In an interview this week, Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk said that wokeness “wants to make comedy illegal” and gives “cruel” people a reason to be hateful. Musk made the remarks in a one hour and forty-minute interview with The Babylon Bee, where he discussed wokeness, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D), the Metaverse, taxing the rich, and more with CEO Seth Dillon, Editor-In-Chief Kyle Mann, and Creative Director Ethan Nicolle. “Generally, I think we should be aiming for, like, a positive society, and it should be okay to be humorous,” Musk said in the interview. I think it is reasonable.

Elon Musk is going to thoroughly expose the woke left, and it's going to make a lot of them uncomfortable.

Didn't Bankman-Fraud get caught saying the woke thing is nothing but a scam and a fraud like him? The people with wealth who jumped on the woke bandwagon are all pretty much thinking what these guys are thinking. They don't take it seriously at all. Only partisans do. The rich don't give a damn so long as they can continue getting richer.

Agree with this. Not a fan of his major businesses but I like most of what he has to say. It is especially nice to hear someone defend large families in this day and age, although I can’t say I agree with how he is going about creating his.

Wokesters are worse than the worst of the Catholic Nuns of my youth. Hateful and narrow minded and above all judgmental.
