Our government has done worse, just saying.

The tweet is all sorts of can of worms Elon shouldn't open. Those are sensitive hills one shouldn't choose to die on. Probably realized it hence he deleted it real quick.

It needed to be said, next he’ll go after “Buy Large Mansions”, the organization. — No doubt linked to the ESG mobsters trying to squeeze EM’s nuts to keep Twitter on the establishment narrative.

Presumably Twitter will be acting as a crypto exchange in the near future using Doge as an exchange token, after resolving a few legal hurdles, so Elon is just trying to learn from where SBF tripped up, and thus has a very strong interest in the events.
I wouldn't touch race/police brutality. It's a touchy subject that no matter how much you are right about the details, you can be wrong by the court of public opinion. It's not a winnable fight and just makes people angry.

You know . . . a few years ago there were musings that Elon might be on TMC incognito.
I think we can put those rumors to rest. If he were here, he would have learned how toxic politics and the "third rail" are.

Gotta break that “off limits” mentality to have honest conversations no matter what the mainstream media (shown to lie daily, many times daily) narrative dictates.
No one has a right to not be offended. Trust me bro, I checked the Bill of Rights.
It's off limits because people are not capable of discussing it honestly or rationally. It's fueled by too much tribalism and emotions.
I assume he’s right. I don’t care. That’s not faintly the point.
The question is, why out of 47 gazillion OTHER potential topics, 3 bazillion of them involving various forms of lie or injustice, does he pick this one to weigh in on out of the blue?
Seriously, doesn’t he have anything better, more productive and less divisive to do?

Would you rather he post more vulgar memes poking at Voldemort to post something?

Actually, I think his tweets are a way for him to release. A needed distraction from everything that everyone that reports to him is always hammering him with.
I went to school with some super-intelligent people, one of which was on full ride and LEFT because it was too easy. Almost universally all of them had a craving for distractions, because their minds were just going so fast that they needed that release.
But of course, I've been wrong before, and it could just be Elon losing his marbles.
I'm also not sure Elon is 100% serious with a lot of the stuff he Tweets, or puts much thought into it.
This is in complete contrast to working on problems at work when he is 100% focused and zeroed in on the problem.
My conclusion, Elon is at his best when focused, and at his worst when not focused.
It would be great if he discovered a sport, hobby, social or community activity that acted as a release / distraction. But given the hours he works, he doesn't have the time / energy.
The problem is, Twitter takes little effort, little time and little thought, impulsive posting is very hard to avoid.

He seems to tweet about gaming in a way that indicates he spends a lot of time at it. Plus, all those kids...
If you are interested in getting musk removed as CEO we have a new comm
Things aren't looking good in that area.
Ar least the more tesla stock must sells to fund Twitter the less control he will have of Tesla
LMAO. User counts mean *sugar* when you are public company. It needs revenue and profit.

It's not out of the blue. Those shirts were made because of the Ferguson incident. He was explaining how social warrior woke mobs went to the streets based on a lie. His point is truth no longer matters once you go woke..coming from an earlier tweet he had.

I’ve no idea who these people are. But should that tweet be allowed ?
The board needs to reel this in. It’s waaay past time.
The tweeting is dangerous for Tesla. People have talked about the demand risks. But there are other risks with making yourself completely radioactive to one political party. Tesla is now a huge corporation and has exposure to federal policy on multiple fronts( e.g. FSD/autopilot, dealership laws, labor rules, etc.. and on and on). Same goes for spacex.

Seems to me it broke the "wishing harm on someone" policy unless the whoever reviewed the tweet didn't fully understand the tweet.
