Elon Musk says he's wading into politics to stop the "woke mind virus" from destroying civilization.
-
He replied to a question on Twitter about why he was focusing on politics and not on going to Mars.
-
Musk's comments came following a report on a 2018 sexual misconduct claim against the billionaire.
Elon Musk said on Twitter on Thursday that he is becoming politically active to stop "the woke mind virus" from preventing humankind from reaching Mars.
Musk made the remarks while responding to a Twitter user's questions on an earlier tweet by the billionaire. On Wednesday, Musk posted on the platform claiming that "political attacks" on him would "escalate dramatically in coming months."
In response, Musk wrote : "Unless it is stopped, the woke mind virus will destroy civilization and humanity will never reached Mars."
Over the last month, Musk has mentioned the "woke mind virus" on several occasions. On Wednesday, he called Yale the "epicenter of the woke mind virus attempting to destroy civilization."
And in April, Musk used the term in a tweet , stating that it is "making Netflix unwatchable."
While Musk hasn't outlined what he thinks constitutes the "woke mind virus," the word "woke" has been c o-opted and weaponized by right-wing figures to mock progressive causes.
Musk also bashed the Democratic party in a tweet on Wednesday , calling it "the party of division and hate." In the same tweet, he doubled down on his resolution to vote Republican this election — several days after he first stated that stance during a tech conference .
Musk's comments on Thursday came in the wake of a bombshell Insider article detailing how his aerospace firm, SpaceX, paid a flight attendant $250,000 to settle a sexual misconduct claim against the billionaire.

Fucking asshole. Projection, as usual.
Just another millionaire/billionaire that see the republican party as his best chance to avoid paying any taxes.
BINGO.
Aligns himself with the whackjobs and the freakshows (I think he's a whackjob also).
Prove he pays no taxes
Stop making yourself look silly and read my comment first. Where in that 1 single sentence did I say he didn't pay any taxes.
Well, he wasn't lying.
This guy is on a downward spiral in terms of how the public will react to him. He should have stayed out of politics.
Right. He is far more popular than any Democrat politician right now. Just because some on the far left are now butt hurt doesn't change that.
Actually he's a rising star in the Republican ranks. When libs like Maher and Carville are telling the Dems to wake up, perhaps they should listen
Can someone explain how the "Woke" people are stopping exploration to Mars? Seriously, haven't heard any "woke" or "unwoke" folks stating Mars exploration, or space exploration for that matter, is a no-no.
Agree, he should stay out of politics, too slimy and dirty all around. He must be bored.
"One for small step for they - one huge step for them," just doesn't have the same ring to it.
See the buzz he created for himself? All by owning the libs. And the alt-right scum join in.
There was a time that Musk described himself as a moderate.
For him to be behaving this way now he must really think that all the favors he is going to be seeking from government in the foreseeable future will be given out solely by Republicans and Trump.
Hahahaha, you're correct.
I see that he harshed your buzz.
Exactly, EV federal incentives for all US models except for those made by our biggest EV manufacturer.
No more military and NASA contracts for SpaceX.
No more federally purchased Star Link terminals for Ukraine.
No more Blue State/City dollars for SolarCity.
No more Blue State dollars for lithium-ion battery factories called “Gigafactory."
Well, he is rich. I hear libs are cheaper by the dozen.
"Agree, he should stay out of politics, too slimy and dirty all around."
No more so than the typical Democrat. Provide proof of wrong doing on his part
Hmmmmm, actually wasn't trying to be righty, lefty, indie, thought my statement was pretty clear. Said it was all around, meaning both sides, didn't single out any of the parties.
Didn't accuse him of any wrong doing so no need to provide any proof.
America and the world have a billionaire problem.
(Looking around NT I am surprised by how many temporarily embarrassed billionaires we have.)
He isn't bored, he just wants the attention and nothing brings more attention than politics. Musk should be focusing more on his business ventures, many of which I do support, rather than firing off his shit cannon thinking he knows better than anyone else on how things should operate.
That's it exactly thrawn.
Left or right, Musk is yanking your chain and enjoying it!
Not mine but I must admit. I am enjoying the show
What is funny, as soon as he says he will vote republican, they jump on him like some kind of savior.
He has now said he wants to dismantle the two party system.
See how well that flies with the republicans so eager to embrace him.
Please, he is doing it because he is a self-aggrandizing asshole who LOVES seeing his name in the news. He is doing it because he is an attention whore, no other reason.
You are correct thrawn
Another spoiled attention whore like trumpturd is all he is. Just actually is a billionaire unlike trumpturd
Well, more than a billionaire, depending on which day you count, he is one of the three richest individuals in the world.
TDS may be replaced by MDS if above comments are representative of all dems. Nothing is more dangerous to the woke mob than someone with FU money that ignores their tantrums.
Musk will be the lefts derangement du jour in 2022. Living rent free in their heads right next to Trump.
Tesla isn't worth a tiny fraction of what the market has priced it at.
One minute Musk is asking his fans whether he should sell off stock to pay his taxes and the next minute he is trying to convince us he needs to sell off his stock to buy Twitter - Twitter!
The through line is that Musk needs to sell Tesla stock before the bottom falls out.
I rest my case and I think Musk will be fine. Just like Trump is fine, Hobby Lobby is fine, Chick-fil-a is fine ..... etc, etc ......
Is the food any good at Chick-fil-A?
Yeah, it’s pretty good .......... if you feel like waiting in a long line, which I usually don’t.
Musk isn't even buying Twitter. An attention whore like thrawn said
Why do you pay him attention?
Comments remove for trolling. Any further trolling will get serious violations.
