Washington D.C. – June 28, 2025: Tech billionaire Elon Musk has announced the formation of a new political party in the United States, called the “Blindsight Party”, aimed at disrupting traditional two-party politics ahead of the 2024 U.S. presidential election cycle.
Musk revealed the move in a post on X (formerly Twitter), where he has increasingly voiced his dissatisfaction with both the Democratic and Republican parties, citing polarization, inefficiency, and a disconnect from technological progress.
A “Tech-Forward, Common Sense” Party
While limited details were shared, Musk described the Blindsight Party as a “rational, centrist alternative rooted in logic, science, and free expression.” The name “Blindsight,” he claimed, refers to “how society often ignores obvious truths due to ideological blindness.”
“America needs innovation in governance, not just in technology,” Musk wrote.
“It’s time for a party that values facts over fear and progress over politics.”
What We Know So Far
According to sources close to Musk:
- The party will focus on issues such as artificial intelligence regulation, economic modernization, digital rights, and space policy
- It is expected to appeal to younger, tech-savvy voters disillusioned with the status quo
- Musk has not confirmed whether he will run for any political office
The announcement comes amid increased political activism by tech leaders, with Musk frequently criticizing political figures and media institutions via his X platform.
Reactions and Controversy
Political analysts are divided on the impact of Musk’s announcement:
- Some call it a publicity stunt or brand extension
- Others believe it could fracture voter bases, particularly among libertarians, independents, and moderates
- Critics warn it may amplify misinformation or blur the lines between business influence and governance
Already, hashtags like #BlindsightParty and #ElonForPresident have trended on social media, fueling speculation about Musk’s political ambitions.
