Therefore, referring to the South Africa-born entrepreneur, Masvidal added, “They trying to take him out…”

Earlier, the world’s richest man in a ‘Twitter Spaces’ session addressed the social media site’s censorship accusations. While the focal point of the conversation remained the recent ‘Twitter Files’ leaks, the conversation also hovered over the 51-year-old’s safety concerns.

Musk’s earlier statements

The renowned business magnate, at one point, was inquired whether he was having any suicidal thoughts. Following this question, Musk issued an eyebrow-raising statement and thus told, “I do not have any suicidal thoughts. If I committed suicide, it’s not real.”

Significantly, the noted investor bought Twitter for a deal worth $44 billion. However, since then, chaos ensued, and the platform found itself midst of various controversies.
