Elon Musk says he 'got carried away' with politics in Economist interview
Elon Musk is responsible for killing 100,000s of people in Africa. Instead of taking responsibility for his actions, he refuses to acknowledge verifiable facts. He can deny he’s a mass murderer all he wants, but history will rank him amongst the worst human beings to ever walk the earth.
Let’s Be Frank3Quite possibly? There is absolutely no doubt he is one of the worst humans ever. In fact, categorizing musk as “human” is a stretch.
yourazneighbor.bsky.social3This is Ayn Rand Objectivism in action. Blech.
Maggimay682Why didn’t she ask him how much money HE gives to ANY organization? The answer? He said it more than once in this interview: “Zero!”
TinyBabyPeople1If we had any real justice he’d be dancing on the under side of a bridge à la 1945 Benito.
Notorious BRT1Jesus, this fucking incurious asshole is killing thousands of people just to sniff his own farts.
darkmatterguy.bsky.social1Just a thought. Perhaps as a child of apartheid he doesn't consider brown people as humans? Once you dehumanize a group of people there is no limit to the horror you can inflict.
The Economist interview of Elon Musk is astounding in all the ways you'd expect. Musk is unapologetic, combative and unwilling to accept or consider facts stated by the Editor in Chief who interviews him including about her own country. www.economist.com/leaders/2026...
Lora Kolodny66Here's a Guardian story about some of this - www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
martin_fff19from the first paragraphs, so much assumption bullshit, he would never do anything to render his "wealth" and power moot..
barbaricus.bsky.social19The guy did a nazi salute on national television and was clearly intoxicated while in White House. Why would Economist - the only magazine I am subscribed to - do this, it is a mystery to me. If we as a society did not learn yet that those activities just provide him a platform, we are doomed.
SpryOldLorax13Everyone should be afraid of him. He should be locked away in permanent solitary confinement and all his assets seized and nationalized. He is unabashedly a monster.
🇬🇾🗽Sydette The Dreaded Gorgon🗽🇬🇾13I’m gonna scale a tower and start screaming “I told you so” it’ll be for 15 minutes and then I need to go lol for work but I will !
Chris Charlton7Kinda hilarious the article says he has 240m on Twitter, it's infested with bots
e.w. niedermeyer521this interview, along with Musk's sudden and mysterious "illness" on yesterday's Tesla earnings call, have my spidey senses tingling
suzette sommer9Musk is an asshole. Unfortunately he has enormous opportunities to do massive damage & has already demonstrated his willingness to hurt innocent people and the USA with no regrets. #BigShitList
bmaz7The answer is yes, Musk is a dangerous asshole.
UK Prime Minister4You can hear the sound of the penny finally dropping for The Economist from Mars.
Musk openly espousing his hatred of Muslims here. Nothing really subtle or nuanced about it. youtu.be/TvSfleiFNwI?...
David Kuhne9I’m against rape and murder says the guy in the Epstein files
andreamartinatx.bsky.social6I wish reporters would ask what, specifically, in the Muslim faith he is referencing There are extremists/radicals in every religion (see Christian Nationalist) that use their religion as a weapon But most people that believe in a religion are not radical Freedom of religion is not antithetical
phoenixarise.bsky.social5White South Africans of his generation generally fail to understand the term 'racist'.
FilmAlicia5He’s against people coming here with “antithetical views” but is fine with openly espousing Nazism and the great replacement theory? And he has had a meltdown for weeks because a gorgeous Black woman was cast as Helen in a fictional epic film? Sure, Jan.
solecito25.bsky.social4The old ‘I’m not racist, but … ‘ trope.
Ms Hart4so Hindus are fine but no Muslims, got it
Not a great interview overall, but this clip is just devastating Elon says Britain is headed towards civil war, the interviewer asks Elon when he was last in the UK, he says years ago, and then Elon accuses the interviewer, **who lives in London**, of living a cloistered life youtu.be/QTGCSYn0piw
Joey Politano🏳️🌈156Elon’s “I’m not far right I’m a normal guy from 15 years ago” shtick is extra ridiculous in the UK context because he’s not, like, advocating for a return of the Cameron Tories but telling people to vote for the nationalist right wing offshoot of the nationalist right wing offshoot of the Tories
mossybadger.bsky.social3He's appalling for many reasons, but this clip really emphasizes that he is first and foremost appallingly dumb. He comes across like a dim child, expecting mom to applaud because he successfully picked his nose.
Beau1He’s not racist because he has 4 children that he doesn’t see with a mixed race person. Take that.
www.mediaite.com/media/news/n... #USD #PB Look who’s triggered Elon does not like being called a supporter of right wing lunatics even though he fully supports right wing lunatics Sorry Elon. The truth hurts. Truth: Elon Musk is the largest supporter of right wing racist worldwide. Full stop
Friskiedgrrl 🏳️🌈 💙🍁 🌊🇨🇦 🇺🇦7FFS Elon, you are a supporter of AfD in Germany. They are the 21st century version of Hitler's Nazis.
grantsodiosa.bsky.social4Did I hear it or did I imagine hearing him say that he is opposed to accepting immigrants with antithetical beliefs??? He said that he believes we should not have allowed him into our country as an immigrant with beliefs that are profoundly anti American Democracy. Amen 🙏 Let it be done.
Green Hombre3He built a clubhouse and media platform for them.
Gee2He's from Alternative Facts City. Caught the pass from Kellyanne Conway and used his (not all his) billions $ to carry the ball as far extreme as possible.
Christopher2Well, he is also a welfare queen. No one mooches as much money from the government as he does.
Rich T 🇨🇦1Garbage human. Like his father and his lunatic mother.
I really need to see a clip of Elon Musk telling the Economist that homegrown tomatoes aren't as good as storebought. None of the clips I've seen include this staggering statement.
darkwebmallcop.bsky.social5You’ve been given free access to this story from The Economist as a gift. You can open the link five times within seven days. After that it will expire. An interview with Elon Musk www.economist.com/insider/the-...
Chameleon Aethos3If he really said that, it would definitively prove he's clinically insane. Plenty of other evidence, but wow...
Linda D2That's proof that even my farming republican family members can see and know the man is insane. Right and left can both agree a store bought tomato looks like a tomato but it will never be a tomato.
Just A Tinker 🟥🍁🟥2I'll have to side with homegrown tomatoes being 𝘸𝘢𝘺 better regardless of what Elon thinks! By planting different varieties of baby tomatoes in our driveway garden, there'll be a harvest 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘺 until November. 😋
GadgetGav🇭🇺🇺🇦🇨🇦2Maybe anyone who is growing tomatoes for him pisses on them before serving them to him
Old Tehanu1Wait till you hear what he said about strawberries.
Elon Musk said he got “carried away” and a “little too involved in politics” during his time leading the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. But he says he stands by the department’s work. Elmo lies. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Mack Butterfield9Musk refused to agree that the work of DOGE, a temporary department tasked with eliminating wasteful spending and fraud, had any negative consequences. He knows. He’s not stupid.
azeke57.bsky.social2"stands by the departments work". What work? About all he did was build the tariff shelf to hold Donnie's money.
artnetworx.bsky.social1“I made the quality of life for every American and millions of other people moderately to significantly worse. My bad.”
Suddenly, as His Empire Crumbles, Elon Musk Admits He Made a Huge Mistake With DOGE futurism.com/future-socie... #ElonMuskAdmits #DOGE
Jonna Woodburn3To refer to him as a “Massive Douche” is much too kind.
Terri Duffy2Must have had a change of heart after this disastrous interview that he did with The Economist. gizmodo.com/elon-musk-ec...
Dog Tired1Admitting his mistake is no reason for us to forgive or let this rascist immigrant off the hook... His kind is the reason democracy and freedoms in the United States are falling by the wayside... Musk should be deported back to South Africa...
