RED ALERT: this is not a joke. Elon Musk sat down with Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon, EIC Kyle Mann, and Creative Director Ethan Nicolle for an in-depth interview on wokeness, Elizabeth Warren, taxing the rich, the Metaverse, which superhero Elon would be, and how the left is killing comedy.

He seems to be a bona fide genius and a pleasant fellow... a great combination.
He seems to be a bit self-effacing... that is something his super-rich peers seem to totally lack.
Great interview. And it’s with the Bee. Love it.
“Wokeness wants to make comedy illegal. Do we want a humourless society that is simply rife with condemnation, and hate? At its heart, wokeness is divisive, exclusionary, and hateful. It basically gives mean people a shield to be cruel, armoured in false virtue,” Musk said. “
What he said there was brilliant, and so very true.
I think any reasonably intelligent person would agree with Musk on those points. Leftists are not that bright and the media is even less bright.
Love the BB “article” about CNN adding “Are you a creepy pervert?” to their employment applications!
Very Presidential.
Musk’s too smart to be a knee jerk white liberal ‘elite’... (a group that’s made up of people who didn’t do squat to get their money beyond choosing the right grandfather...)
Anyhow, God willing - Musk will join with us and fight the insanity of white liberal ‘elites’... and their violent pets.
“Seems clear Elon Musk is on the side of liberty. Without very rich people we can’t win.”
He’s a transhumanist that wants to put a chip in your brain.
The guy to the left of Musk should have shut up every now and then to allow other interactions. Could have been a great and fun interview - instead much of it was thrown away but focusing on stuff that could have been ‘googled’...

Here is the FULL 90 minute version. The last 30 minutes are very interesting

Would be nice to see Musk become a conservative/libertarian answer to Soros. I can dream, can’t I?
I know lots of otherwise conservative people who believe the Earth is warming. Mostly they think it’s a natural eventuality that man can do little to mitigate. They take personal measures that assuage their own conscience, but don’t feel that top-down government impositions are either warranted, or right, or even helpful.
If it’s a thing of Nature, how is it at all helpful for the government imposing constraints on the public that create even more social and economic friction?
“Since there’s this difficult issue we all face, we should create several related issues for consumers, taxpayers, and entire industries.”
Only leftist tyrants think like that.
There’s an entire swathe of Conservatism that says conservation measures are great — recycling to whatever extent we can, not over-consuming, reducing waste, and all the stuff your folks always hollered at you:
“Shut the lights off when you leave the room!”
“Close the front door — God’s not paying us to heat the whole outdoors!”
“Figure out what you’re after BEFORE you open the ‘fridge!”
Embracing such things is hardly a liberal trait.

Great interview, great guy!
A fearless, dedicated, visionary - with a sense of humor, to boot.
