Shortly ago, Elon Musk sat down for an interview with the BabylonBee.
Today’s malarkey is based upon some tidbits from that interview.
Musk Must Bust Malarkey
Unmuzzled News headline: “Elon Musk just destroyed ‘wokecaine’ peddlers with this massive truth bomb”
“Elon Musk doesn’t follow the leftist groupthink that most tech titans do.”
“Sick of it, Musk turned his sights on wokeness in a recent interview with the Babylon Bee.”
“Musk said wokeness is ‘arguably one of the biggest threats to modern civilization.’
“‘Wokeness wants to make comedy illegal, which is not cool,’ he said.
“‘Trying to shut down (Dave) Chappelle, come on man, that’s crazy. Do we want a humorless society that is simply rife with condemnation and hate basically?’ he continued.
“‘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,’ he added.
“Musk then went on to say that Saturday Night Live ‘had become a kind of a moral lecture of why we’re bad human beings instead of comedy.’”
“While Musk is standing up against wokeness, Silicon Valley giants like Google and Facebook are going all in on wokeness with training on nonsense like critical race theory for their employees.
“With Musk increasingly speaking out against the Left’s insanity, he’ll continue to make the socialists seethe.”
David Hookstead reax: “As I’ve said before, with every single person who joins the anti-woke and anti-cancel culture movement, the closer we get to winning the war.”
