🚨 Kimbal Musk: Fake Farmer
Elon Musk’s brother Kimbal wants to build an image of himself as an urban farming innovator.
He went on national TV to say that his startup invented container farming, and “built 10 of these farms literally in old, used shipping containers”.
#Fraud 1/5

The media naturally lapped it up wholesale.

Kimbal’s website further reinforces his narrative with claims about "our farms", "our hydroponic system", "our latest farm design", & "our modular farm-tech platform". As if Kimbal holds proprietary trade secrets. 2/5

Now consider a company called @FreightFarms. See anything familiar? Purple LEDs? Vertical growing panels & hydroponics? Propping up container farms to encourage urban farming & as educational tools?

What Kimbal Musk & Square Roots wants to hide is...
3/5

Square Roots simply bought their container farms from Freight Farms, and slapped a Square Roots logo on it.

That’s it.

That’s Kimbal Musk’s great innovation. The one he says will deliver “real food” to astronauts on Mars.
#Bitcoin $BTC #SpaceX $TSLA $TSLAQ 4/5

Of course, you will not find any mention of Freight Farms on Square Roots's website.

Kimbal Musk didn’t invent anything. He didn’t build anything.

Kimbal Musk’s greatest innovation is switching out logos. An innovation as real as Kimbal’s cowboy hat persona. 5/5
