0:00 [Music] all right so X formerly known as Twitter has been buzzing because two very very rich guys Mr Elon Musk and Mark cubin have kind of been going back and forth about some stuff to the point where Mark hban has expressed interest in buying x no yeah he just said it he just said it where do you think this goes and why I don't think Elon want sell it to him no I mean it will from from the highlevel version of AKA reading all of his tweets or posts or whatever you want to call them the whole like concept is to protect Free Speech right so like considering how much farther Mark is I guess from a political perspective on the opposite spectrum of where he is he is he on the other end yeah he's very he's very comma

0:51 endorsed uh type everything I'll keep that ████ away there [Laughter] there is naturally uh uh of course the sentiment that like it will go into censorship and especially even with Elon right now apparently Gavin nome's trying to file a lawsuit against him for like the ad parodies that he's been posting on oh the AI ones yeahi cuz I feel like Elon is the only one that's autistic enough to know what Free Speech actually means but do everyone else has feelings about free speech I think for him he like no this is what Free Speech means it means you can say that pisses him off you say piss me off but that's okay and I think because of that he needs to be the one that's enforcing free speech so I want him to own it do you believe that like that elon's whole motivation for X truly is Free Speech or is that just a

1:41 vehicle that sounds more like that's the marketing it sounds like he sees a underrepresented area that can be really like monopolized I think he did a good job using Free Speech as the way to boost ex's identity but I think it's money still at the end of the day right well I don't know cuz then there's two forms of it right so you got one it you could make so much to the point where now it's all about how you feel and what you want to do like there's like like that right but then there's also the other part of it where you're constantly thinking of strategy and business I don't know the guy so I don't know how do you feel about Elon well on this specifically he's a business dude so granted Free Speech or not I think he's going to look at it from a business angle so he probably saw that there was like a underserved area the business also from a business angle

2:32 though he bought the thing for 44 billion it like completely went down and profit and value like at a huge rate like crazy like nobody would he even screenshotted uh Mark Cuban's current net worth of like 5.x billion or something he's like I think you're like 39 billion short by the way buy this so like even from business maybe he had to offset some ████ and write some stuff off you's got to move stuff around also I don't know man it's weird because like even though maybe that's not the play like you know how when people are like oh he spent 44 billon did he spend that money though it wasn't just him personally yeah exactly like it's it's like purchases work differently than how like yeah a total of like 44 billion was spent but then it X isn't even in its final form like his whole goal is to

3:22 make it the basically the we chat of like America right but in order to do that I can understand why there are certain idealisms from and I I only agree with Bart in that I do think he's like autistic in a weird way that like it it some ████ just makes sense in a different way it's the same thing as why he'll be like uh with the boring company yeah I wanted to make a flamethrower because it's it's it's so cool right and you're like of course that was a waste of money R&D wise but like if you want to just do something he's going to do something because it makes sense to him you know what I'm saying so like for him he's like Earth as a human beings needs to become inter interplanetary species in order to survive because it is a likely 98% chance eventually some point that we will have a a world Extinction event happened just like it has in the past like he just like the ████ we read

4:14 in our Earth Sciences books you know to me he's just like this is fact therefore we must do this you guys are crazy if you don't support it and there's something so simple about it that I'm like and he's consistent with that kind of mentality you know what I mean even with like Tesla you the idea of being like it's like I do understand the strategy it's Tesla's not necessarily A EV car company Tesla is a a software and Battery company and EV cars is the method at which it makes sense you know what I'm saying Tot so it's like I get that there there's got to be some sort of like mechanism strategy and Method behind it but I do think the idealism stands that's what I think of X2 I don't think he's like I think he's it's it's something else he's not trying to save America I think it's something else you know being angled to something yeah we don't know what does like yeah cuz I

5:05 think everyone's human and so there's no like super hero per se like Superman or ████ Captain Planet or whatever but I think what he's trying to do out of the array of humans is the closest to the idealism that we're trying to support and I think that that something else uh element to it is not like conniving or evil I think it's business which is but a lot of times when it's business is like inherently bad for a majority of people I think there's a pretty good business in claiming something is for free speech anyway why it's not like he's in ████ weapons manufacturing you know so it's like pick your poison I mean everything's marketing everything is making a sale but like what are you choosing your industry in and is it that harmful yeah like the other things he's doing is what SpaceX neural link he's

5:57 trying to repopulate the Earth he's trying you know what I mean like I just think trying to have more baby mamas 11 Baby M is wild dude I think it's really interesting that we have somebody that's at such a high level of wealth and like control like like someone like that typically doesn't like being talked about that much so I think it's interesting that we have that like how do we have a guy that's so involved socially with everybody and talks so much ████ to people but like usually you don't know who that guy is in the world like you have no clue who is and you know what the crazy thing about this guy too that makes me like his autism is people at that level they have to measure every word they say cuz literally they're the value of their stock is based off the words that they say he doesn't give a he'll say some dumb ████ like Joe Rogan's like hey smoke some weed he's like okay and then

6:49 Tesla tanks 20% you know he's just for him he's just he's just so like almost like genius in a way where he's just like you got the blinders on yeah if feels very transparent although you know he's human and it he's going to color whatever he's doing with whatever his own biases are but it feels transparent because he does so many things that 99% of the other billionaires are aware of and will not do like he'll say like oh what about this oh yeah that up there and then boom his stock goes down I'm like who the does that that's crazy from a purely business single are you team Mark cubin or team Elon Musk that's tricky I mean I mean I think in this la like if you take like the last 10 years and what Elon Musk has done I feel like there's kind of a lot of Mark Cubans out there like you know

7:40 what I mean like that happens but like what Elon Musk has done like kind of like it or not but it's like he's like on Uncharted Territory for real you know like he's on like a Next Level kind of like things elon's like a disruptor yeah but it's the same thing with like X you're trying to figure out like what is his angle yeah truly an angle there it's so hard to figure out cuz I listened to him a lot on different people's podcasts and I put myself in his PR manager's shoes I'm like oh don't say that why do you keep just shut the ████ up why do you keep saying that but he cannot right but he can't he just can't control himself he's like I got to say it because this is how I feel there's something endearing about that over time though right but so many people like what I realized a lot of the news on Elon mus that I see cuz I'm very casual I'm very indifferent from it like I didn't really follow him until like I

8:30 hear you guys talk about them but people get so worked up they get really mad about no matter what when they say all these things about them and I'm like and I look into it and I'm like oh it's actually not that CRA it's more like emotional like it almost looks like those people are more obsessed with him than people that like him absolutely which is like strange and then they kind of project their thing on you like why do you love him so much it's like I just said I think Tesla's kind of cool and they're like well you piece of ████ and it's like dude what all right I think he's a genius marketer like the way he can for sure the perception of his brand isn't that the brilliant irony though because he literally is the one guy in such a huge space that doesn't spend money on marketing yeah you know what I mean so to call somebody like that a genius marketer who doesn't spend on marketing is fuing crazy or think about when you buy a Tesla and it's like you just buy one online you don't have to go to the ████ dealer like that alone is

9:20 like bro what like you tell any car guy that like this is what we're going to do you'd be like you're idiot you're never going to work but he find a way to like make it work it's insane yeah that's an yeah and he also was dating Amber herd in no court case Scott free clean no PO on the B damn that's huge on the don't talk about that one do you think El musk could ever do shark Tech that would be so dope if they're both on Shark Tank he's pitching to Mar yeah he's pitching dude that be tight so I have X I don't think he would ever sell it because I think he's he has a weird plan that's not even finished what well Mark Cuban came up on Tech right he he kind of um I forgot what it was but I think he he came up pretty hard during the do

10:10 com boom and he just kept going rolling into yeah what was his thing he did something that was like yeah it was it was something Tech I think he's not the zap BOS guy no that's F shade dude that's the end of the video joke J
