Does anyone else pick up on the subtle humor of
X
being the means by which illiterate people can put pen to paper and "have their say"I doubt this is lost on Elon, as much of Africa was sold off to colonisers on treaties signed with an X.
K you better not have just unearthed the REAL genesis and hidden meaning behind all this
X
bullshit...👆Edit: sort of makes some sick kinda sense given his autocrat state-level investors... :/
And naming the Tesla models S, 3, X, Y, is a nice PR smokescreen that would help hide the previous theory.
Sorry Im feeling a bit dull, can you clarify what you mean?
He named the 4 models of Tesla cars Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y. This makes him appear to be juvenilly obsessed with X because of XXX meaning Porn. If it was indeed to hide the intent of him being obsessed with X because that's the symbol that was used to sell Africa to the colonizers, it worked because I was under the impression he was just sex obsessed, until I read the previous posters theory
