In August 2018, reporters at [[leftist]] rags like ''[[The New York Times]]'' and other publications received word Elon Musk was relying on [[Jeffrey Epstein]] to advise him on whom to consider hiring as board chair or chief executive. Editors at the ''Times'' sent business columnist James Stewart to talk to Epstein. "I wondered why would Musk, if this is true, be using a registered sex offender to recruit new members to the board," Stewart told The Kicker, a podcast from the Columbia Journalism Review. Stewart wrote that Epstein said, "[[Pedophilia|criminalizing sex with [barely] teenage girls]] was a cultural aberration and that at times in history it was perfectly acceptable."<ref>https://nytimes.com/2019/08/12/business/jeffrey-epstein-interview.html</ref><ref>https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2019/08/12/epstein-called-criminalizing-sex-with-teen-girls-a-cultural-aberration/amp/</ref> However, not only the victims he was talking about, when they weren't prepuscent children,<ref>https://inews.com.uk/news/world/ghislaine-maxwell-trial-jeffrey-epstein-decorated-home-photos-prepubescent-girls-1333780</ref> were barely teenagers pretty under the average age of consent in US and North America, but accuser Virginia Robert Giuffre revealed that Epstein kept her and other girls on extreme diets to keep them looking still "prebubescent" so to abuse them.<ref>https://nytimes.com/2019/08/12/business/jeffrey-epstein-interview.html</ref><ref>https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2019/08/12/epstein-called-criminalizing-sex-with-teen-girls-a-cultural-aberration/amp/</ref><ref>https://www.npr.org/sections/publisheditor/2019/07/15/741965493/women-girls-children-reporting-on-epstein-kelly-charges</ref><ref>https://nypost.com/2019/07/08/jeffrey-epstein-accuser-i-was-14-years-old-and-still-in-braces-when-abuse-began/</ref><ref>https://newzandar.com/news/jeffrey-epstein-kept-girls-on-extreme-diets-to-keep-them-looking-prepubescent-accuser/</ref>
Despite being a proponent of freedom of speech online, Musk has tweeted support for the [[Chinese Communist Party]] and has even published articles in a magazine run by China's internet censorship agency.[https://www.insider.com/elon-musk-marvels-at-chinas-economic-prosperity-communist-party-anniversary-2021-7][https://www.theverge.com/2022/8/13/23304250/elon-musk-pitch-magazine-china-cyberspace-cac-censorship-agency-tesla-spacex-neuralink]
After lending aid to [[Ukrainian Nazis]] in early 2022, Musk withdrew his support in October amidst much criticism and controversy.<ref>https://youtu.be/7_so5paN1qE</ref>
