Elon Musk the eccentric inventor and one of the brilliant genius still alive in the world immortalised words that put a middle finger to dictatorial edicts and their disciples during a The New York Times Q&A.
He also swore to globalists and those who try to undermine any individual person and nation states’ sovereignty over their own god given rights and inalienable freedoms.
This is apart from the boring and the over used accusations of anti-Semitism.
Anti-Semitism charges is being used to demonise any person who questions any official narrative being pushed by Israel in its military and occupational force conducts towards Palestinians Arabs.
But aren’t Arabs also Semites? So the actions of the Israelis should also be called Anti-Semitic attacks as they are also attacking other Semitic groups.
Elon Musk’s social media platform, X (formerly Twitter) hosts divergent views from all walks of life even some sections of society labelled as extreme points whether to the far left or far right.
He believes in that ideal, most human beings are rational, good and just people.
They will call out and condemn views that are racists, dictatorial or woke ideologies.
When that principle of free speech absolutism is being attacked Elon Musk pushed back.
This is when big companies like Disney, Apple etc pulled their advertisements from Twitter/X in recent weeks which seems in Musk’s eyes as an attack and a blackmail attempt to compromise on his principle of Free Speech Absolutism.
In order for new inventions to be made which benefit and advance societies, enquiries need to be made against the dogmas of the day.
That is what Elon Musk believes in and he has already explained it.
Advanced societies especially, the United States of America, became the greatest country of the world mainly due to its scientific and industrial advancements made by enquiring minds who challenged the status quo.
These challenges to the status quo delivered us telephone, electricity, assembly line manufacturing which drives down cost of goods and made things affordable to the common man.
