...the reality appears to be more complex, with the Ivy League-educated 26-year-old having supported sentiments shared by some of the world’s richest men, according to his X profile.

Earlier this year, Mangione shared a post on his X account of another user praising Musk for his “commitment to long-term civilization success.”

It referenced a post by Musk from March this year where he claimed he was “in a battle to the death with the anti-civilizational woke mind virus.”

One of the most recent posts on Mangione’s X’s profile was a repost of a video of Thiel, the right-wing billionaire who introduced JD Vance to Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago in 2021.

Other posts Mangione shared lamented “wokeism” in society, and he also responded to one post that claimed God had been replaced by people “worshipping at the DEI shrine, using made-up pronouns like religious mantras and firing professors for saying men can’t get pregnant.”
