Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has criticized political correctness as “the greatest threat to modern civilization.” This happened during an interview with the satirical website Babylon Bee, in which the eccentric billionaire mocked the media giant CNN.
According to Musk, most media outlets are now too serious, have forgotten their sense of humor and self-irony, and are almost always politically correct. At the same time, however, they are full of “rotten apples”.

The reason for the “attack” of the billionaire is the news that one of the producers of the network – John Griffin, was accused of a series of shocking sexual crimes against minors this month. And after one of the presenters suggested that Musk could still be on CNN right now, “which is a real news network,” unlike Babylon Bee, Musk said:
“I’m not perverted enough, I guess.”
Musk also cast a shadow over his colleague Mark Zuckerberg’s metaverse, commenting on his project as very serious, but in fact “compressed air”.
“I think we are very far from entering the metaverse. I do not want to be like an old man who rejects the Internet, but I can not see anything fascinating in the so-called Metaverse,” said the businessman.
According to Elon Musk, there is nothing more dangerous than “a society without humor, which is simply full of condemnation, hatred and false virtues.”
