Summary
Elon Musk sparked controversy after criticizing U.K. officials on social media, accusing Safeguarding Minister Jess Phillips of being a “rape genocide apologist” and calling for Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s removal over child grooming gang prosecutions.
Musk also suggested “liberating” Britain in a poll.
Starmer defended his record as former director of public prosecutions, condemning Musk for spreading misinformation and fueling far-right threats.
U.K. Health Minister Wes Streeting labeled Musk’s comments a “disgraceful smear.”
Hey America, NOBODY WANTS TO BE LIKE YOU
WE DO NOT WANT YOU TO “LIBERATE” US
WE DO NOT WANT YOU TO MASS EXODUS AND MOVE HERE
LEAVE THE REST OF THE WORLD THE FUCK ALONE
Many Americans don’t to be like us either, but we seem to be losing.
Well you’ve allowed your country to liken leftism to weakness, and expecting the rest of the world to deal with it. This one is on American leftists just as much as it is on your insane right wing group.
Well I was born well after McCarthyism destroyed all semblance of good-faith discussion of leftist politics, and the current world order is not just America’s fault. Rupert Murdoch has been one of the most influential figures in that regard, his propaganda apparatus has pushed the entire Anglosphere right.
aaaaaand also pretty please fight climate change.
