Since they stepped out together at the Met Gala,nak laman web lucah musician Grimes and Tesla CEO Elon Musk's relationship hasn't had the warmest of receptions.

"He has never prevented them from unionizing," she wrote. "It's quite literally fake news. Trust me, I've investigated this heavily and even visited factories etc."

Boucher also defended her relationship with Musk, with one tweeter @cocteau_twinks asking why she calls herself an "anti-imperialist while dating one of the biggest and most prominent capitalists out there."
"Humans with differing views on economics often hang out," she wrote, after talking about Musk's vision for what is essentially a subway system, and his views on universal basic income, which he backs.

To her credit, at least Boucher is responding to her fans' consternations about her relationship. Not that she thinks it should matter (and look, she's right).
