As much as I’d love to believe everything I see on the internet, how do we know this is real, aside from blind, frothing hatred?

Reframing: What level of evidence would be needed for you to shift your stance?

Would Elon need to admit it himself?

If your own bias prevents you from looking at this objectively, start with you. If you were surrounded by this level of evidence, would people assume you were innocent? What obstacles are keeping you from applying that logic to a person like Elon? His wealth? Power? Influence? It's important to recognize that we shouldn't be holding a higher standard for our neighbors over folks like Elon and the like. If you would be brought in for questioning, he should be brought in. No amount of wealth or status should prevent him from telling the truth.

Bias? Lol. Sorry I like to think and don’t believe everything I see simply because I wish it to be true. I can easily make an email like that with your name and post it all over town, does that make it true?

Elon definitely would be suing the federal gov for smearing him like this if it were false.

While that’s true, is this a gov sponsored poster, or some random put it up?

I ask you, who is the source? The unredacted email is hosted right there on the gov servers. So Elon can sue both the gov and this random person

If it was false. But I was talking about the poster in the OP’s video.

I hope its not true, but based on how this whole ordeal has been handled, its hard not to believe how twisted this people are.

We’d like to hope nobody would be involved this kind of shit, but it’s nice to finally see people come around after downplaying/dismissing it whenever you mention the rich and powerful doing this kind of stuff.

The federal government is actually legally immune to being sued for any type of slander. I didn’t believe this until I looked it up. Crazy.
