Elon Musk declares he is not 'suicidal' in bizarre Q&A trends now
Elon Musk declared that he is not ‘suicidal’ during another bizarre interview discussing potential retaliation for his ‘Twitter Files’ leaks.
The Twitter CEO was quizzed on his personal safety during another Twitter Spaces appearance just 24 hours after released internal documents about the platform's decision to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Tech guru Kim Dotcom asked the world's richest man if he had been having ‘suicidal thoughts’ out of the blue – something that shocked other participants of the chat.
Musk, 51, replied: ‘I do not have any suicidal thoughts. If I committed suicide, it’s not real.’
The world's richest man completed his $44billion takeover of Twitter in October and said that he had faced a higher risk to his personal safety because of his actions at the company.
He cut the workforce by around half in the first week of November when he officially took over, with 3,700 people losing their jobs.
Musk claims that the chances of him being 'shot' is 'quite significant' following his controversial decisions
Tesla CEO Musk was answering more questions during another live Twitter Spaces with tech guru Kim Dotcom
Members of staff discovered that they were fired after being logged out of their work around during the sweeping layoffs.
Musk said: ‘Frankly, the risk of something bad happening or literally even being shot is quite significant.
‘I’m definitely not going to be doing any open-air car parades, let me put it that way. It’s not that hard to kill me if somebody wanted to, so hopefully they don’t.
‘Maybe I should be more worried than I am, but I think generally, if you do right by the people, you have the people on your side.’
It is not the first time that the Tesla CEO has hinted at threats to his life, posting a cryptic tweet after clashing with a prominent Russian official over his decision to provide Starlink satellite internet to Ukraine.
He said: ‘If I die under mysterious circumstances, its been nice knowin yah’.
During the bizarre exchange Musk also indicated that there are ‘more smoking guns’ regarding censorship under Twitter's past leadership.
He hinted that there would be more releases in the near future – similar to that of the information published around Hunter Biden and the supposed cover up by Twitter.
