Um, the tweet you referenced reads "Please voice your disagreement as strongly as possible with
@AlamedaCounty".
Isn't this just asking people to, you know, contact their local politicians and voice their opinion? Like, how individual citizens with an opinion can do? There's nothing about suing anyone?
- paulgb 6y agoSorry, I pasted the wrong link. This is the one I meant to link to: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1259165058426232832 https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1259165058426232832 Shareholder: [...] can shareholders file a class action lawsuit? [...] Elon: Absolutely, please do! You should be allowed to recoup damages from the county.
- mft_ 6y agoThen let's be clear here too. He's not asking anyone to do anything, and he's not asking fans to sue anyone. He's agreeing with a shareholder's suggestion about a class action suit.
- paulgb 6y agoNot just agreeing, emphatically encouraging. I guess it's a matter of semantics. If you ask if I want a coffee and I say "yes please", did I ask for coffee? I would say the answer is "yes", but I could understand a hyperliteral argument for "no".
