  And Elon himself: https://twitter.com/parismarx/status/1611861409733967872?lang=en https://twitter.com/parismarx/status/1611861409733967872?lan... > This is going to sound slightly crazy, but my father had a share in an Emerald mine in Zambia. The call is coming from inside the house, Elmo.

    Shhhh you're supposed to ignore all the things Elon has said in the past that directly contradict things he says now.

      What’s hilarious is that okay, even if his dad made it up… Elon has -also- said that he and his family would stuff their pockets with money and stones that wouldn’t fit in the safe from overflowing. What next? “I only said I did it, but I never actually saw myself doing it?” At some point there is a recognition that (at least) one of two things is accurate: 1) that a mine exists, or 2) that Elon is a serial liar. Also, “get a million dogecoin”… is that before or after he hires a PI to go into your background for a little light character assassination for making him look foolish?
