Lizard People: Comedy and Conspiracy Theories ·

2018/03/02

Ah, the enigmatic Elon Musk. Inventor, businessman, stunt-puller… alien? There’s a theory floating around the internet that Elon is not what he seems - that he may in fact be a higher being from another world who’s infiltrated our own to bring us technology beyond our wildest dreams.

Flat Earth with Ben Dietzel
