Elon Musk wants the U.S. to “Liberate the people of Britain from their tyrannical government”

Elon Musk should jam soup cans up his ass till they come out his mouth.
✅ Yes 99%
⏹️ No 1%
- Elon Musk should shove cactuses up his ass utill he cant fit any more.
  ✅ Yes 100%
  ❌ No 0%
- No he should be spitroasted by soup cans til they burst out his barrel gut
  
  Just kill the riotseeker, for fucks sake
- Why hasn't anyone tried to off him yet?
- How long till the results are calculated?

I genuinely can't believe what is happening. What timeline are we living in?
Maybe it's time we designated Musk as a terrorist?
- I genuinely can’t believe what is happening
  Then you should pay more attention to history...
  And I don't mean that as an insult, all this shit is reruns of shit we've already been thru. WW2 had a large push by wealthy American businessmen to not just abstain from the war, but they advocated for joining the Axis back then.
  Capitalism and fascism go hand in hand, the ultra wealthy will always want fascism because fascist leaders love bomb them to get their wealth and power behind the movement.
  We all need to understand this shit so we can understand what worked last time and why it didn't work permanently
  
  Only this time its: Whoops! All Axis!
  
  Fascism cannot exist without capitalism. Capital is what supports and strengthens fascism - the idea that business is more important than the people. This sounds like how the world has always been but it wasn't until the 60s, at least in the US, when the business leaders wanted to stop unions, make more money, stop the possibilities of environmentalists from hurting profits, etc. The pushback from the people in the 60s spawned the Civil Rights and threatened to derail the business first approach America had gotten used to from after the Depression. The war years gave too much money and power to too few people and things like the Business Plot simmered under the surface of our grandparents' generation. Two generations of propaganda that made social and community based governing sound villainous has brought us to a full on fascist revolution slow burning through wealthy democracies.

What the fuck is this, an anachronistic parody of 1939? "What if Hitler had Twitter"?
For the sake of the world, I hope whatever brain-eating disease he's contracted acts quickly.

Meanwhile he's fine with Putin, even has chats over the phone with him.
...never seen him tweet anything bad about him infact.
- Why would he talk bad about one of the few people in the world that's richer than he is?
- Probiotic .net comment

My bins weren't collected last week, now we've got snow in them and all the cardboard's all wet and soggy. If that is not evidence of a tyrannical dictatorship, then I don't know what is.
- Adrian Binnmann will be straight over as soon as you let that nice billionaire run the country.
  
  YOU WILL NOT DEFEAT THE SNOWMAN BIN OVERLADEN.
- of course they won't collect your bins, the government feels threatened by count binface and refuses to support his people

Tell me more how Dems were the real war hawks.
- Republicans have only threatened to invade Mexico, Canada and the UK so far, with a few days to go yet until they take power. They're basically pacifists.
  Edit: Oh, and Panama.
  
  And basically Greenland too

Brit here. What a complete wankpuffin. He should focus on liberating himself from his own stupidity.
- "wankpuffin" going to have to use that one.

Non American , and non brit here. Why is this waste of energy so interested in the UK and Europe now ? I know there will be plenty of cynical takes which I will probably endorse however I’m interested in what his actual motivation might be. Does he just want parties in power in the given country that he has influence over for the sake of legislative advantage for his businesses? Or is it trollconomics for sake of driving signups to his failing social network I forget the name of?
- Musk is under Putin's thumb and Britain is one of the leading supporters of Ukraine.
  
  Yep also China has a hold on musk economically. And supports Russia.
  Russia has managed to gain a hold on the US again. (Reminding folks about his illegal holding of Ukraine funds last time)
  The UK is by far the next most vocal supporter.
- it’s all a big ploy to give the US bargaining chips when negotiating with the UK for trade agreements.
  “well we’re going to tariff the shit out of you unless we can sell chlorine washed chickens in your country”
  “oh also fuck your publicly owned railways and roads, you’ll sell them to us at a discount or you’ll be sorry.”
  “by the way we’re still going to endorse and fund far right parties and destabilise your democracy - that’s just what allies do, right?”
  
  Publicly owned railway? Hold on there Thatcher!
- He wants to be king of the world, it's as simple as that. He already has the most money (not that that'll stop him from wanting more), now he just needs to have the most power, and actively supporting the rise of fascism around the world (which he has been doing for long before he let his mask start to slip and now completely come off) is his way of getting it.
  The fact that you think he bought twitter, or is running it the way he is as some sort of troll, rather than a very real, and very effective, way of manipulating the public as well as politics as a whole, shows how well it works.
- Trump could be soliciting bribes by threatening people as well, but musk is the one giving him directions.
  "Oh yeah, Canada will pay up just yell some shit about invading."

Surely there's only troll bots and right wing psychopaths left on twitter? I'm surprised it's not 100% yes

Why do I feel like we're about to do a whole Third Reich thing?
- This one will be the Fourth Reich.
- History doesn't repeat but it does rhyme.

Elon Musk clearly needs mental health support.
Hell of late he is making trump see, sane and well-thought-out.

Imagine that! Wannabe dictator asking whether or not they should invade a sovereign country! He's truly a good person because he asked his people if they should invade instead of flat out invading!
/s
- And we can trust the reliability of the data, given the sterling reputation of Twitter and Musk himself, of course.
- I'm also positive that the pole was representative of the US population as a whole and not just his idiot supporters.
  
  i can personally guarantee that none of the votes were artificial or meddl-

- see, he is better than putin!

US here, we need to worry about our own government right now, and many of us wish Musk would drive his own Cyber truck to test dummy it's 'features' personally. As a US citizen I am sorry the oligarchy is a pain for you as well.
- It'll be worse for you guys though. Trade sanctions cut both ways and the thing is the UK has the rest of the world to trade from, but the US will impose sanctions on everyone and shoot themselves in the foot.

If in the next decade Ruzzia and America form an AXIS like alliance to take over more territory I won’t be surprised.

You should've voted yes. It'll get X banned faster in Europe.

Can't tell if this guy's finally lost it or I just have a very different sense of humor from him
- I have heard a hypothesis that his ketamine habit has burned through a bit too much frontal lobe.
- He never had it
- He is looking for that rush of purchasing the highest office in the country and nothing is scratching the itch anymore.

Wow, the Nazis (and bots) that remain on Twitter agree with their Nazi leader, I'm so surprised!

I’m a Dane living in the UK. This is beginner level Trump/musk idiocy. Denmark is currently wrestling with the US demanding a piece of their kingdom (and yes, Denmark is a democracy, so using the word kingdom may seem a bit anachronistic, but in this case we are talking about Greenland, which is an autonomous region of the Danish commonwealth, so the official term is “kingdom”)

Let's do an internet poll about invading another country.
If it was a 13 year old kid I could understand it, but this is musk
- Functionally the same
- 13 year old kid is a ceiling for Elmo when it comes to politics

I want to liberate Musk's body from his oppressive brain.

They're welcome to Luton, to be honest.
- If he sees Bradford he'll probably have an aneurysm.
  
  Oi! That's the UK City of Culture 2025 you're talking about!
  "Even reading the local newspaper, some of the headlines can be very upbeat, and beneath it are just loads of comments that, 'This is a disaster, it'll just never work, Bradford is doomed'."

I can't believe Elon musk managed to destroy twitter so much they lead to four separate twitter's for each political quadrant!
Twitter for the right, Twitter for the left, Twitter for the libertarian, Twitter for Linux users
- It's twitter for the right, Lemmy for the left, bluesky for the libertarians and Linux users have joined either us, or gone back to trusty bulletin boards
  Source: no idea

Right, because his tyranny will be so much better for us! 🙄

Jesus. Who are the numbnut 62% who chose Yes?
- The people still remaining on X will skew numbnut.
- Mostly bots
  
  Must have learned his lesson after having his "step down now?" poll go not in his favor.
- Adrian Dittman 1, Adrian Dittman 2,(...), Adrian Dittman 8573.
  
  Lol
- Every person who ever said the word "cuck" in public with zero irony.

Maybe ~~Putin~~ Musk should launch a special military operation in ~~Ukraine~~ Britain to ~~de-nazify~~ de-tyrranize them. How kind and noble that would be.

No oil there, you twit.
- Yes. No oil.
  hastily hides the north sea oil fields
  
  Black and viscous - bound to cure blue lethargy
  Sugar-plum petroleum for energy
  Tightrope-balanced payments need a small reprieve
  Oh, please believe
  We want to be
  in North Sea Oil

Yay, no X in the UK soon! UK will so be liberated.

Can we turn all the lights off and pretend nobody's home when they come knocking? We'll definitely hear them coming.

third grade troll

Nah, you are OK, thanks.

Maybe willingly telling the guy steamrolling towards the 1984 timeline exactly who is against him isn't the best idea?

Excited to see Elon Musk start paling around with King Charlies and talking about a return to Absolute Monarchy in a few weeks.

Absolute masterpiece of an example of how the narrative of a question is equally as important.
Neither Yes or No are a good answer here.

On one hand, fuck that fucking assclown.
On the other hand, my god that would be one hell of a comeback in historical terms: former colony invades and ~~colonizes~~ liberates former rulers
- Not that the empire still exists of course, so what you're actually invading is the land that used to belong to a society that no longer exists and a different society is there now and is unhappy about having to deal with this nonsense.

Yeah, invade it and add it back to the EU as a vassal state, undo that Brexit.

Given his role in the upcoming cabinet, it's no doubt going to be very cost-efficient and won't increase the size of either government.
Maybe NHS will make profit for the first time!

What he wants to do, is fuck the fuck off.

How... kind of him... always nice to see the richest man in the world having fuck all to do but shitpost.

So between this and trumps statements on Canada are we getting the commonwealth back together? I could go for another burning down of a white house.

The best thing I can say about Musk is that watching him spiral even further into madness will be fun.
- Yup, even better since he's buddies with Trump right now, when the shit hits the fan it will be better than reality tv.

Save them from a tyrannical government by dissolving the elect members?

Yawn been there, done that. Let's set our sights to the future of America, not on assimilating the losers.

I mean.......they started it.....
🤣

Wonder-bombs will once more reign over London.
- Maybe they'll bring some friendly bombs for Slough.

!stopmuskspam

How many of the people pearl clutching didn’t even notice we just overthrew Syria?
But I guess white western countries are supposed to be off limits.
- Hmm, let’s see, one country was ruled by a murderous dictator using chemical weapons against his own people and crushing dissidents to a pulp in secret prisons. The other is a mature, functioning democracy with rule of law and a free press.
  Yes, yes, I can see how you think that’s exactly the same.
  
  The chemical weapons claim has debunked many times since the claim was made by intelligence orgs, and the white helmets exposed as a western regime change operation.
  Which country is the “mature, functioning democracy with rule of law and free press”? Would that be the UK, which is crushing pro-Palestine protestors, arresting journalists for criticism of Israel, arming genocide, and participating in CIA torture black sites? The country that has openly declared it will defy ICC arrest warrants?
