Elon Musk

"Have you ever wondered why the Wikimedia Foundation wants so much money? It certainly isn’t needed to operate Wikipedia. You can literally fit a copy of the entire text on your phone! So, what’s the money for? Inquiring minds want to know…"

"Instead of knowledge, schools pour poison into the ears of our children"

"It is not clear who has authority for ground links in Gaza, but do we know that no terminal has requested a connection in that area"

"We will have something that is, for the first time smarter than the smartest human. It's hard to say exactly what that moment is, but there will come a point where no job is needed. You can have a job if you wanted to have a job for personal satisfaction. But the AI would be able to do everything. I don't know if that makes people comfortable or uncomfortable. If you wish for a magic genie, that gives you any wish you want, and there's no limit. You don't have those three wish limits nonsense, it's both good and bad. One of the challenges in the future will be how do we find meaning in life."

"You can have a job if you want to have it for personal pleasure. But AI could do everything."

"What this advertising boycott is going to do is, it is going to kill the company [...] And the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company"

"Don't advertise. If someone is going to try and blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go fuck yourself [...] Go fuck yourself, is that clear? Hey Bob, if you're in the audience. That's how I feel, don't advertise."

"Offer me money, offer me strength, I don't care."

"Just don't invade Russia. It's never a good idea."

"SpaceX has roughly 6000 satellites and not once have we had to maneuver around a UFO."

"Civilization is rare. We should do everything possible to save it."

"I would urge parents to limit the amount of social media that children can see because they're being programmed by a dopamine-maximizing AI."

"Great damage was done today to the public’s faith in the American legal system."

"If a former President can be criminally convicted over such a trivial matter – motivated by politics, rather than justice – then anyone is at risk of a similar fate."

"DEI kills art."

"The CEO of an aircraft company should know how to design aircraft, not spreadsheets."

"Support freedom of speech in the UK!"

"Fine Taylor … you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life"

"The Dems want to take your kids"

"And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala 🤔"

"Video games are meant for you to be immersed in an exciting and creative alternative reality and have fun with friends. Adding present-day political bullshit kills the vibe."

"Be quiet, small man. You pay a tiny fraction of the cost. And there is no substitute for Starlink."

"I'm sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it."

"This immense level of overspending will drive America into debt slavery!"

"If things aren't not failing you are not innovating enough."

"Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!"

"The latest Senate draft bill will destroy millions of jobs in America and cause immense strategic harm to our country. Utterly insane and destructive. It gives handouts to industries of the past, while severely damaging industries of the future."

"this bill raises the debt ceiling by $5 TRILLION, the biggest increase in history"

"AI and robots will replace all jobs."

"From a post on X official Facebook profile, 22 October 2025"

"(About Amazon's plan to automate 75% of its operations) It’s insane to think that a human will pack and ship boxes in ten years — it’s game over folks."

"From a post in the official X profile, 3 November 2025"

"Musk is a parasitic illegal immigrant. He wants to impose his freak experiments and play-act as God without any respect for the country’s history, values, or traditions."

"[L]ots of luck on his trip to the moon."

"[the DSA] sets very precise obligations regarding content moderation [and that X needs] to be very transparent and clear on what content is permitted under your terms and consistently and diligently enforce your own policies."

"[T]hat laminated-faced hair plug cunt on Twitter."

"You don't have to be an extrovert to succeed as an entrepreneur. That's because business success is about making smart decisions and solving problems. Just ask Bill Gates, Elon Musk and Warren Buffett, who are all self-proclaimed introverts."

"Lies can indeed kill and, though there are of course many others, one of the world's most prolific enemies of truth is Elon Musk. He is surely the global far right’s most significant figure, and he holds the world’s largest megaphone."

"Musk isn’t promoting liberty; he’s using his power to privilege many of the worst voices in American life."

"It's ironic that Elon Musk, the man who has been talking about getting us to Mars should be Putin's messenger for the war in Ukraine, when we're having a really hard time getting our act together on this planet."

""I think it is possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary," as Musk famously said in 2008. In the 15 years since, he has revolutionised electric transport, broken world records in space travel, become the wealthiest person in the world, and made more headlines in a week than most tech CEOs make in their careers."

"Wow, interesting. I didn't think it was possible to look uncool while wearing a leather jacket and telling people to go fuck themselves, but he pulled it off somehow."

"Russia's slant on the world appears to have penetrated Musk's mind and he is by far Bellingcat's most famous detractor. Bellingcat's Twitter account has periodically disappeared from site searches and Musk himself often retweets conspiracy theories about the group."

"[Comments from Christo Grozev of Bellingcat cited by Luce] "Musk is extremely influential. He has a cult following and he's purveying falsehoods. Because of his image among his followers as someone who knows the truth that others can’t see, he is more dangerous than a Trump.""

"Elon has always been an introvert thinker. So where a lot of people would go to a great party and have a great time and drink and talk about all sorts of things like rugby or sport, you would find Elon had found the person's library and was going through their books."

"He would go through two books in one day."

"Lmao at a billionaire earnestly trying to sell people on the idea that 'free speech' is actually a $8/mo subscription plan."

"Leon’s, I’ll tell you what, Elon, Elon, is not going to buy Twitter. … He’s got himself a mess. He said the other day, ‘Oh, I’ve never voted for a Republican.’ I said, ‘I didn’t know that. He told me he voted for me.’ So, he’s another bullshit artist. But he’s not going to be buying it."

"Elon was wearing thin, I asked him to leave, I took away his EV mandate that forced everyone to buy electric cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!"

"Progress is measured by the timeline to establishing a self-sustaining civilization on Mars."
