That's what makes it so perfect when he echos conspiracy theories, Russian talking points, and other whacky talking points and elevates untrustworthy sources by tweeting things like "interesting" catapulting them into everyone's feed.

Your comment sounds like a conspiracy (let's all lob insults! No substantiation required).
The substantiation is Musk's own words, easily visible to all.
Part of the "nothing is true" aspect is to make people start to doubt their own eyes. Let's not fall in honesty to the point where Musk's own Twitter timeline is not proof of what he is saying.
As someone who doesn't use Twitter too much, what conspiracy theories has Musk echoed or platformed?
The most notable one is the Paul Pelosi incident: https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/30/business/musk-tweet-pelosi-co...

When Twitter's working, just search for any tweet where he says "Interesting".
Or Google "Elon Musk conspiracy" and click the top link. I don't know if you'll be able to read the tweets they reference though.
