Summary

UK Health Minister Andrew Gwynne criticized Elon Musk for focusing on British politics, urging him to prioritize American issues.

Musk’s criticism of Labour leader Keir Starmer over child sexual exploitation policies included accusing him of being “complicit in the RAPE OF BRITAIN.”

Labour pushed back, noting past local and national inquiries into abuse, including the 2014 Rotherham report.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting called Musk’s comments “misjudged.”

Musk’s support for jailed far-right activist Tommy Robinson has further fueled controversy.

No, no, please stay out of our politics, too.

Yep, that’s what I was thinking. Go 💩post on your dumb bird app, mooch from your employees, and do enough drugs to od for all I care, stay out of politics you twit

He can go back to South Africa & take his politics with him.

Please, I beg you — South Africa has enough problems as it is. Can he not go to Mars instead? He has always been very enthusiastic about the planet and he would be safe from the “woke virus” he so dreads — a win for everyone?

He came through Canada, they should have to deal with him first.

Hey! Don’t try and palm him off on us.
Just because you took him when South Africa didn’t want him it doesn’t mean we are gonna fall for it!

Edit: Actually, fuck that, send him to Japan. Let Nintendo deal with him for a bit. They are already rich assholes he can’t make them any worse.

Thats a devastating burn to America as well as Elmo tbh.

None of the people who should hear it will understand it. The people who understand it didn’t support it. Sigh, this is our lives for the next 4+ years I suppose. Unless player 2 joins the game again.

You can't park here, mate.

What a clown! A rich one, but still a clown!

Maybe he should stick to emerald mines

I think it might be best if he'd just stick to playing Diablo.

Better yet… fuck off entirely?

I like your ideas, do you have a pamphlet where I can learn more.

Nastybutler@lemmy.world on 03 Jan 2025 23:26 next collapse

Maybe stick to buying companies, pretend that you founded them, market them well, drive it into the ground, then repeat the process.

Gork@lemm.ee on 03 Jan 2025 23:52 next collapse

Can we just blast him into the Sun already?

djsp@lemmy.world on 04 Jan 2025 00:19 next collapse

Since the US election I have been hoping for a fallout with Trump as Musk’s Icarus moment, but I would be willing to forego the symbolism. I like your direct approach to the matter.

i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca on 04 Jan 2025 03:55 collapse

I keep having to explain this.

The amount of delta v required to put something into the sun is extremely high and unnecessary. We just need to put him outside earth’s orbit and the problem will be solved.

What are we afraid of? Some far future civilization will find his corpse in heliocentric orbit and revive him?

US, UK, DE… Fucker’s going for world domination.

TachyonTele@lemm.ee on 04 Jan 2025 00:28 collapse

After buying Trump he finally realized money talks. Im glad he’s been too dumb to figure that out until now.

CaptainHowdy@lemm.ee on 04 Jan 2025 01:30 next collapse

Can he instead just stick a gun in his mouth?

Wogi@lemmy.world on 04 Jan 2025 02:55 collapse

He should shove it up his ass.

I don’t want it to be quick and painless for him

Drusas@fedia.io on 04 Jan 2025 07:31 next collapse

Like anyone can tell him what to do.

ParadoxSeahorse@lemmy.world on 04 Jan 2025 11:42 next collapse

Maybe every time he tweets at them, they should just delete their twitter accounts

This isn’t news.
