He believes that the &#8220;woke mind virus&#8221; is dangerous because it prevents people from questioning things and undermines the First Amendment. <\/p>\n<p>He also pointed out that it&#8217;s &#8220;bizarre&#8221; that the political Left has gone from being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/univ-of-ill-repeals-speech-stifling-policies\/\" title=\"Univ. of Ill. repeals speech stifling policies\">pro-free speech<\/a> to advocating censorship. Musk believes that we must <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/im-launching-an-investigation-into-big-tech-censorship-heres-why\/\" title=\"I\u2019m Launching An Investigation Into Big Tech Censorship.

He believes that we should be extremely concerned about anything that undermines the First Amendment and that censorship will eventually return on those who advocate it. <\/p>\n<h3>Watch the Interview<\/h3>\n<p>Check out the interview below to hear more about Musk&#8217;s thoughts on the &#8220;woke mind virus&#8221; and the importance of free speech. <\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1682517572037000&#038;usg=AOvVaw0eoxTLnzKr3rl49f2LXGnU\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitter CEO Elon Musk said during an interview with Bill Maher on HBO\u2019s \u201cReal Time\u201d this week that the so-called \u201cwoke mind virus\u201d was a threat to humanity because it stifles free speech and is fundamentally anti-meritocratic.
