He literally says if you can't, you're excused from needing to. It's important to not lie.

> those who cannot physically get to Twitter HQ are excused

Probably means that if there are no actual flights from where you're to SF and that you couldn't get there in time no matter how much you wanted. Not exactly the same thing...

There is literally no reason to think he means that. That seems more like a deep personal hatred of someone and just trying to find the worst in everything they say or do.

Any benefit of the doubt he was entitled to went out the window a long time ago.

That's how the majority of people would interpret:

"only those who cannot physically get to Twitter HQ are excused"

the key word is "physically".

> That seems more like a deep personal hatred No need to make strange assumptions. I have no feelings one way or the other. Yet I'm pretty sure that most reasonable people would interpret what Musk said the same way I did.
