Elon Musk has claimed the risk of his assassination is “quite significant.”
In a wide-ranging, two-hour Q&A audio chat on Twitter Spaces, the social media platform’s CEO told listeners he “definitely” would not “be doing any open-air car parades, let me put it that way.”
“Frankly the risk of something bad happening to me, or even literally being shot, is quite significant,” he said.
“It’s not that hard to kill somebody if you wanted to, so hopefully they don’t, and fate smiles upon the situation with me and it does not happen … There’s definitely some risk there.”
The Tesla CEO and world’s richest man – a self-proclaimed “free speech absolutist” – added that “at the end of the day, we just want to have a future where we’re not oppressed”.
“[Where] our speech is not suppressed, and we can say what we want to say without fear of reprisals,” he declared.
“As long as you’re not really causing harm to somebody else, then you should be allowed to say what you want.”
This attitude has been clear since Musk’s takeover of Twitter last month.
He has reinstated previously suspended accounts including former President Donald Trump, and announced he would grant a “general amnesty” to everyone who had been booted off that had not broken the law or engaged in spam.
Musk also ended Twitter’s policy against Covid-19 misinformation, and dismantled the company’s trust and safety teams amid mass lay-offs.
Much of Musk’s conversation on Twitter Spaces, which took place on Saturday night local time, was devoted to the so-called ‘Twitter Files’, a selection of internal documents released by journalist Matt Taibbi on Friday.
Taibbi’s thread included files that showed Joe Biden’s team instructing Twitter employees to remove specific political content in October 2020, just weeks before he was elected US President.
Screenshots of emails revealed that Twitter employees deliberately suspended, banned or censored users who commented on the controversy surrounding the contents of Mr Biden’s son Hunter’s laptop.
“If Twitter is doing one team’s bidding before an election shutting down dissenting voices on a pivotal election, that is the definition of election interference,” Musk, who has been highly critical of the platform’s prior management, said.
“Frankly, Twitter was acting like an arm of the Democratic National Committee, it was absurd.”
Musk said he had given Taibbi, as well as journalist Bari Weiss, “unfettered access” to old internal documents – teasing more would be released and dubbing them the Twitter Files ‘episode two’.
“This is not a North Korea tour guide situation, you get to go anywhere you want, whenever you want, however you want,” he said.
“I’m not controlling the narrative. It’s just obvious there’s been a lot of control of information, suppression of information, including things that affected elections, and that just all need to be … you just want to have the stuff out there.”
Musk acknowledged during the Twitter Spaces chat, however, that the Twitter Files release had included some missteps, including “a few cases where I think we should have excluded some email addresses”.
“Publicly posting the names and identities of frontline employees involved in content moderation puts them in harm’s way and is a fundamentally unacceptable thing to do,” former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth, who was among the employees named in Taibbi’s tweets, said in a social media post.
“The idea here is to come clean on everything that has happened in the past in order to build public trust for the future,” Musk said of the errors.

Like I said earlier I hope he has good security. Hard to stop a determined killer though with the resources of unlimited.
I wonder if The Powers That Be recognize that is a two way street.
When have TPTB ever been threatened — going back to the assassination of JFK and numerous other criminal acts against individuals and/or groups?
They are threatened all the time, I’m sure of that, but we sure have never seen much but talk. Except when Bush tried to take out Reagan, but that isn’t exactly the same, that was just another hit by the ptb.
Yup, just ask JFK & Bobby.
Yer damned right he’s at risk…
Piss off democrat communists and you may not see tomorrow.
Please let them out themselves…..
The only folks that commit murder and/or mayhem with impunity have been doing so for easily 100 years … and (((they))) don’t have any worries whatsoever from the rest of US.
Call them jews. He isn’t pissing off democrats, or socialists, or masons, or the illuminati, or space alien lizards.
He is pissing off jews.
As a result, the jewish advertising agencies pulled advertising from Twitter and the jewish media badmouths Twitter constantly. The jewish financial system is probably working to fuck over Twitter, too – we’ll see what happens when Elon needs a loan at some point in the future.
So what happens? Elon crawls on his knees to Greenblatt of the jewish ADL, and Greenblatt tells Elon to jump.
Elon then immediately bans Kanye West for posting a stupid image – a stupid image Greenblatt has decided he doesn’t like.
This is Elon championing free speech: Allowing the ADL to dictate what is and isn’t allowed.
Just look at Kanye West’s treatment. It should go without saying that if jews can ruin your life financially, professionally, and socially, for pointing out their over representation in powerful positions, they’re clearly not victims. Quite the opposite. They’re oppressors, and they use their power and control to silence anyone who notices.
When you discuss a certain group of people and their negative effects in society and then YOU suffer those same effects….
Doesn’t that prove you CORRECT!!!!!!
When you look at history, Britain and Spain both enjoyed a centuries-long golden age after expelling the jews – ending, in both cases, when jews wormed their way back into them.
Roth is who should be worried……
I wonder if children knew how much “Adults” want to hurt/use/abuse them, would they be worried?
Wondering is Elon has ever pissed Hillary off?
Fuuuuuuuuuuccckkkkkkk. Musklon is controlled opposition. He’s on our side and at risk! Reeeee!
Starlink and Tesla are 100% part of the NWO control grid. So the NWOians are gonna kill the guy that enables the luciferians, lol.
Elona Musky Sheeter is not in any danger whatsoever. I can’t believe some of the comments here. Just goes to show people will cling to hope, and live in fantasy make believe clown world. Your totally right. Just wait till he turns on you, he is not a friend of yours. He is tracking you with Starlink, waiting for Patriots to get in his Tesla, From there your unvaxxed ass is going to be AI driven to an underground facility dug by The Boring Company. Where upon your arrival you will be taken to a comfortable chair so he can play “god” by inserting Neuralink direct to the brain. After getting flashed MIB styles, you will wake up at home and suddenly want a blue check mark and solar panels. While dreaming of a ride in space. He is taking you guys for ride, and spaced out cowboys are falling for it everywhere.
(Sarcasm on) What do you mean? The musk is a self made independent man who humbly started off in his garage tinkering with things………. and then Tesla and Twatter. See?
(Sarcasm off) The saddest thing I see is that people will never learn. Most will fall far the same trick over and over. In this case it’s the old ‘he is a good guy on our side who just wants to help make murica great again with ‘free’ speech on Twatter and at the same time implant foreign devices in your head ‘. How in the hell do people fall for the same shit over and over? No one is coming to save you. At that level there is no good guy. The Musk is in the club and you ain’t. The club does not care about you in any way except to use and abuse you as they see fit.
I ask partially in jest. Has Musk ever said, “I will never kill myself.”? He admits he could be assassinated. Aok. Is that taking one for the team?
He will be “assassinated” and retire to play golf with Epstein somewhere warm and relaxing…
Where they all are. I shoukd have known
DV person, what are your thoughts? I have to think your mama dropped you on your head if you aren’t able to contribute more than that.
“Publicly posting the names and identities of frontline employees involved in content moderation puts them in harm’s way and is a fundamentally unacceptable thing to do,” former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth, who was among the employees named in Taibbi’s tweets, said in a social media post.
As it should.
And it is NOT a fundamentally unacceptable thing to do.
It is the righteous thing to do.
Criminal activity should not go without the potential for grievous bodily harm.
If you wanna play, you gotta pay.
Nobody should be immune from reprisal from their activities.
Not the censorship crowd, nor those in the Covidian Cult.
Whine and cry as you might, but payback should always be a consequence of one’s actions.
Left-wing fascists have used payback for their ends throughout history.
Swing the pendulum and make the payback a double edged sword.
And asynchronous responses are not unethical.
Or immoral.
I have little doubt that a LOT of people on the left want him dead. But the people he MUST worry about
are the ones in power…the politicians. THEY have access to the tools and people with the skills to actually’
succeed in killing him. And I have little doubt they want him dead.
Brave Man! Just think wo is running the country! From the city within a city called London’s Financial district… who controls the Jesuits money from White and Black Popedoom and the Vatican Banks hidden riches… It has been said that the Jesuit order does not function like it once did… But here we can see on Greg Anthony’s Journals commentary… … the fundamentals of who is who and how the three letter security services are accountable to the Pope, and his Rothschilds connection with the Ashkenazi Khazarian mafia… These underlords of subversion … the FBI, CIA, NSA MI6 and the connection to the zionist Mossad’s jesuit order that has been termed illuminati mafia can kill anyone like they did that fateful day when John F. Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, was assassinated on Friday, November 22, 1963, at 12:30 p.m. CST in Dallas, Texas, while riding in a presidential motorcade through Dealey Plaza.
When will Americans wake up… Musk knows WTF is going on and who is in control of our planet at the moment and for some time in the hundreds of years past… I’m quit sure you don’t get to his position in life without a valuable historical education…
Listen the this Greg Anthony’s video and get your affairs in order…
The term sheeple is an oxymoron… I did not find Greg Anthony til this moment in time… what i know of history has lead me to this video… About J Edgar Hoover and the Jesuits……google this ..Jesuit Connection to FBI, J Edgar Hoover, Greg Anthony’s Journal.
Thus prompting Jesus’s RETURN!
I have to agree with Musk on this, hate-filled leftist will stop at nothing to stop others from dissenting about their evil
No worries, as soon as the would-be-assassins are connected to the borg, they will understand that Musk is not the enemy , but the savior.
Twitter ads streamed directly into your brain, no off switch.
Sounds awesome.
If he is playing for the right team, he will be OK. the 3 letter agencies only eliminate their enemies, usually.
