Tesla’s ‘TechnoKing’ founder and CEO Elon Musk took to the Babylon Bee podcast on Tuesday for an interview where he was asked about his appreciation for humor and satire.

Speaking on the subject of wokeness, which Musk described as a “woke mind virus,” Musk called it “arguably one of the biggest threats to modern civilization.”

“Wokeness wants to make comedy illegal,” said Musk, when asked for a further description. “Do we want a humorless society that is simply rife with condemnation, and hate? At its heart, wokeness is divisive, exclusionary and hateful. It basically gives mean people a shield to be cruel, armored in false virtue.”

Further in the interview, Musk raised an eyebrow when the Babylon Bee suggested CNN was a “real news organization” and asked why he wasn’t on there instead of talking to the writers of a satirical publication.

“I’m not perverted enough,” he suggested.
