Let's talk a bit about your tweets, um, because it comes up a
lot um even today, it came up in you know, anticipation of this.
I mean, um, you know, you do some tweets that seem
to be or at least give support to some who would call others conspiracy theories.
Well yes, but I mean honestly, you know some of these conspiracy
theories, uh have turned out to be true? Which ones were? Like
the hunter Biden laptop that's true? Yeah? Yeah? So uh you know
that that that that was a pretty big deal. There was Twitter and and
and and others engaged in active suppression of information that was relevant to the public.
Um. That's that's a that's a terrible thing that happened. That's like
your interference. But how do you make a choice you don't see, I
mean in terms of when you're going to engage. I mean, for example,
even today, elon you you you tweeted this thing about George Soros.
Well looking for because I want to make sure I quote it properly, but
I mean, you know what you wrote, but you basically this is like,
you know, calm down, people, this is not out of it.
As you said, he wants to rode the very fabric of civilization and
source hates humanity. Like when you do something like that, Yeah, I
think that's true. That's my opinion, Okay, but why share it?
Why share it especially? I mean why share it when people who buy teslas
may not agree with you, advertisers are on Twitter may not agree with you.
Um, why not just say hey, I think this. You can
tell me, we can talk about it over there, you can tell your
friends, But why share it widely? I mean, this is freedom of
speech. I'm allowed to say whatever you absolutely are, But I'm trying to
understand why you do, because you have to know it's got a there.
It puts you in a in the middle of a partisan divide in the country.
It makes you a lightning rod for criticism. I mean, do you
like that. You know people today saying he's an anti Semite. I don't
think you are. No, I'm definitely. I'm like, I'm like a
process might if anything, I believe that probably is the case. Why would
you even introduce the idea of it that that would be the case. I
mean, it looks we don't want to make this a George Stars interview.
No, God, no, I don't. I don't want to at all.
But I'm what I'm trying even came up there in the annual meeting.
I mean, you know, do your tweets hurt the company? Are there
test loaners to say I don't agree with his political position because and I know
it because he shares so much of it? Or are there advertisers on Twitter
that Linda Yak Greena will come and say you gotta stop man, Or you
know, I can't get these ads because of some of the things you tweet.
You know, I'm reminded of as a see it in the Princess Bride,
great movie, Great Um, where he confronts the person who killed his
father. He says, offer me money, offer me power. I don't
care. So you just don't care. You want to share what you have
to say, I'll say I don't want to say. And if, if,
if the consequence of that is losing money, so be it. Okay.
But I mean when you when you when you link to somebody who's talking
about the guy who killed children in a mall in Allen, Texas, you
say something like it might be a bad siop. I'm not quite sure what
you meant, but oh, in that particular case, there was a somehow
that's that's not not not that the that the obviously people people were killed,
but the it was I think incorrectly ascribed to be a white supremacist action.
Um. And the evidence for that was some obscure Russian website that no one's
ever heard of that had no followers. Um. And the the company that
that found this is belling Cat, Right, you know what bellect does psy
ops. Right. I couldn't really even follow exactly what it was you were
trying to express there, So that's part why I was curious. But I'm
saying that I thought that the ascribing a too white supremacy was bullshit, okay,
and and uh and and and that the information for that came from an
obscure Russian website and was somehow magically found by baling Cat, which is a
company that does psy ops. And there's no proof, by the way,
that he was not. There's no I would say that there's no proof that
he And that's a debate you want to get into on Twitter. Yes,
because we should not be ascribing things to watch supremacy if there if it's false
