Transcript
- 0:01Hey everybody. Welcome back to the Elon Musk
- 0:04Podcast. This is a show where we discuss
- 0:07the critical crossroads, the Shape, SpaceX, Tesla X, The
- 0:11Boring Company, and Neurolink. I'm your host, Will Walden.
- 0:24OK, congratulations. Congratulations Tommy on putting
- 0:28together an amazing event and really rallying to the people of
- 0:31Britain. Elon, none of this could have
- 0:34happened without you giving the British public access to the
- 0:39truth and giving us free speech and fighting for our free
- 0:42speech. So on behalf of Great Britain
- 0:43and the British public, we're incredibly grateful, Elon.
- 0:47You're most you're most welcome. You're most welcome.
- 0:51And you may notice this T-shirt that I'm wearing is Great
- 0:54British author George Orwell. What would Orwell think?
- 0:57I think that's generally a good way to look at these things.
- 1:01He would want freedom of speech. He'd want the people to know
- 1:05what's real. He want the people to fight
- 1:08against government oppression and and fight for the truth and
- 1:12fight for the future of Britain. Elon, we are incredibly grateful
- 1:21for your time. We know what a busy man you are.
- 1:24Why is it important for you to be here today speaking at this
- 1:28Unite the Kingdom event? Well, I, I'm of primarily
- 1:34British heritage, British ancestry.
- 1:37I, I want Britain to be be greater than it ever has been.
- 1:42I, I want Britain to, to remain Britain.
- 1:46I think there's there's something beautiful about being
- 1:50British and what I see happening is a destruction of Britain,
- 1:59initially a slow erosion, but a rapidly increasing erosion of
- 2:04Britain with massive uncontrolled migration, a
- 2:08failure by the government to protect innocent people,
- 2:11including children who are getting gang raped.
- 2:14It's unreal. The government has failed in its
- 2:18duty to protect its citizens, which is a fundamental duty of
- 2:22government. This has got to stop.
- 2:26There needs to be massive government reform in Britain and
- 2:29the people need to be in charge, not some bureaucracy that
- 2:33doesn't care. Elon, I believe that's what we
- 2:37started today, powered by the people sending a message
- 2:41worldwide. Elon, you spent an incredible
- 2:43lot of money on X. Why is free speech so important
- 2:47to you? Well, I, I believe you, you
- 2:51can't get to the truth of things without freedom of speech,
- 2:53without active debate. And there's so many on the left
- 2:57that want to just crush debate and, and, and, and, and put
- 3:02people in prison just for talking as you were just, was
- 3:06just for speaking their mind. You know, the, the essence of
- 3:11democracy is it should be a government for the people, by
- 3:14the people. And in fact this is a government
- 3:19against the people and not for the people.
- 3:25This is why everyone has gathered here today is
- 3:30something's got to be done. This is unacceptable.
- 3:34The, the, the government needs to be responsible to the people
- 3:37of Britain. It needs to protect Britain
- 3:39needs to protect the, the, the weak, those who cannot protect
- 3:43themselves, especially the children.
- 3:47And when I read about some of the, the horrific stories and
- 3:50how the government did nothing and try to hide it, they try to
- 3:53hide this, these horrific crimes.
- 3:58And then you see how much violence there's on the left
- 4:01with our, our friend Charlie Cook getting murdered in cold
- 4:04blood this week and people on the left celebrating it openly.
- 4:11The left is the party of murder and celebrating murder.
- 4:20I mean, let's put that sink in for a minute.
- 4:25That's who we're dealing with here.
- 4:28That is who we're dealing with. Elon, to so many of the British
- 4:32public who are scared to exercise their free speech,
- 4:35they're worried about being imprisoned, they're worried
- 4:38about being attacked, even to share their speech on your
- 4:40platform of X, what message would you give to.
- 4:47Them the message is, is really my message is to to to the
- 4:51reasonable center, the, the, the, the common sense.
- 4:57So my appeal is to to British common sense, which is to look
- 5:01carefully around you and say, if this continues, what, what, what
- 5:06world, what world will you be living in?
- 5:10This is this is a message to the reasonable center, the people
- 5:13who ordinarily wouldn't get involved in politics, who just
- 5:17want to live their lives. They don't want, they're quiet.
- 5:21They just go about their business.
- 5:24My message is to them, if this continues, that violence is
- 5:30going to come to you. You will have no choice.
- 5:35This is a this is you're in a fundamental situation here.
- 5:38Where you where Whether you choose violence or not, violence
- 5:43is coming to you. You either fight back or you
- 5:48die. You either fight back or you
- 5:51die. And that's the truth.
- 5:56Today, Elon, I think we're, I think the British public are
- 5:59telling the world that they're ready to fight back.
- 6:04Good, yes. Come on, come on, Ray Britain,
- 6:07come on. We've inspired the nation.
- 6:16Elon, you've spoken a lot about woke culture, the woke mine
- 6:19virus and how it damages innovation and freedom of
- 6:22thought. We know that DEI often sees
- 6:24people getting jobs when they definitely don't deserve them.
- 6:28Do you think this culture is holding back progress in the
- 6:30West? And what do you think needs to
- 6:32happen to reserve it, to reverse it?
- 6:36Yeah, again, I'm appealing to to sort of common sense and
- 6:40fairness. I want to emphasize just common
- 6:43sense and fairness, which is that we should make our
- 6:48decisions based on merit, on how if somebody is talented and hard
- 6:52working, then that should be the only means of advancement.
- 6:57Not there should not be discrimination on the basis of
- 6:59sex or religion or any, any race or anything else.
- 7:05And what a lot of the the world stuff is, it's it's actually
- 7:08super racist. It's super sexist and and it's,
- 7:13you know, often it's it's anti religion, but only anti
- 7:17Christian. Like why?
- 7:18Why only anti Christian? That's that's unfair.
- 7:23So This is why I gained my message is to the reasonable
- 7:26middle. Do you not want a world where
- 7:30there is fairness and common sense and you advance as a
- 7:34function of your, of how hard you work and your towns and your
- 7:39integrity? That should be all that matters.
- 7:43And the work, the work by Enviros that I call it, is
- 7:45against all of that strong. Thank you.
- 7:53Elon, we hear so much about censorship being pushed by
- 7:56governments and global corporations and organizations.
- 8:01A lot of people don't understand why we're allowing mass,
- 8:04uncontrolled immigration into all Western nations.
- 8:08Do you believe that there are powerful forces outside of
- 8:11elected officials, someone controlling governments that are
- 8:14trying to control the flow of information?
- 8:17And how do we resist that pressure?
- 8:21Yeah, I think when you, when you look at the behaviour of
- 8:25organizations or people, you have to say what is the
- 8:28incentive for these organizations?
- 8:30And frankly, the there's a massive incentive on the left to
- 8:34import voters. So if they can't, if they can't
- 8:38convince the their their nation to vote for them, they're going
- 8:42to import people from other nations to vote for them.
- 8:46This is a massive factor. And frankly, it's a strategy
- 8:49that will succeed if it is not stopped it.
- 8:53And it is thus far it is succeeding.
- 8:57And you see strong movements to allow people who are not from
- 9:03Britain to vote in Britain, to allow people who are not from
- 9:06France or, or elsewhere to vote in, in those countries, and thus
- 9:10depriving the the citizens of their democratic power.
- 9:16It's, it's, it's really a voter importation thing.
- 9:19And if they are allowed to succeed, they, if they're
- 9:23allowed, if this is allowed to continue, they will succeed in
- 9:27importing voters, swaying the elections, and taking your vote
- 9:32away from you. That is 100% what is happening.
- 9:36Do you know what's great? The BBC and the mass media
- 9:39cannot control this, can they? I love.
- 9:43You, I mean the BBC is compressed in the destruction of
- 9:46Britain. And we pay for it, Elon.
- 9:49We pay for it. Yes, we're.
- 9:50Forced to pay for it do. You know anything?
- 9:53To say if we don't pay for it. You're forced to pay for your
- 9:56own destruction. It's insane, it's unfair, it is
- 9:59wrong. Elon, a lot of ordinary people
- 10:03that are here today, they've been, they feel ignored, they
- 10:06feel censored, or they're labeled just for speaking up
- 10:09about their legitimate fears and concerns in their communities.
- 10:13Do you believe technology like X or even AI can finally give
- 10:18power back to those people? Or do you think it'll make
- 10:22censorship worse or even automate it?
- 10:27I mean, that's a, that's a complicated question.
- 10:29It really depends on what government is in charge.
- 10:32The government can obviously use whatever powers are available to
- 10:36suppress the people. And so I, I really think that
- 10:40there's got to be a change of government in Britain And, and
- 10:43you can't we, we don't have another four years or whatever
- 10:47the next election is. It's, it's, it's too long.
- 10:49Something's got to be done. There's got to be a dissolution
- 10:51of Parliament and A and a new vote held.
- 10:55It's and, and, and really what, what matters is, is rallying the
- 10:59people of Britain, really getting the people of Britain to
- 11:03get the message out there, talk to your friends and family and,
- 11:07and build a massive power basing on the people.
- 11:10And, and, and like I said, you, you really got to appeal to the,
- 11:13the sort of average, the just the normal people that just want
- 11:17to go about their business, that they're sort of in a village
- 11:22somewhere, they're working. They just want to mind their own
- 11:24business. But, but you've got to point out
- 11:26to them that if, if we don't take action, they won't be able
- 11:30to mind their own business because other people are going
- 11:32to come and maraud them. There's, there's risk of,
- 11:36there's genuine risk of rape and murder and the destruction of
- 11:40the country and, and dissolution of the entire way of life.
- 11:44And so yes, in the normal course of, of, of, of business, if, if
- 11:48things were, if, if, if you weren't under massive attack,
- 11:52then then people should go about their business and, and just,
- 11:56you know, live their lives. But unfortunately, if the fight
- 12:01comes to you, you don't have a choice.
- 12:04You, you have to, you have to fight.
- 12:06So you have to rally the the whole, all of the people of
- 12:09Britain to fight for the future. Let me ask and if this doesn't
- 12:14happen, there won't be a future. Are you ready to fight for your
- 12:17future Britain? Fight for your future.
- 12:22Do it. Go.
- 12:25Will we be gagged any longer, Britain?
- 12:31But you know what I mean, Tommy, you know, you know what I mean.
- 12:33There's, you know, there's, I mean.
- 12:34I talk to my friends in Britain and, and they're like, they're
- 12:37like, yes, you know, they're, they're, they live in, in a
- 12:40village here or there or a town or city here or there.
- 12:42And they're like, well, it doesn't seem like it's really
- 12:44that much of a problem. I'm like, well, if you want to
- 12:46know what, what, what, where, where, what's going to happen to
- 12:49your town or village, just visit London and you'll see that it's,
- 12:55it's, you know, filled with crime.
- 12:57It's, it doesn't often doesn't feel like Britain at all.
- 13:00And it's only, it's only a matter of time before that is
- 13:03what what happens to your town or village.
- 13:06They it starts in London but it will spread to every town or
- 13:10village in in in the country and and no one will have any peace.
- 13:15We're running out of time, people.
- 13:16We're running out of time, Elon. You've built rockets, you've
- 13:19built cars, you've built satellites, you've built AI,
- 13:22things most of us couldn't dream of.
- 13:24It's fair to say you're a visionary.
- 13:26When you look at leaders in Europe and the UK today, do you
- 13:30think they share the same talent for future vision, or do you
- 13:33feel like they'll be left behind and out of touch?
- 13:38Well, I, I, I think we've got to have a freer, a freer country, a
- 13:42freer, you know, Europe in general has to be freer.
- 13:47It's, it's stifled by bureaucracy.
- 13:50It's, I think it's, I think it's good that Britain left the, the
- 13:54EU because there's just too much bureaucracy in the EU.
- 13:57But frankly, instead of, instead of really going down a path of
- 14:01personal freedom and deregulation and, and, and, and
- 14:05getting rid of these stifling regulations.
- 14:07Unfortunately, the British government has has pretty much
- 14:10stayed on par with with the EU, if not in some ways made the
- 14:14stifling regulation worse. So this is this, if, if you have
- 14:20excess government regulation and oppression, you, you, you stifle
- 14:24the freedom of people to try new and great ideas and, and Britain
- 14:30used to be a country that did amazing things, some of the
- 14:33boldest things and on the entire planet.
- 14:36And that is possible in the future.
- 14:38But it can't be done if you've got this massive oppressive
- 14:42bureaucracy and a government that doesn't care about its
- 14:44people. And that has to change.
- 14:47There has to be profound change and and and there's not much
- 14:52time left. Elon, you've said before that
- 14:56civilization is fragile. We agree is precious.
- 15:00When you look at the West right now, every country in the West
- 15:04with its wars, its divisions, its censorship and its declining
- 15:08trust and institutions, none of us trust them at all.
- 15:11None of the public trust. Are you optimistic or
- 15:15pessimistic about where we are heading?
- 15:20I, I think if, if, if the people of Britain take charge and
- 15:27actually ensure that there's a government that represents their
- 15:29interests and not a government that represents foreign
- 15:32interests, then I think Britain has a great future and I think
- 15:37we can be optimistic. I think there's amazing things
- 15:40that are possible if the, if the technology that is coming is
- 15:44used in the right way, we can have an, an incredibly exciting
- 15:48future, one which is, you know, sort of Star Trek made real.
- 15:52It's it's sort of like the exciting utopian sci-fi where we
- 15:58have spaceships and we've got robots and we've got, you know,
- 16:02incredible technologies that are, that are really exciting.
- 16:05But we need to preserve civilization long enough for
- 16:07that to happen. And, and we need to go on with
- 16:11it and upward. And we need to fight for such a
- 16:14future. Such a future is not inevitable.
- 16:16We have to fight for such a future.
- 16:20I think that I think that many British people have lost hope.
- 16:24But after today's scene, have you got hope again?
- 16:26Britain, Britain is awake. Thanks to you, Elon.
- 16:31Thanks for your input. Can we just start?
- 16:33Thanks to you, Tommy. Thank you, Bravo.
- 16:34Can we ask what, what do you see as the future of the UK and
- 16:38Europe in your vision? What's where are we heading?
- 16:40What's the future like for us? Well, I think, I think there
- 16:46needs to be a future where there is where the people take charge,
- 16:49where there's there's deregulation, a massive
- 16:52reduction in bureaucracy and generally a New Hope where
- 16:57people look forward, wake up in the morning, look forward to the
- 17:00future. They're excited about what's
- 17:01going to happen next. And but we must have
- 17:06revolutionary government change for that to occur.
- 17:09And this, this is not ordinary course of business sort of
- 17:11stuff. This really requires everyone
- 17:15to, to sort of Marshall the people.
- 17:18So to take charge, reform the government and make sure that
- 17:22you actually have a government that is formed people by the
- 17:24people. And that's essential.
- 17:27And that's not if. And so we really had a fork in
- 17:30the road here. There's a fork in the road to,
- 17:33to, to darkness or greatness. And that and that will be
- 17:38decided only in a matter of years.
- 17:41And we must take the path to greatness.
- 17:43And that's the path that's exciting and inspiring and will
- 17:47make what life worth living. Elon, you've done more than
- 17:54anyone to shine a torch on the crimes committed against a
- 17:57generation of our daughters. On behalf of everyone and on
- 18:01behalf of all of us in Great Britain, thank you.
- 18:04Know what? We wouldn't even be in the
- 18:05fight. Not only are we in the fight
- 18:07right now, but we're on the advance thanks to free speech
- 18:11being fought for for us by Elon Musk.
- 18:14We're very grateful, Sir. You're most welcome.
