> Elon Musk praised Russian state media propaganda outlets in texts, court documents show"

> "Actually, I find their news quite entertaining," Musk continued, according to the filing. In a follow-up text, the world's richest man described Russian media as having a "lot of bullshit, but some good points too."
> "Free speech matters most when it's someone you hate spouting what you think is bullshit," Musk commented after Gracias agreed with his stance on free speech.
Spinning this as praise is borderline disinformation. But then again, spewing clickbaity BS is completely on brand for BI.

- unmole 4y ago> Tweeting Praise for Putin Ally, Musk Wades In on Ukraine Again" The article is behind paywall, but the bit I could read says "The SpaceX Chief Executive Officer praised a snarky post by Dmitry Medvedev on Thursday about the UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, known for her tough stance against Russia’s" Liz Truss is primarily known for being beaten by a Lettuce.
