Ladies and gentlemen, Elon Musk is about as based as they come, and he's not afraid to say what's on his mind.
Perfect example here: Elon, in an exclusive interview with CNBC after Tesla's annual shareholders meeting, is asked, of all things, about a tweet where he compared George Soros to Magneto — yes, the supervillain from the X-Men comics!
Here's the tweet and exchange for you in case you missed it:
Yes, this is the tweet CNBC's David Faber asked Elon Musk about during an exclusive post-annual meeting interview. These things are important.
As you might have guessed, Elon's response is classic, so I'll leave the floor to him:
So we go from citing the X-Men on Twitter to using Princess Bride quotes to explain your position on free speech?!?!
🤣🤣🤣
AMAZING!!!
Why do you tweet these things, Elon, when they could cost you and your businesses money?
You know, I'm reminded of a scene in ‘The Princess Bride' — great movie — where he confronts the person who kills his father and he says, 'offer me money, offer me power, I don't care'...
I'll say what I want to say, and if the consequence of that is losing money then so be it.
I mean, it is perfect…
Elon Musk once again knocking it out of the park!
