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.

“Besides mocking CNN, Musk came down hard against wokeness, saying it is a virus that is divisive, exclusionary and destructive. The Space X CEO commented that a tendency to become politically correct may be counterproductive, as represented by the emerging “woke culture”. Musk said “wokeness” is a “mind virus” and is “arguably one of the biggest threats to modern civilization.”

“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!

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’...

said, "He’s a transhumanist .."
Yes he also believes in "global warming"
If he believes in liberty he will figure it out.

Would be nice to see Musk become a conservative/libertarian answer to Soros. I can dream, can’t I?

He needs someone to help him with his taxes.
He said he was giving it all the the government. That is where philanthropy comes in. You give it to the charity of your choosing rather then government. That is how Soros and Gates are able to use all their money for evil.

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.

I agree. Humans do create about 0.6 deg C direct heat. Which no one deputes. Though CO2 mostly cools the planet more then in warms. Their whole argument is competently wrong in all accounts. I call this "financed science" vs real science.

Great interview, great guy!

A fearless, dedicated, visionary - with a sense of humor, to boot.
