As a European, supporting Elon and X isn't always easy with the media constantly trashing him and X with their nonsense. Prepping my family Christmas dinner speech to set the record straight. Here are my notes for my fellow Europeans. - Most of you rely on legacy media and haven’t actually listened to a long-form conversation with Musk. If you had, you’d know he’s not the “creepy billionaire” you’ve been led to believe he is. He’s trying to understand the universe, the meaning of life, and what’s really going on. - Elon values truth and honesty. He strives to be as truthful as possible. If you stop listening to what the media says about him and start paying attention to what he actually says, you’ll see this too. - His bigger goal? Transitioning humanity into a multiplanetary civilization to extend the lifespan of consciousness. Why? To give us enough time to figure out the answers to the big questions. Now about X: - Free speech is the cornerstone of a functioning democracy. Open dialogue lets us share ideas, critique governments, and hold power accountable. X brought this back when it was slipping away faster than ever. It’s the single biggest recent contribution to democracy. How can you not agree with that? - “But people spread fake news on X!” --> COMMUNITY NOTES! It’s shocking how many people still don’t know about this. Community Notes is an open-sourced tool that adds context to potentially misleading posts. Notes are rated for helpfulness by contributors with diverse viewpoints, ensuring objectivity and broad agreement. No one is immune to it, not even Elon. It’s a proof point that X truly aspires to truth. - Community Notes is the most powerful tool to combat fake news on social media, a massive societal challenge. So why isn’t your friend Mark Zuckerberg rolling this out across all his platforms immediately? Or why isn't he open-sourcing the home feed algorithm like X did? A misunderstood innovator: - Say what you want about him, but Elon gets things done. He built the first successful reusable rockets with SpaceX, revolutionized electric vehicles with Tesla, and is pushing solar energy. People doubted him every step of the way, but he consistently delivered on what most thought was impossible. - He's motivated by challenges, not money: unlike most billionaires, Elon reinvests the majority of his wealth into solving problems like sustainable energy, space colonization, and AI safety. He doesn’t even live in a mansion, he rents a small house near SpaceX. Broader context: - The media hates him: Musk is a disruptor. Legacy institutions (media included) don’t like losing control, so they demonize him. The backlash against Musk is a reflection of these power struggles. - X challenges monopolies: Social platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok operate as monopolies with little pushback. X is forcing them to innovate or become obsolete. - Cultural shifts: X represents a shift away from performative “safe” spaces to real, open conversations. That’s uncomfortable for some but necessary for progress. Enjoy your Christmas dinners! :)

This is not the first time Silicon Valley goes to DC. When I went to work at Facebook in 2013 it already had a revolving door with the Obama admin. What makes this different: They’re not there to sprinkle magic innovation dust on the bureaucracy, they are there to gut it.

Elon Musk, the Edison of our era, could revolutionize government through DOGE: Imagine $2T in savings, a leaner, smarter system, & a future-ready nation. If Elon makes the USA as innovative as Tesla, SpaceX, & X, it could reshape our country & world. ❤️🇺🇸
