Elon Musk explained the meaning behind his tweet this morning “Moving on…”

Musk later said his tweet related to Bill Gates was in response to some text messages between the two. The Washington Examiner reports:
In the text message exchange, Musk inquired if Gates still had a half-billion-dollar short position on Tesla. Gates said he had not closed out and said he wanted to discuss “philanthropy possibilities,” but Musk shut down the conversation. “Sorry, I cannot take your philanthropy on climate change seriously when you have a massive short position against Tesla, the company doing the most to solve climate change,” Musk said, according to the screenshot.
Gates has not yet issued a public statement on the text messages.
