“There are more people that die in Europe from heat deaths than people that die from gun deaths in America. Why aren’t you writing an article about air conditioning?” asked Musk.

“Well, we’ve done several on air conditioning, and we had on our cover last week a whole long piece about…” said Beddoes.

“Pro-air conditioning?” Musk asked sheepishly.

“Very pro-air conditioning,” she responded. “You should read us sometime.”

It’s kind of the perfect moment. Musk throws out some meaningless gotcha and then asks why the media isn’t talking about something that he’s become hyperfocused on. In his ignorance, he demonstrates they actually are writing about the thing he cares about. And he just looks like an idiot.

I especially liked this part. The video of this exchange is even better! He thinks he's sooooo smart with these middle school level retorts...

“A quarter billion people follow me,” Musk said, referring to his X followers, adding “I think a lot more people actually like me than don’t.”

trillion bucks, thirsty AF

Musk insisted backyard tomatoes weren’t as good as those you can buy from the store, but people still do it anyway.

I'm curious when the last time this man made his own meal was.

“And also, if you look at the people that are employed at my companies. You know, we have senior executives of all races. I don’t think there’s any racism there.”

Tesla settles with three workers as Fremont factory racism cases by hundreds of workers continue

440 workers filed five lawsuits, with 54 to 98 plaintiffs in each, seeking damages over the alleged racism at the Fremont plant. As of July 24, the number had grown to 854 workers in 10 lawsuits with 54 to 106 plaintiffs each.

Musk insisted backyard tomatoes weren’t as good as those you can buy from the store, but people still do it anyway.

Spoken like a man who has never grown tomatoes at home.

I hated tomatoes until I ate a home grown Black Krim sandwich. Now there's the added benefit that I know it's not covered in salmonella or diarrhea parasites.

How is that mediocre nazi cunt still getting media coverage when he should be treated like he's never existed?Men like that don't coil when they're hated. They melt when they're ignored.

A notable thing the article doesn't specify is that when the pasty pap smear and the journalist discussed his constant idiotic claims that "UK is inevitably headed for civil war", first he said it was a natural consequence of people having different points of view. Okay... she disagreed and he insisted she just didn't know because she lived a "cloistered life". Ah yes, obviously this trillionaire moron who has been rich all his life doesn't lead a cloistered life. He's a real man on the street.

“If you have vast numbers of robots with vast amounts of digital intelligence, you have a sort of a quasi-infinite economy,” said Musk. “The future is going to be very, very different from the past. There’s no analogy or metaphor that I think illustrates the magnitude of change that we’re going to experience here.”

This is a classic argument from ignorance. "If I don't know about something, then it doesn't exist."

But one very stupid thing about his statement is that there is obviously an analogy. It's just like when people openly owned slaves. Slaves do all the work, and the master profits. Or, you could say it's just like the life Musk is living right now.

Fuck me, the word "robot" is even derived from an Old Slavic word meaning "slave." It's right there in the fucking name. But Elon doesn't know about it, so I guess it doesn't exist.....

this bitchass can just lie, or say anything he wants, nothing happens. no repercussions, nothing. why does he even struggle?

just say whatever is expedient for you. we hate you. and wosh you a slow death by cancer regardless of what u say

eugenic loving nazi queen

He suggested that everyone read Iain Banks for a vision of the future, and Beddoes pointed out that Banks was a socialist. Musk insisted he wasn’t.

Criticizing a thing as socialism when it's actually capitalism. Describing a socialist utopia and insisting it's not socialism. This isn't a thing unique to Musk. Why are people like this?

Narrator: "But he did care. He cared a lot. In fact, he was desperate for people to love him, and proclaim him the best person in the history of humanity, in any field of endeavour. Desperate".

“On the one hand, we started this conversation, and you described to me this extraordinarily transformative, amazing civilizational changing stuff that’s happening in the next 10 years. And yet you’re also, you know, an ongoing participant in the worst kind of tribalism… cesspit of social media.”

Beddoes asked how he can believe in these “two very different views of the world.” Musk simply responded, “I don’t think they’re inconsistent,” without elaborating further.

Beddoes is absolutely right. If money isn't going to be a thing in 10 years, then why not just spend like crazy right now? It doesn't matter if poor people move to rich countries because it will all be moot in 10 years. You can just use deficit spending if that's really the case.

Or you know what? Musk could use all of his vast wealth to improve as many lives as he can for the next 10 years. He'd be up there with Andrew Carnegie among the highest echelon of rich assholes who will be remembered for a long time by doing nothing except giving their money away. If he only has to do this until this singularity where money becomes meaningless, there's no point to him saving money all the way until that moment.

When he was asked about Muslims he said "If people are coming to a country with anitethical views, I am against that."

Lol, like him supporting far-right European parties? Their views surely are anitethical to democracy and not spying for foreign entities.

Also, I can't find the whole interview only larger snippets on Youtube.

I think we should collectively, the whole society, bully this guy to suicide.

Holy shit he has no idea what real life even is

Just to bring some facts in here:

Musk, in a post on X on Sunday, claimed those who say DOGE’s USAID cuts resulted in deaths “cannot cite a single name of someone who died out of the ‘millions’ they falsely claim have died. Not a single name!” New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, who last year identified specific people he says died after USAID-backed services were disrupted, quickly responded with the names of four he said died because of the cuts, including an 8-year-old girl, and suggested the world’s richest person travel to Africa with him to “talk to these moms and dads, and you’ll see the dying children themselves.” In another post late on Monday, responding to a separate response from Kristof, Musk called Kristof “an utter piece of s— and a liar.”

A study published in March 2025 found the loss of aid funding for children facing malnutrition in low- and middle-income countries would cut off 1 million children from treatment, potentially resulting in 163,000 child deaths each year. Another study published in the Lancet in July 2025 found the funding cuts could cause the deaths of more than 4.5 million children and more than 14 million total deaths by 2030. Kristof, citing data from the Center for Global Development, found that more than 1.6 million people could die within a year without American foreign aid for HIV prevention and treatment. A tracker co-created by Boston University professor Brooke Nichols projected more than 780,000 deaths caused by the cuts, roughly 518,000 of which are children, after cuts to treatment for malaria, tuberculosis, HIV and pneumonia, among others.

So he knows the names of some people he is responsible for their death. And studies show that his action will kill several hundred thousand people.

Musk said he wanted a Star Trek version of the future

Oh cool! So like a place where we make a conscious effort to learn and understand people and cultures we don't know anything about? And we try to treat them all with respect and let them have a seat at the table? That's so awes... What? That's not what he meant?

Lying piece of shit. This guy is just pure evil.

His ideas aren't contradictory, they make perfect sense. He's a Nazi, in the most literal sense of the word. He wants socialism for White people, endless abundance for the chosen few and endless suffering for anyone else.

Good journalists do not lick rich assholes boots, well done. I am fed up of many letting rich assholes spread all the fud they want. This enterview was refreshing.

this effing moron still cant get self driving to work and many of his competitors have surpassed his self driving efforts by a wide margin. But he's going to change the world with ai and robots huh. right. He's a bullshitter who buys companies and cosplays as a visionary. Just like with tesla, just like with spaceX. He doesnt know how to do the work to get there though, or how to maintain it once he buys a real visionary out.

"I don't care [if people loathe me]" who do you think you're foolin' lol

Poor guy has left reality.

“If you have vast numbers of robots with vast amounts of digital intelligence, you have a sort of a quasi-infinite economy,” said Musk

That's absolutely insane, and has no basis even in the hypothetical reality he proposes.
Very obviously Robots + intelligence <> infinite resources.

He has lost it completely.
