Another Russian IPSO?

We found a livestream recording of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy discussing freedom of expression on various platforms, especially X. First of all, it is important to emphasize that neither Musk nor Vivek mentioned Russia or Vladimir Putin during this conversation. All.

A live video began circulating on social networks and Telegram channels in which Elon Musk seemingly praised the Russian people as a whole and noted the humor and creativity displayed in the multitude of Russian memes he allegedly receives every day.

Every day I receive PR reports featuring dozens of Russian memes about myself. Russians have a special sense of humor and stuff… I love these guys. I do not plan to get a Russian passport in the future.
– he said in the video.

Elon also seemed to indicate that he loves Putin and that dictatorship plans and imperialism are prejudices.

“If you put aside prejudices about dictatorship attempts and imperialism, he is a good man. He loves his country and acts in its interests,” Musk added.

In the video below, you can see that neither Vivek nor Musk mentioned Russia and did not mention Putin in their speeches. Additionally, the voices of both speakers are different; From this we can conclude that the audio sequence was created using artificial intelligence tools.

fake video

As a result, we can assume that the video is another Russian hoax aimed at the emotional response of Ukrainians.

Let us remind you that Musk called on Zelensky to explain the situation regarding the imprisonment of blogger Gonzalo Lira. It all started when the American pro-Russian journalist Tucker Carlson published a post on the X social network in which he accused the Ukrainian authorities of “torturing Gonzalo Lira.” The American presenter claims that the blogger was arrested for “criticism of the Ukrainian president.” The Security Service of Ukraine responded to this situation.
