He must be kicking himself that he hadn’t changed his algorithms until after the UK election

coriolusn.bsky.social•220 days ago

Sorry to hear about your literal Stalinist government, which I assume is currently engineering a famine in Cornwall.

aladinsane.bsky.social•221 days ago

The man is a knob, but I would suggest that you all listen to Dead Ringers on BBC sounds

Poor old Elon will not be happy - and no one will take him seriously after listening g to that impression

cheshiredoglady.bsky.social•221 days ago

It's laugh out loud funny. I really want someone to tweet it to Husk.

aladinsane.bsky.social•221 days ago

I can’t - I closed my account

But I am certain some one will

artemida63.bsky.social•221 days ago

He’s been doing this all over Europe. He’s the most dangerous man alive

laikax.bsky.social•219 days ago

Is there a simple solution to that? 😉

hugo-lage.bsky.social•221 days ago

Unbelievable.

petemarchetto.bsky.social•221 days ago

On his 14/11 'Wow', does he believe that? Then he's a know-nothing, which is dangerous. Or does he know it's false? In which case he's promoting disinformation, which is dangerous. Maybe the first thing to work out is whether the man is a fool or a fanatic. That may dictate any response.

petemarchetto.bsky.social•220 days ago

An unfortunately good point.

caulfieldl.bsky.social•220 days ago

Every response is like this
Why doesn't he leave X.
Labour had great messaging in GE.
What happened?

caulfieldl.bsky.social•220 days ago

Labour MPs should all leave X.
I don't understand why they stay!

hekatehades.bsky.social•221 days ago

He really is a real life Bond villain.

deadair.bsky.social•220 days ago

Musk isn’t a good ally for Trump. This will be obviously. He’s not strategic. He’s unwell.

bodendave.bsky.social•220 days ago

Why are you giving him a platform here? Many of us left so we don't have to read this kind of stuff! Most of what he says is total batshit. I left Twitter, not going to buy a Tesla and have no plans to go to Mars or have a chip in my brain.

elsietobes.bsky.social•220 days ago

What's his interest in us? What do I need to prepare for?

josh.politics.co.uk•221 days ago

"Musk’s views on British politics, and in particular prime minister Keir Starmer, could have considerable ramifications for UK-US diplomacy given his proximity to the president-elect and cultural influence over the wider 'MAGA' (Make America Great Again) movement."

johnalex.bsky.social•221 days ago

About time the UK ditched American manufactured goods and services, especially Musks Micky mouse Tesla vehicles.

liztollfree.bsky.social•221 days ago

Musk will have to get a wriggle on though. The crash and burn with hm and Trump won't take long.

d-moore.bsky.social•220 days ago

I think the 80 year old cheeseburgler will burn 1st.
Musk is far more useful to Putin.

ilikecaketoo.bsky.social•220 days ago

Suspect you’re right. Trump is not the one with the power, just the title. Scary.

ledbass.bsky.social•221 days ago

Fuck you, Elon!

Keep pushing and you might get an arrest order in any country in the world

Billionaires should not exist!

tetra2.bsky.social•221 days ago

Go ELON!

shambler.bsky.social•220 days ago

He will, soon enough.

mmsuk.bsky.social•218 days ago

He also claimed, in the Sumner, that uk was heading for a civil war...

johnnieburdette.bsky.social•221 days ago

Musk probably isn’t going to make things much worse than Trump’s first term.

Trump slapped sanctions on the UK, as well as others.

ajlnflk.bsky.social•221 days ago

UK-US diplomacy should already be being seriousy re-thought. It should have been since 2016 (for reasons on both sides of the Atlantic). The US can easily become the greatest threat to our independence and liberties. How do we prevent or forestall that?

weeziz.bsky.social•220 days ago

He seriously needs to fuck all the way off.

lalabiso.bsky.social•220 days ago

He's been doing the same with Italy.

robert-laycock.bsky.social•221 days ago

If I was a multibillionaire I would employ a team of minions to write these tweets. It's more efficient.

itsascam.bsky.social•220 days ago

The richest man in the world, who runs multiple large businesses, seems to have allot of time on his hands.

maggier.bsky.social•221 days ago

All that non interference in UK politics by a forriner

matthewclifton.bsky.social•221 days ago

He’s a dangerous individual who is actively trying to shape the World to his warped view. The impact Musk had on Twitter certainly impacted the US Presidential election result. We can only hope someone stops this lunatic.

transatlanticalison.com•221 days ago

I hope that account that was tracking Musks jet is on here…I’d love to share it and make it as visible as possible. Just to piss him off..

transatlanticalison.com•220 days ago

Oh that must piss musk off 😂

smithmichaelw.bsky.social•221 days ago

So basically he has got a new job and is spending all his time on social media?

podgyfingers.bsky.social•221 days ago

Is Musk parroting old Afrikaner prejudices against Britain in his current rants or am I applying my own prejudices?

bar-a-ess.bsky.social•220 days ago

And, what Musk is up to and how X has become a cesspit is why I've moved here. I feel cleansed.

jamessteel2008.bsky.social•221 days ago

Space Karen is unhinged and spreading his nonsense about UK politics.

cheshiredoglady.bsky.social•221 days ago

I read that a number of UK companies are now refusing to buy Teslas as fleet vehicles. Excellent news.

jamessteel2008.bsky.social•221 days ago

That’s what I like to hear 👏

pandora3336.bsky.social•220 days ago

Space Karen, that has made my day 🤣🤣🤣

bungle1234.bsky.social•221 days ago

I have a feeling that Trump will try and aid the election of Nigel Farage in future elections. He’ll fight to have his puppet in Europe. Elons rhetoric seems to suggest he’s trying to help. They’ll be an increase in vitriol for the foreseeable future I am sure.

ncg213.bsky.social•221 days ago

oitappin.bsky.social•221 days ago

Is this because we won't allow his deathtrap toaster on wheels to be driven here?

johnnieburdette.bsky.social•221 days ago

If anyone is wondering why #ElonMusk has never criticised the lack of free speech in China, well, this is how far his hypocrisy stretches.

misshavisham.bsky.social•221 days ago

lynxxiv.bsky.social•221 days ago

Starmer is not far removed from Stalin. Certainly his impulses regarding journalists perceived as being pro-Palestinian …

monkeyfunk.bsky.social•221 days ago

Any examples of "his impulses" impacting journalists?

beady999.bsky.social•220 days ago

Writing as a usual Tory voter, I’d actually question just what you really know about Stalin?
Just asking…

paolathomas.com•221 days ago

He’s emboldened by his success in rigging the US election to interfere globally. Also making remarks against Trudeau in Canada.

jasmic.bsky.social•220 days ago

He must be getting increasingly annoyed that we still haven't had that civil war he was confidently predicting when the rioters were being rounded up and jailed for rioting.
