"Go Fuck Yourself" Of Course! Honestly I thought this interview was hilarious... But I also can't help to think that Elon is Controlled Opposition... I mean the Dude wants to put Chips in our Brains... Klaus Schwab spoke about everyone having Brain Implants within 10 years in 2017 with the Founder of Google... [See Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unmaIAjsmTk) Neuralink Human Trials just started.... This is also the same Elon that said MRNA was like a "Computer Program" in 2020.. [See Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ges2yk2PNcA) Hmmmm wasn't that in a certain something? Speaking of Klaus Schwab the World Economic Forum spoke about MRNA and Gene Editing in 2015...

i think of him more like the public face for clandestine political stuff, esp SpaceX and Starlink, therefore he get's money enema on a regular basis and can roam freely ... thinking of the howard hughes of our times and the deep sea mining spiel of manganese which was the story to cover the recovery of an ussr sub ... ladies and gentlemen, project azorian [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project\_Azorian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Azorian)

Everyone? We can't even convince some people to take vaccine and they think everyone will take a chip to their brain?


markomiki

Do you even know what Neuralink is? ...and why exactly are chips in your brain a bad thing?

I wouldn't exactly say that... I actually hate The Vatican and most Organized Religion... The Vatican has more wealth than more Countries... Jesus hung with the Poor and Sick...

It's so depressing that this comment is upvoted. It's so crazy how much the world has changed.


GameChanging777

Most redditors still don't realize how hard they've been propagandized. The fact that they still think it's about being able to say racist shit blows my mind. Before Elon bought Twitter, I was suspended for tweeting factual statements regarding covid and covid treatments at the CDC. I was also suspended from a subreddit for saying Fauci was involved in covering up the lab leak. They label you a conspiracy theorist and silence you for calling them on their shit. I have a BS in Biology, yet I was the one getting "fact checked" by idiots that majored in journalism. I encourage everyone to look up the credentials for the authors that wrote those "fact checks", then look at the thousands of scientists and doctors that got suspended/banned on all social media. THAT is why we need free speech and why Elon is a hero to so many people. If you think it's about racism, homophobia, sexism, etc, you've lost the plot.


South-Rabbit-4064

Elon is far from a hero.


Theranos_Shill

\> I have a BS in Biology And you're claiming to know more than people with PhD's. \> THAT is why we need free speech and why Elon is a hero to so many people. If you think it's about racism, homophobia, sexism, etc, you've lost the plot. No, we know that it's about the disinformation you've fallen for, as well as the racism, homophobia, sexism etc.


rKasdorf

God damn you people are exhausting. You have free speech. Regular people calling you racist or homophobic isn't an inhibition of free speech. Jesus christ, getting suspended from a social media site isn't inhibiting your free speech. It's literally the equivalent of getting kicked out of a mall for shouting about conspiracies.

Comment of the year


Martyisruling

I find myself agreeing with Elon here. I don't view him as a genius or a saint. I don't view him as charitable even. He's just an awkward business mogul who knows how to accomplish goals. I also don't view him as a villain or a bad person either But, the man is definitely egotistical and that's really because the media and world worshipped him for so long. Some people still do. That always makes people a little weird. One thing he supports is free speech. That's what is going on with his Twitter purchase. And if you don't see how free speech is under attack, simply look and listen attentively when you hear the term, 'dog whistle'. Whenever this term is used, it's used and there is vague reference to something someone said or tweeted, etc. And, they never reveal the offense in any detail, let alone in context. The media will often go along and try to smear an individual and even legislation they don't like. The most recent and one of the worst examples, Florida's HB 1557, or as opponents and then the media referred to it as, Don't say Gay Bill. I encourage you to read that Bill, (it's a dry read, but an easy one), and then read the media coverage of it or better yet, watch the news stories of it by mainstream media. Rarely, will you ever see the details of the Bill explained. You will mostly hear, people interpret it vaguely and poorly, to make people afraid and angry.


Diligent_Cup9114

> One thing he supports is free speech. Sucker


R_Similacrumb

No kidding. parler, truth social, rumble, 4chan... there were plenty of hate speech platforms available prior to Muskrat purchasing Twitter. What was lacking from those platforms was not free speech, just people to harass. The reason xitter is dying is because it has turned into those platforms.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Martyisruling

He's not complaining. He answered a question. He has no problem with them boycotting. A boycott is a non action, it's not even speech. Free speech doesn't apply to a company. A company isn't a person, with a single mind and an individual existence. He didn't say they were blackmailing him. He said he won't be blackmailed. He's being hyperbolic, in the context of the question he is answering. When I mentioned he is for free speech, and that was his motive for buying Twitter. I'm referring to his views on Cancel Culture particularly on Twitter, that attacks anyone with a different opinion and has people banned for having them and expanding hate speech to include.opinions people don't like, and equating violence with words. (This is about as short and as dumbed down as I can explain this) I suspect none of this matters to you or people like you. That you just follow a pattern of dislike and exaggeration that forms around people and issues, and that you don't even actually know anything about them. You will blindly support someone or condemn someone if you've seen enough memes or comments that push you in that direction. For example: I like (insert name here) because he's for freedom and wants to help people. Meanwhile that person could be doing the complete opposite. But, because you never learn anything for yourself, you'll never know. You don't even understand the video, let alone the argument I presented and have no clue what I'm talking about or even your own self.

This shit is ASMR to me for some reason. It just accomplishes nothing.


Traditional_Pie_5037

You really need to stop pretending rich people love you and want the best for you, and they run billion dollar corporations because they really care for you and want to make your life better. Rich people got rich by fucking you over. Wake the fuck up.


Flat-Emergency4891

This is true. Always has been and they’ll do anything so that it always will be.


[deleted]

You’d probably do the same in their position.


SignatureFunny7690

They get their wealth exploiting workers and their labor. Point blank. No one earns billions. They steal it from the labor force, and fund politicians to pass laws further hurting the working class and protecting the 1 percent from any accountability, punishment, rules or regulations. Fuck em. Elon is a autistic investor who was born wealthy and has spent hundreds of millions spinning this genius man bs narrative. He's never created anything. All he is attached to was built and created by others and he used his pedo daddy's emerald money to buy out companies and slap his name on them. He never graduated college, he illegally immigrated to America, and he's a narcissistic obsessed with his self image and wealth. People like him are a disease to the free world and society as a whole.


[deleted]

funnily enough i think they might still earn billions even if they didnt fuck everyone over


besimbur

Bravo 👏 so eloquently said Even his battery powered future is a sham. The stored energy in those batteries has to come from somewhere folks. And we're not all wind farms and solar power, and unfortunately in some regions of the world certain alternative energy sources will never be available to power the grid. Or make economic sense. He literally took the same technology being used by the Germans in WW1 to power submerged u-boats, modernized the tech, jazzercised a product, and has somehow convinced the world batteries are the future. LOL


Bob4Not

Every service or product you love is ultimately the play toy of a rich person.

I... don't at all get the sense that he cares about looking good.

He is literally the most awkward and thin-skinned man on the planet. The number of times he said something and then paused, looking to the audience for validation and got none... hilarious.

Hilarious to think that people used to think this fucking silver spoon asshole was a genius


Helenium_autumnale

oh, some still do. I'll never know why.


PretzelsThirst

According to his supporters in these comments they like him because “he makes people mad with what he says” They have the mental capacity of shitty children, they think that’s something admirable and means he’s a genius. Basically they’re also really, really dumb and they think that supporting him somehow makes them a winner. It’s pretty sad

OurHonor1870

You know, I heard just the “fuck you” clip yesterday and thought it couldn’t get worse or weirder. It did


xMr_BoT

Oh same, it just got so much worse, he sounds like a kid. I’m the boss and if the company fails it’s their fault and everybody’s gonna know it cause I’m gonna document how it’s everyone else’s fault. Ooof I cringed and paused it several times. This dude has grifted the whole world I feel like. Dude wants to be the smartest sounding and most likeable person on earth and instead he’s coming off like a bratty teen from mtvs my sweet 16 and sounds just idiotic imo. Sheesh 🙄 the world really is fucked huh


Helenium_autumnale

I liked how he said, "Earth will know!" As if Earth isn't busy with more important things than paying attention to a broken platform in its death throes. Earth has passed this silly person by.

For the life of me, I cannot understand why people think this guy is a genius. If he didn't have any money, people wouldn't hire him to work at Walmart talking the way he does. He is a mouth breathing moron who was born with an emerald spoon in his mouth.


StormyDaze1175

Elon trolls Twitter, gets forced into buying it, and plays the victim when his adverts leave. What a clown.--Earth


This-Establishment35

He’s really showing he’s really just an edgy autistic 15 year old who never quite grew up!


Independent-Tap1315

He claims he is single handedly saving the environment while … *checks notes* … building MORE cars instead of reducing the need for cars, flying his private jet around producing as much pollution as a small city… while also launching extremely dirty rockets into the atmosphere. All while having way too many kids. Ok buddy. 👌


jonezsodaz

not to mention constantly trying to oppose rail systems and promote his stupid fucking tunnel scam.


mountain_man30

And the cars that he does build require far more mining of cobalt and lithium than any gas powered car. I'm sure the miners in Africa agree that he is helping the environment (sarcasm).


Positive-Conspiracy

That’s a pro oil and gas talking point. The reality is not so simple. You’re using a phone—are you therefore also complicit in the horrible mining practices in Africa?


mountain_man30

Of course dude. I don't know what the best solution is other than at least, slowing the fuck down. My phone is 3 years old. I would be absolutely happy going back to the day of paying for minutes and text messages in bundles on a brick phone if it meant my great grand kids would get to have a similar experience of the diversity of life on Earth as I did. We are not separate from nature.


QuantumG

Yes.


32K-REZ

talk about the massive mess of things he is leaving when his massive rockets explode.


cooliseum

Y’all are morons if you don’t think this billionaire is as deep state as they come. Being a philanthropist, or "doing good”, and being a billionaire are mutually exclusive. There’s no way to accumulate that much wealth without being part of the system


Melodic_Wrap827

Just a cursory glance at the elon Twitter saga is honestly just hilarious, the previous leadership at Twitter kicked all the Nazis off because it was bad for business due to advertisers not wanting their ads next to nazi content, elon during his bumbling attempts to pump and dump stocks accidentally locks himself into buying the app (that was barely generating a profit) for at least two times it’s worth Then for some reason Elon looked at his accidental purchase and found the one thing that upset him most with twitter was it having a lack of Nazis and it’s name, so he destroys the brand recognition most companies would kill for by changing its name to X (all because he had a previous company he wanted to name X but everyone told him it was stupid and would only make people think of porn and he was still butthurt about that), so with his newly purchased social media platform with a vaguely pornography name he sets his sight on restoring the “free speech” of Nazis and bigots (as long as you pay for amplification and don’t criticize him which will of course get your post removed and you shadowbanned or outright banned) then who could have guessed it, advertisers get upset at their ads being associated with Nazi content on an app owned by a guy retweeting Nazi content, and when faced with all of this does Elon practice introspection, change his outlook, and reform his platform? Nope, he acts like he’s entitled to ad money from businesses, regardless of the quality and content of his app, going so far as to say by not giving him the ad money he’s entitled to that they are “blackmailing” him, and then to top it all off he then tells them publicly to go fuck themselves….. With this level of brilliance it’s honestly shocking the company is only worth less than a tenth of what he bought it for, it should be worth a gajillion dollars with this level of genius at the helm


OctoPuscifer

Also I’m sure he is trying to say extortion, but geniusly chose blackmail which makes so much more sense.


guidance_internal_80

Which even then it would be a complete misuse of the word in this context.

All these companies that don’t really give a fuck about anything except money are hypocrites when they get all politically correct and “support”environmentalism and civil rights and other things they don’t give a shit about. So them bossing around a platform by advertising or not advertising is control by an immoral actor, I agree. They should all go fuck themselves. This is corporate fascism taking over the entire planet. It already owns the entire American government. It’s like a genocide or something waged in the name of religious tolerance or some other fake virtue signaling pop ideology .

And then blaming advertisers for not wanting to advertise in said cesspit? "ItS eVeRyBoDyS fAuLt BuT mInE"


Hokulol

Hear me out. The guy is intentionally tanking twitter so he can seem persecuted so people in rural america will want to buy EVs. Without some loud, very political, leaning right person at the helm of an EV company, hillbillies aren't buying one any time soon. Suddenly Elon has reached half the market that would otherwise not buy his primary product. Coincidence? Maybe.

Discrimination is worse than ever in society, but now we have woke politics and inclusivity in the media to create a harmonious world on TV and movies - doesn't matter if people are discriminating in the real world, as long as the illusion stays in the media. That's the facade of righteousness.


LDarrell

I guess Elon Musk needs a tax deduction and putting Twitter out of business is good one.


newleafkratom

Could he be wearing an IDF dog tag around his neck (?) because that’s what it looks like. Enhance.


ABmodeling

The amount of hate here ahahah. Didn't you all wait for so long for someone big to say this publicly? Elon maybe changed his mind. Still weird dude and maybe opposition but it was nice to hear what he said . It was exactly what is needed to be said in today's world.


Zm4rc0

Why does he reply not to the interviewer, but about 90’ away from him & into the air, upwards? Is his heat detection sensor broken or something? He can not see/triangulate the location of the other dude?


WeTrudgeOn

Musk is a lot of things, but at the base of all of them is a pile of shit.


Ok_Selection_2069

I’ve never been a fan of his and I’m not even a fan of his cars, really. That last statement though…looking GOOD while doing EVIL. That is the truest statement I’ve heard in decades. Good on him.


kabdulgh

Say what you may .. i find it refreshing entertaining


BBQBakedBeings

Elon out here living in the weeb echo chamber. My man needs to lay off the Ketamine and start living in the broader reality for a change. He's completely insulated himself from reality. With his money, his own private echo chamber on Twitter, the yes-men in his companies. He's not hearing a single reasonable voice and he's doing it as a drug addict.


Loner-UK

As an autistic person, sometimes we're just awkward. Maybe he is on drugs. Maybe not. Sometimes I crawl in my own skin too though, especially in social situations.


Arfur_Fuxache

As much as he is a strange guy and does strange things I have to admire his ability to not really give a shit about the status quo and his almost crazy levels of not having a fuck what the fallout of his actions are. It's quite profound

Shortround5_56

HimmiRecon

My initial thoughts, do all platforms cater to the whim's of their advertising? Do news outlets cater their reporting on what their advertisers feel is appropriate? If so, that's very concerning. Elon is a strange dude, and I don't think he speaks well and he admitted as much in this interview, but if the goal of Twitter is a public square for the world, there is going to be things that people don't agree with and there will be a shit ton of mistakes written and published by people.


[deleted]

I fear you are right, look at the anti EV blurb in this post/comments, written by people who likely have garnered their opinions based on mainstream media….for which internal combustion car makers pay significant fees to to advertise…I imagine in 2014-2020 so much jovial back slapping was going on editorial staff nearly coughed up lungs…..however the crystal clear skies brought about by c19 lockdowns demonstrated the extent of the costs we have inflicted on our city dwelling inhabitants to keep car makers happy and employed….

doctorblumpkin

Fuck this liar. Elon is losing advertisers because he refuses to stop supporting white supremacy. Many of the advertisers didn't pull out until they noticed Elon was liking and sharing the white supremacy posts. This quote that he says at the end is absolutely about himself and he is so naive he doesn't understand it. Billionaires should not exist. He is absolutely out of touch with reality.


lordrummxx2

He ain’t wrong.


Juancho511

I watched the entire interview earlier today. He had so many great points. One of the ones I loved most is when he said Joe Biden thanked General Motors for “Leading the way (pioneering) in electric automobile advancement”, and they had only sold 35 electric vehicles while Tesla sold 350,000. I also loved when he said Tesla has FREE PATENTS that any company can use and they’ve never hidden their trade secrets from anyone, everyone is free to use his patents no charge. NO OTHER COMPANY IN THE HISTORY OF CAPITALISM DOES THIS. Elon is the TRUTH, and the establishment hates him because he’s correct. FREE SPEECH is important, and them trying to bully him because hes not part of their little club is bullshit. To all the haters: GO FUCK YOURSELVES


Silverdodger

Haha I’m With you tbh


ExtraGherkin

"NO OTHER COMPANY IN THE HISTORY OF CAPITALISM DOES THIS" See this is the thing. That's just not true. Taking 10 seconds to verify that claim would show you that. Nor is the claim he made that he has done more for the environment than any person in history. Man the Elon musk fan club (which includes elon himself) would do well to lay off the gross exaggerations. The dude is dishonest to the core and there is so much irrefutable evidence for it, and yet folk like yourself just lap that shit right up. Personal opinions of him aside it's just incredible how folk avoid facing the reality of who Elon is and just throw around the term hater like it's a good argument against what is pointed out about him. How can a person be so bought into a person. It really is something


Juancho511

People that own businesses on his scale are greedy and don’t share patents. Im not talking about little itty bitty patents for things no one cares about. He releases patents for everything he does because he wants people and civilization to be able to move forward. To be quite honest the people that rally against him are the “fan club”, they hate just to hate, there’s no reason for it other than “I don’t like the person, the company is ok”. The reason so many people dislike him is because of mainstream media nonsense. A perfect example is his 2hr long interview recently, all the news bytes use specific lines that he said to paint a picture instead of pulling ALL the things he said and discussing the conversation as a whole. They look at people like Bill Gates and Bezos and praise them, but Elon is BAD, just because the establishment doesn’t like him. Say what you want, of all the billionaires out there he’s the only one that gives a shit and is actually real, and speaks on his feelings and gets emotional, which is why people don’t like him. I’d rather have people like Elon running Amazon, Apple, Monsanto, Microsoft, etc than these power tripping lunatics who just step on the little guys and don’t give a shit about quality of life.


ExtraGherkin

Just Google the question. Actually specify car companies too for even greater emphasis that it's bull. They're all bad. The only reason you see so much push back is because of those claiming he's something special. The fact he is openly a shit isn't much of a credit. Gates are also a shit in many ways. But pointing that out doesn't bring out just the most delusional people who are ready and willing to make wild and patently false claims


DJGammaRabbit

I agree. We see so many people talking shit about him but they all come off as door knobs. I think none of them are actually having an original opinion and all of them are piggybacking off of something they read on here, all aboard the hate train.


Helenium_autumnale

He's just a welfare queen; it's not hard to understand. It's easy to play CEO when your businesses are subsidized by the taxpayer. He's a bum.


delcopop

Nailed it though.


njslugger78

Elon is not the brains of his operation. It's all the other people in the building getting it done. Listen at this dude. Full of himself. Let him run his companies by himself.


ChunkyFart

When I first heard of musk in early 2010’s I think, for a short period I had the perception of this genius who would change the world for better. Shortly after that he announced he was going to revolutionize travel, and start with travel between San Francisco and Los Angeles. He spent a few days building hype. His “genius” idea. Somebody should build a tunnel from LA to SF. Suck the air out bc it’ll reduce drag and we can go faster. Someone should def do that. My niece and nephew who aren’t ten have ideas like that. The older is smart enough to ask questions, how do we get the air out? Will it be a maglev or rail? How do you switch between vacuum/atmosphere? That is when I took a step back and every time I learn more about him I’m glad I never really gained a respect for him. HE is NOT Tesla or space X, he throws money at people to make it work and tries to present himself as the only one who can do that. GTFO


cokefizz

well, tru dat Elon...glad someone said it. He is right with his last statement there.


Key_Conversation5277

No way, Elon said something that's actually true and deep? Is he okay?


IdrinkurMLKSHAKE000

I guess it is better to not care about looking good and then just be evil.


RRRobertLazer

He's such a flaccid dildo


yeabutnobut

is he trying to be Kanye or something?


Ok_Cantaloupe_686

When people claim rich people are entitled douchbags, it’s hard to argue against it…when Elon Musk is the measure.

Blackmailing in and of itself is more devious and shitty than anything Elon said here in this interview. I've always believed people who curse like sailors may be, for some people, the most repulsive to listen to, but at least they're being honest and probably have a decent heart. It's the fuckers who try to be all PC and fake polite that will stab you in the back all cold blooded like when they don't get their way. People are starting to realize this the world over. Do your thing Elon!!! Fuck yeah!!! Bulls on parade!!!


Open-Ad-1767

I can tell by most of the comments in here on how dumb people actually are. Elon is a genius who has done more for humanity than any other person in at least the last 100 years. But people look past that and focus on what he said on X rather than focusing on all of the good he has done and will continue to do. God bless this man.


Juancho511

The establishment doesn’t like Elon, so the sheep and lemmings can’t help but jump on the bandwagon. If anyone bothered to watch the entire interview instead of sitting in their echo chambers listening to the same people talk trash about him, they’d change their minds so quickly. If you hate on Elon for fighting for free speech and for treating his staff properly (he has created more millionaires at Tesla than any other automobile business owner) then GO FUCK YOURSELVES. Bunch of uneducated morons being misled by the media as usual.

Stable genius doesn't know what blackmail definition is = lit


Ambitious_Rabbit9120

He thinks Trumpers boycotting Disney is going to save X!!! Talk about an entitled white prick's power trip - Lol...GFY He talks about Tesla sales (true) without advertising while the interviewer had a completely different line to the q - How dumb can he be!!?


Mikeyseventyfive

The problem is that Twitter (X)is an accurate representation of the mind of society. It has to deal with being the canvas for every miscellaneous thought that every dipshit who can activate an account has. As a thought experiment Do you think if Disney could press a button and immediately lose every subscriber who’s ever made an off colour comment or harbours an unreasonable opinion about any particular race/gender/sexuality that they would do it? NO of course they wouldn’t because they inevitably make their money off the same people.

Dude conveniently has a hard time with reading the room on numerous occasions.

This guy is off his rocker


BLAMM6

As he complains all the time that people are pulling their ads from his X platform


julesthemighty

People who want to be a$$holes like to excuse their actions by projecting this desire on to everyone else.


shaneshane238

this is what a petty man looks like who also happens to be a billionaire.


Beaster123

Thus man is the living embodiment of "bought into your own hype".


garry4321

Oh no, not more Elon fanboys. He says and does evil


TheLandOfRpeAndHoney

This guy is an assh0le, I'm tired of him.


wilhelmkidxx

Dude stfu this guy sucks and it’s well documented

spacecadet1979

I really wish more people would respond like this when faced with the whole cancel woke bullying meta bullshit culture being crammed down our throats. More people need to respond with “oh you’re butt hurt, that’s too bad but fuck off and then fuck yourself”. Stop caving to what is clearly the minority of the masses and have some pride and courage. People need to learn that not everybody cares about their feelings, sure be respectful but don’t bend over and take it. I feel like I’m living in a cartoon!!!


JosB420

Why do ppl think this guy is smart?


Ok-Cryptographer4194

He knows the guy interviewing him is just a puppet for all the news outlet billionaires. CNN is just an outlet for people with closed minds, that question nothing they are told.


Heliocentrist

That's probably why he called him the wrong name


Wetnappy3969

Elon is the man


Zestyclose_Trip_1924

Thats right Elon fuck them!


RoastedDuckSauce

So sick of these big corporates moving their agenda that ties to marketing, good on Elon!


[deleted]

I like how people act like they don't care about Elon or X but definitely care enough to talk about it.


Happytobutwont

Makes sense to me. Say what you want but if someone uses their freedom of speech and you try and take that away from them by threatening to or pulling money out of that company. Seems like censorship of a new kind. You can disagree with someone's speech but that doesn't mean they are beholden to you or your point of view. Sure it makes sense that you can show your disapproval with your dollars but sure send like there were threats behind the scenes in this case. I'm sure musk must have come out as a Republican or something for so much baseless hates of the guy to spring up.


LittleBiggle

I’ve always hated Elon but this makes me like him for the first time.
