Elon Musk: I'm Appealing to Common Sense and Fairness

Elon Musk: “I'm appealing to common sense and fairness.”

“We should make our decisions based on merit. If somebody is talented and hard-working, that should be the only means of advancement. There should not be discrimination on the basis of sex or religion or any race or anything else.

A lot of the woke stuff is actually super racist. It's super sexist. And it's often anti-religion, but only anti-Christian. Why only anti-Christian? That's unfair.

My message is to the reasonable middle. You want a world where there is fairness and common sense and you advance as a function of how hard you work and your talent and your integrity. That should be all that matters. And the woke mind virus, as I call it, is against all of that. It's wrong.”
