NEW: Elon Musk Leaves Audience Speechless in Italy 

This version removes pauses & dead space to reduce time by ~35%.

Well I had 5 kids and 14 grandkids and now almost 7 great grandchildren. So I did my best

Elon hasn't said anything new here, but it seems that he is speaking these ideas with more optimism, confidence, and eloquence than he previously has. This was enjoyable to listen to.

Too expensive to have children in modern countries. We are too busy sending all of our hard earned money abroad on "charities" and filling our countries with people that hate us. This speach could have done wonders twenty years ago.

I'm a huge fan of Elon Musk,and they say old folks can't change, but I have heard his opinions and am changing my mind to be in agreement with him, because he makes good sense. The biggest shock has been about nature...I was very childish about my outlook, but with just a few words, he has made me rethink and realize nature is not gentle ...it's harsh and hard . I'm 79 so this has come late but I am facing reality for the first time. Elon is a genius , and I hold him in highest regard.

It’s so wonderful to have a rich person with common sense. Thank you, Elon.

I do drive a Tesla and have a sun roof from Tesla.. But what I admire in him the most is his honesty Super Elon.

What a time to be alive! The richest man in the world is fighting for humanity at every turn. No wonder most of the leaders hate him. Can't have him solving problems.. what would we then need them for?

As he gets older he’s more earthbound as he calls civilizational. As he grows conservative and sees the limitations of youthful idealism.

“don’t worry about the cows they won’t destroy the environment” 😂

The man is a cheerleader for civilization! Awesome.

I never heard Elon talk like this before, wonderful.

Excellent speech......!!!!!🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

I think highly of Elon. Smart, down-to-earth, sensible, fun, non-political, decent, common-sense guy - a rarity these days. 👍

How about adopting some of the many millions of “unwanted” children around the world and giving them a chance at a better life and opportunities. This directly impacts the crime rates and every human being’s quality of life into the future!

An awesome optimistic outlook and one that humanity needs to get behind and support

Finally, someone explains what we should be striving for. Our future! Brings tears to my eyes. Profound conversation.

A nominate Elon Musk a Nobel Price for uplifting humanity with is visionary work and dedication’s for a sustainable future

"Free speech is only working when people you don't like get to say things you don't like." So true!

Thanks for posting this revised version, really appreciate it. I am sure it is a lot of work getting it ready. Elon was on a roll in this presentation. Good to see he is getting his message across loud and clear.

Considering I am a father of a 2 year old raising him by myself. The cost of having children is so extremely expensive I would not have another child Child care is so overly priced it’s ridiculous

This man knows something He is right

Elon is my favourite human of all time. Future humans when asked 'who would u meet if u could go back in time', their answer would b Elon Musk

Elon spoke very positively about humanity and the future. Well done! I think this can be contagious!

Bill Gates and The WEF must have hated this video haha. Well done Elon Musk

Thank you for these summaries of Elon speaking. The time you put into them is much appreciated!!

This world needs more positive people like Musk!

I'm really happy Elon is mentioning the Migration topic... Europe is struggling with immigration, there are EU cities that are barely recognizable because of so much immigrants comparing it for example 2010 and 2022... If countries want to keep their integrity, culture and status then this should change and if somebody is misbehaving or has come illegally in a country then they should be deported... Germany, Italy, Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria and other EU countries are unique when you go there.. and they have their own culture, festivals, origin, history and etc.. What will happen if there is Germany without any real Germans or Italy without any real Italians? I go to vacation to Italy because of Italy's culture and Germany and Switzerland and Austria, I like going there on vacation it's nice and unique but the last 2 visits I've had a strange feeling... Those stupid leaders should do something before it's too late. Elon is giving a solid point, stimulate birth, the government should stimulate birth rate or it will become worse and Europe's culture and nations will be left in the history and there will be nobody to tell them or continue them in the future. Believe it or NOT.

The way he described Woke was spot on - it was fantastic how he worded it. Then he threw in Disney as an example , he is sticking to his guns and thats what i admire about him. He is asked his opinion and he gives it honestly. You know he doesn't bullshit when he talks.

Thank u for having Elon on the platform. You can’t replace Love with Hate it just doesn’t work!

As a South African, I am so proud of Elon who attended the same high school as my sons, in Pretoria 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

ELON MUSK, Is the most important human to be alive at this time. Everybody should do everything they can to help Elon to accomplish everything he's doing, this way he can get more done and as many ideas he has to become reality.

He's crazy happy and positive here.

Elon Musk is one of a few exceptional men that mark their century and our history in a positive and inspiring way .

It's crazy on how common sense has become so uncommon and so suppressed that stating it on the world stage is an act of courage.

He and Jordan Peterson are the best and I love to listen to them. Both are complex yet simple.. Great men.

I’m so glad he said we should support women. I am a woman who has children and it was the best decision ever but it’s extremely difficult to “have children” physically emotionally and financially so I hate when people say have more children like they are placing an order. We have to support women in different ways and then you’ll probably get more children. Just saying.

Elon's explanation of the regulatory state becoming super restrictive is excellent. Simple logic that cuts through all the nonsense. The bureaucratic state is becoming an existential danger to humanity as a whole.

The reason the population drops after industrialisation is because wealth distribution becomes horrendous and people that aren't able to have what they think they deserve simply aren't interested in having kids. Most children unfortunately come from poorer income households (at least in the UK) because the parents don't think about the consequences of unprotected sex.

What a beautiful testimony about the love of life and humanity , and also about “consciencious” common sense !

He speaks with clarity and rationality. He is a true visionalist. What drives elon musk.

This person lives in a higher dimension than the rest of us. One we all should aspire to reach. That's why the Ruling Elite is fighting him so much, he inspires people.

This man is real relevation i love listening to him.

Greatest human alive. I'm not sure there are too many people he hasn't upset, however for those of you that hate him please try not to we need him now more than ever.

Hell of a guy. Great speech! Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭

Love him, he’s truly an amazing human. Thank you for sharing! ❤

So many orbs of light in this video...quite beautiful....Is anyone else seeing these?

Yes, Italy needs this message big time. The rest of Europe as well.

Also.... David Attenborough, a renowned naturalist and broadcaster, has been vocal about the need to address the issue of overpopulation. In his documentary titled “A Life on Our Planet,” he highlights the rampant destruction of nature caused by human population growth and unsustainable consumption, as well as the positive and urgently needed actions we must take to save our one and only planet. In the documentary, he appeals to parents to teach their children about the importance of doing their part to mitigate against overpopulation.

My hero is Elon Musk , May God bless Elon Musk!

Who wants to have children in these harsh times, one can’t financially support a family anymore

I never trusted Elon, but wow, I really respect what he is saying now. This is what we need, people with influence speaking up with what is true and right.

A sensible , intelligent human being, Elon is !

That's the thing about Elon. If you spend long enough listening to other people, he seems corrosive to the planet. But if you spend long enough listening to Elon himself, he is transparent to a fault, he obviously loves humanity, and he actively builds for long-term sustainability.

One of the most important parts of this speech is at 19:40. This is certainly the case in Western Europe. But I hope it doesn't take another war for politicians to realize this

He is spot on with the Woke Mind Virus!

Elon Musk is totally refreshing. How lovely and wonderful that in this day and age he is encouraging civilisation to grow in population. I agree with him. The world can cope, although we do need good leaders, and good corporate companies. He speaks common sense in all aspects. This guy is a light we need at this time, along with God and Jesus Christ.

Excellent interview. It’s nice to hear Elons thoughts without the ranting. He speaks truth and logic. It’s what we need right now! 🎉

What would excite me about the future is if it was announced today that all people are seen equally by the law and that the courts cannot be used offensively against the poor. Equal legal representation..can you do that? Do you agree?

As an Italian, we’ve been dying for interesting companies to invest in our country. We have the best education and some of the smartest engineers in the world, but it’s very hard for highly skilled young people to stay here as it’s a waste of their talents. What companies need to know is that italians have a very strong sense of integrity, and that is ultimately what brings reliability to a company in the long run.

Elon is such an inspiration. If all humanity has the same optimism, can do attitude, common sense, values, patriotism, and foresight the then there will be peace and harmony, and progress socially and economically in the world. Lastly thank you Farzad!

I glad someone isn’t afraid to speak common sense

I admire Elon Musk! We need to hear his opinions about all the wars going on and some peaceful solutions, if possible...

I would choose to listen to Elon on RU-vid than watching Hollywood Bollywood craps. Elon keep going please!!! I bought model Y barely I could afford but all to support you. 🙏

Thanks Farzad for this positive reminder. Just today even the Wall Street Journal, which I think of as having integrity, published another feature hit-piece on Elon. So sad that one person comes along who actually does something about moving us to sustainable energy while also reviving the space program and much of the press and general population only tears him down. All the people who now say they will "never buy a Tesla" might stop to consider that Elon is the only reason they can choose whether to buy an EV in the first place.

So proud of Elon! Many great people come from South Africa.

Italian needs to make more Italians considering their low birth rate. This beautiful county needs its people to carry on its wonderful culture.

God bless Elon Musk!

Elons momentum is on course! Articulated self with such clarity.✨🙏🏼✨

I love it when the moderator breaks into Italian. What a wonderful language.

.... however 'equal opportunity' enforced through transparency will nullify the ruling class... How can anyone say 'breed' without first addressing 'confidence' for the future.

This is one of his best speeches in my opinion. He touched on everything, and he spoke very well. I could not agree with him more, he said it perfectly.

I can't admire enough this fun-loving workaholic guy for his principles, common sense, and last but not least, his brilliant mind. Why we do not have more like him? On top of everything he is humble and quite willing to admit that he made and will make mistakes in his quest to build new things. I wish him continuous success in everything he does even if it is as hard as his last endeavor with Twitter/X.

Go elon go, you speak the truth fearlessly, sooooo refreshing, maybe there is hope afterall!

Go Elon on all points well done. Woke mind virus definition is spot on.

Elon is so inspiring and his message and vision of the future is amazing especially compared to the dreadful dystopian future other people have in mind for us. I’m on Elons side 100%. I will never eat bugs.

The more I listen to him the more I like and respect him.

Thank you Farzad! I really enjoy listening to Elon, he speaks many truths about immigration, climate change and population. Love his excitement for life and the future of this planet, the whole planet, thank you Elon!!

He continues to surprise me. What a legend

I'm so happy to be an Elon employee! Changing the world for the better!

It's so great to listen to a sane and positive person freely, without fear

Then give confidence for people to do so. Most of these millionaires/billionaires certainly make plenty of us too scared or simply too poor to bring children into the world ❤

Admire this Intelligent man who understands the topics & speaks eloquently and conveys simple knowledge explanations for someone 72, with Hope for future generations, if they will listen to him. Pray 🙏 for his Safety

He is not afraid to say the truth and I admire him so much for this!

Interviewer was well-prepared and Musk was at ease and allowed to explain his viewpoints. You "wonder" why the MSM have opinions about the man vastly different than what we would have after having seen this video.

Thank you Elon Musk for believing in humanity and reproduction for new generations. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ THATS TELLS US LOTS!!

At least now I can feel a little hope in this crazy world we're living in. Maybe I'm overlooking all the good in it as well. This speech has helped me feel a little happier today, thank you Elon Musk.

My biggest concern about AI is who is programming it and with what information what ideology. For that is how it will respond.

Good job Farzan. Really great to be able to watch this edited/ shortened version and hear what Elon said. He sure makes allot of sense to me! 👍

"The great Italian physicist Enrico Fermi was very good at asking profound questions. One of his questions, which is called the Fermi paradox, is "where are the aliens?". One of the explanations, and perhaps the one that appears to be the most accurate, is that consciousness is extremely rare. It's likely that, at least in this part of the galaxy, we are the only consciousness that exists. You can think of human consciousness as a tiny candle in a vast darkness. And we must do everything we can to make sure that this candle does not go out. So, it's worth reading about the Fermi paradox. One of the hypotheses is that maybe there are some great filters, and civilisations don't pass these filters. One of these filters is "do we become a multi-planet species or not?". If we do not become a multi-planet species, then eventually something bad will happen to the planet, either man-made or natural, for example a meteor or whatever killed the dinosaurs. And it's a given that, eventually, the sun will expand and destroy all life on Earth. So if we care about life on Earth at all, we should care about becoming a multi-planet species and eventually going out there and becoming a multi-stellar species. We want the exciting parts of science fiction to not be science fiction forever. We want to make them real." Yes.

This is the Beethoven to my ears. Bravo Bravo to you Elon!!!

A very interesting interview with Elon Musk. He is a highly intelligent person who thinks in greater dimensions. And he is willing to take the risk and speak his mind. This is fascinating. He is the greatest entrepreneur that ever existed. That should be acknowledged.

An Amazing Mind!!!! and he is able to explain his thoughts in a easy way so regular people can understand!👏👏👏👏👏👏

iv done my part for humanity ! 3 times ❤

I love the fact that whoever edited this excluded everything except Elon's views and ideas. You can easily follow what the interviewer was going for anyway.

Less woke for the future, more hope for the future

We've lost 70% of our wildlife in only the past 50 years. In the same 50 years we've lost 90% of our large predatory fish and 90% of our prey fish. So you tell me there are not already too damn many people on the planet !!! 💯💯

Have more Italians Please! ❤

He speaks my thoughts and I’m sure the same for many other level headed people. Woke mindset has caused a dark cloud over America and Europe. We don’t need woke. We were doing fine. We need hope and happiness again.
