Elon Musk misquoted 'The Princess Bride' when asked why he keeps tweeting political opinions and antisemitic conspiracy theories: 'If we lose money, so be it'

"Soros often is held up by the far-right, using antisemitic tropes, as the source of the world's problems," CEO of the ADL Jonathan Greenblatt tweeted.

He explains that he learned all manner of swordsmanship so that one day he will be prepared to duel the six-fingered man and say:"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." When he does confront Rugen , and is close to defeating him, he famously says,"Offer me money," to which Rugen agrees, followed by,"Power, too, promise me that." Rugen, again, agrees.

But not even the offer of"anything" can sway Montoya, who realizes that there is nothing he wants other than justice, and stabs Rugen, saying,"I want my father back, you son of a bitch!" Musk and Twitter did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.Subscribe to push notifications
