Just ahead of the wider release of Alex Gibney’s Musk documentary, TikTok has banned the film’s social media account from its platform. TikTok did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

While TikTok has no official affiliation with Elon Musk, part owner Larry Ellison appears in the film via a text message offering to help Musk fund his Twitter purchase.

Last month, YouTube, Meta, X, and TikTok all faced backlash for rejecting ads for the film. YouTube and Google quickly reversed course, calling it an “error.” However, TikTok and X have refused to change their stance, and neither platform has allowed paid advertisements for the film.

    I hope Elon Musk gets aids from an elephant.

    Isn’t it good that they took down a Pro-Musk film? Or is this a documentary that actually tells the truth about him?

        Looking at the facts surrounding his life. A positive biography is impossible. About the most positive thing he’s done with his life. Had been conceiving children who hate him. And at some point in his life he will die, but too late to curb the damage he’s doing. That’s barely more than a sentence.

            Those are highly fictitious then. He’s not really a founder of any company he owns. He’s not even particularly intelligent. He’s a narcicistic liar just like trump. Who has to lie about even the most meaningless things. His skill in business and relationships, is money. He’s always been and still is, a wealthy illegal immigrant princeling. Wandering around Manhattan, with emeralds he stole from his father. That were mined by slaves.
