What he wants to do, is fuck the fuck off.
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
see, he is better than putin!
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.
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.
Yay, no X in the UK soon! UK will so be liberated.
I want to liberate Musk's body from his oppressive brain.
Elon Musk should jam soup cans up his ass till they come out his mouth.
✅ Yes 99%
⏹️ No 1%
Why hasn't anyone tried to off him yet?
Elon Musk should shove cactuses up his ass utill he cant fit any more.
✅ Yes 100%
❌ No 0%
How long till the results are calculated?
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”)
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
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
Brit here. What a complete wankpuffin. He should focus on liberating himself from his own stupidity.
"wankpuffin" going to have to use that one.
Excited to see Elon Musk start paling around with King Charlies and talking about a return to Absolute Monarchy in a few weeks.
third grade troll
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.
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.
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.
Wanker
Meanwhile he's fine with Putin, even has chats over the phone with him.
...never seen him tweet anything bad about him infact.
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.
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."
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?”
How... kind of him... always nice to see the richest man in the world having fuck all to do but shitpost.
Why do I feel like we're about to do a whole Third Reich thing?
This one will be the Fourth Reich.
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.
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
