Cheering On Elon Is Now a Musk !


Last week I went out to lunch with a friend of mine, and during lunch the name Elon Musk came up. Basically, in essence, we agreed that our opinion of Elon Musk has swung to “more favorable,” and furthermore continues to swing in the even more favorable direction. My buddy, let’s call him, Jim, was especially impressed with Musk’s building Tesla from an idea to a car … basically on his own. Jim had just recently finished a book about the Musk/Tesla project and I am now in line for that book. 

My increasingly positive take on Elon Musk has more to do with his steadily increasing display of common sense, which when combined with backbone is tough to beat. Back many months ago, when the Governor of California was attempting to shut down his Tesla plant, Musk, in so many words, said, “screw you, Gavin.” He has subsequently followed through on his threat to move his company’s headquarters to Texas, and now it’s official: Tesla is now a Texas company. The electric automaker announced the move in a filing with the US Securities Exchange Corporation, and on December 1, 2021, Tesla, Inc. relocated its corporate headquarters to Gigafactory Texas.

From Townhall:

During a recent Babylon Bee interview Elon Musk gave his thoughts on woke-ness. “At its heart, wokeness is divisive, exclusionary, and hateful. It basically gives mean people a shield to be mean and cruel, armored in false virtue,” Musk concluded.

As a frequent target of the woke crowd, Musk’s thoughts on the issue are well-put. “Generally I think we should be aiming for, like, a positive society and it should be okay to be humorous,” Musk explained. “Wokeness basically wants to make comedy illegal — I mean Chappelle? What the f***. Try to shut down Chappelle? Come on, man, that’s crazy,” he remarked. “Do we want a humorless society that is simply rife with condemnation and hate basically?”

Talking about Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and her unprovoked attack on Musk, he noted that “she struck first” with her Tweet accusing Musk of being a freeloader, to which he responded with a jab, calling Warren “Senator Karen.”

“I’m literally paying the most tax that any individual in history has ever paid this year, and she doesn’t pay taxes basically at all, and her salary is paid for by the taxpayer,” Musk pointed out. “If you could die by irony, she would be dead,” he added.

Now that great comeback to ditsy Pocahontas … “If you could die by irony, she’d be dead.” … may well turn out to be a classic. Likewise when speaking about classic remarks, Musk’s commented on this Babylon Bee interview that he was probably not perverted enough to be on CNN!
