Maybe it's because of quarantine, or maybe it's just my own tendencies, but I've spent

way too much time on Twitter lately.

Which in my world means it's been hard to ignore Elon Musk.

In between tweets about his company's Tesla and SpaceX, you get tweets like cancel, cancel

culture.

And Minecraft has amazing legs.

Or more significantly on May 11th, saying he'd be defying the public health order that

had closed one of his factories in California.

He tweeted, Tesla is restarting production today against Alameda County rules.

Sometimes he's just playing with people other times, he means it.

You know, he uses it as a performance, I think, is what he's doing.

That's Karris Wischer, the Dean of Tech Journalists.

She started recode, hosts the pivot podcast, and she's covered Elon Musk for a long time.

And Kara does not suffer fools.

Well, yeah, I was going to ask you this past weekend, he tweeted Take the Red Pill, which

is just love.

Take the Red Pill is a line from the Matrix.

It means basically wake up and see the truth.

Yes, it's a line from a movie, but it's also become popular with the alt-right.

Alt-right has grabbed it, but before that, a lot of techies like that line too.

But I think he fully knows all the implications.

I think a lot of people get angry because he knows the implications and he still makes a joke
