we have today? I try and see it like more from His heart perspective rather than where something might be coming from so much. Like for example, when i looked into Parable Videos on Is America a Christian Nation on youtuube, i was pretty shocked what i found. Because the insider view on that video is focused on America as pretty much the great satan and Freemasonry empire leading us all to deception. So I went into kind of trusting its takes. But I studied it for 40 hours doing my own research to see if its conclusions were sound. And boy oh boy was I surprised. Not that they were right. But that they missed so very much. I learned things about America i never knew to ask in all of that. And there is like a ton of amazing anomalies that go with America that blew me away. But not because of Freemasonry. But more like just raw elements to the making of America that opened my eyes to a whole host of what seemed to be far more intriguing details. But yeah if i did not do that, Parable makes a very convincing argument. And i am aware there are a lot of people on those pages.

At the end of the day though i could agree with 1 thing the video said: America is not a Christian Nation. That i agreed with. But for entirely different reasons. So like if God were condescending to various countries and people groups and belief systems, i just think like more upon how He might provide context for them. Well, thinking He might if we are so close to the rapture. Along these lines, Pastor JD said something that I really liked. He was really excited one Sunday about a member of his church and how he witnessed. Sometimes we don't always get the chance to give the full gospel. And this friend of JD's was just trying to bring people he met, what he called: One Step Closer to Christ. And it was a great presentation JD had that day. So it caused me to wonder how God might be doing that too though.

When we think of God drawing people we think of His Spirit and the Word and believers. Amen. I believe this is the primary way. And certainly the only way to salvation. But it did start me thinking like if there were things God might be doing in addition. Like those who would never step foot in a church or read a bible. Ultimately it would be His spirit that draws unto salvation. But like for example, for those stubborn types, thinking the world ends soon because of climate change at least permits some to be thinking about their own temporality. Believing that won't save them. But if they think that deception is real, and contemplate their own temporal state, well, it could lead some to start looking into other areas. And might be like a conditioning time prepping for a believer to walk into their lives at the right moment kind of thing. What I am not saying with that is that climate change agenda came from God. Nope. Not saying that. What I might see is how God might make use of the things bad players use to confuse people for their own purposes. So like in the case of climate change, the social artifact for me in it would be this: God allowed globalists to thrust fake weather concerns on the world in large order. So enough people generally in the world will believe that climate change deception. But what is a tool of deception in the hands of globalist can be a way in which God could counter bunk themes with what in those bunk themes might be helpful for mankind in general to consider. And that might be using stupid juice (climate change) to help people consider what things might go with what to believe now if this world we understand historically ends. And in that way His Spirit then might furthur draw as humility might set in, kind of thing.

So when i think of Q i think of it in silhouette fashion. I would not think it have much value in seeing how the mind of Q works because it started off with disinfo. And it kind of maintained that motif all along the way. You mentioned January 6th. I am familiar with Q posts but i don't recall seeing it as an antagonist to that event. There were a lot of times I set out to disprove Q. Which to me is an exercise in futility because a large percentage of Q is disinfo anyway...lol. In that experience what I tended to notice with those that would disprove Q is that its one of those things really based upon how you look at it. I'm not here to advocate for Q. But up till recently, for me, the jury was out. But with Elon's new Q like moves, testing the hypothesis that Elon is Q actually makes a huge amount of sense. It may not be accurate. But he does fit it on quite a few levels. Then the question would be, why? lol.

Ok so well i really appreciate your thoughtful reply. And consideration. It is just that for me, whatever Q is I guess we will either find out or we wont. But in God's sovereignty, I can somewhat understand why a thing like Q might exist in our day. But my focus on how we might be fitting into end times generally goes in this order:

1) What is God doing in all of this. Or in what way is it permissible.
2) Does the earmarks of Trump having made Jerusalem and Golan Heights officially Israeli territory and returning have more to do with Israel?
3) How peripheral things like government activity, geographical shifts, social media trends, church trends, and Q and/or Q culture might be some form of factor in God's providence

If Q is anything beyond a psyop or playtoy for a rich kid, for me, it would have to suggest quite a bit more for me to see if it actually has any providential currency. At the moment a genuine guess perhaps would be that perhaps it is potentially some sort of social artifact. More than a sign of our era. I guess more like its value in globalist counterculture. On that note, what, to me, looks like is happening (in general) is likely a convergence of ideologies where as things increase with heat, everyone sees confirmation in it of their own eschatological preferences. And that in and of itself, to me, is quite a social artifact of sorts.

. . . . .

So here's my ending lol...for those who might have stuck with all that this far. In theory it would make a lot of sense for Trump, Elon, and Vivek to give such over the top pushback regarding H1-B visas. Because as Jimmy Dore has noticed, if Elon just admitted there were problems with the visas to begin with (which he finally did), we would not have had to go through all the online banter. But there is a hypothesis where that is potentially the point. How to make the issue viral so that America expresses sincere care regarding it.. And it become an "of the people" issue more than a mandate of a political movement agreeing it needs fixing. That conversation would have been dead in the water without controversy. And although this view to see H1-B visas has flaws, of all the choices on the table, it would seem (per perhaps Occam's Razor--The simplest explanation is often the best) that maybe keys to understanding grander national and global themes might be assisted best by getting a sense of what is occuring in at the micro level in relation. And as jug headed or pie in the sky even as it might appear to be, how to make a viral moment is something our generation has been very privy to. One staple one being: Stir up a public drama to get traction.

If this hypothesis is true, it would mean perhaps an offering to the public to want to be involved in making change to visas be something that came from the people. Not Trump. Not Elon. And not Vivek. Just, us. We the people. I guess we will see. Blessings.
