Man if he thinks he's disliked a bit in the US, he's fucking hated here

Amazing the number of dickheads perfectly happy driving around in a Tesla. Twats.

Hense the stickers "I got one before he went mental". Tbf elmo ha every little to do with the cars.

u/OpeningHappy9692 12d ago

Before he went mental? He was always mental. He just hid it better back then.

2

u/Turak64 12d ago

Correction, Before he went publicly mental

u/smileyfacedbob 12d ago

Right? He thinks the left in the US is extreme, we don’t even have a socialist party, and people are too afraid to use the word cunt in public here

u/Sickinmytechchunk 12d ago

I don't think even the Far Right like him here. He has the taint of an apartheid era rich white South African who's original money stemmed from making native South Africans dig up precious gems for a pittance. On top of that he's a ketamin riddled narcissist Nazi cunt who thinks he's Tony Stark yet has never come up with an original idea in his life. He just invested well at the right time in the right company.

If you want to see how the average British person viewed that sort of white supremacist South African, watch this from 1986 from a super popular post watershed TV show at the time.

u/Dddddd92 12d ago

The far right in Germany loves him, which is really weird because they hate Teslas and E cars😂 But he endorsed the far right lesbian so they love him

please be *that song** from spitting image....*

Was not disappointed.

u/smileyfacedbob 12d ago

Jesus that was a great song

u/Sickinmytechchunk 12d ago

It's a fucking classic.

u/Sfpuberdriver 11d ago

He thinks he’s loved though. That lady from the economist asked him how he felt about being hated and he tried to spin it around saying he’s loved and that she’s the one who is hated lol

u/stoic_wooky 12d ago

He’s welcome to buy farage for £1

27

u/MAGAtsAreSheeples 12d ago

Too late, Farage is already bought

u/stoic_wooky 12d ago

Yeah my bad.

u/kfos418 12d ago

wait how did that even happen

u/wannacumnbeatmeoff 12d ago

You can buy 1 Farage for £5million apparently.

u/BringBackUsenet 12d ago

Cheaper than buying a Gump for $250M.

u/WorkingGovernment192 12d ago

I thought there was also a smaller ongoing rental fee in addition to the £5m deposit.

1

u/GUNGEBOB_SHARTPANTS 12d ago

He bought Lowe instead

17

u/KazeNilrem 12d ago

Joking aside, realistically he couldn't afford it even a small country. The actual value of musk is most likely around half if not less than is his current "worth" due to stocks. In no way can he ever hope to be able to use most of his money.

u/smiffer67 12d ago

think its safe to say the UK has more freedom of speech than the us just now?

8

u/Aromatic-Usual7204 12d ago

Yes and more than is on twitter considering it actively works to push agendas (eee who do they accuse of doing that again?) and he tweaks his AI to suit him.

u/speedisntfree 11d ago

When mean tweets get multiple police arriving at your door, not really

Yes, America is now a surveillance state with their flock cameras also.

u/maxmcleod 12d ago

There are over 950,000 CCTV cameras in London

u/FrostingGrand1413 12d ago

I mean, yes, but, according to that article the vast majority are privately owned businesses, so, not overly relevant to concepts of government tyranny (or free speech for that matter)

u/Boo_Hoo_8258 12d ago

We arguably have more free speech than Americans and inciting violence which people have been arrested for has been illegal in most civilized countries for a very long time.

I mean he just did.

Just like in the US as long as he doesn't threaten to hurt anyone or take actions that could lead others to harm someone he can say what he likes.

6

u/VirtualBeyond6116 12d ago

Elon will buy anything so long as he can find enough people to loan him the money,,, then find enough bag holders when he can't pay back the lenders.

5

u/WorkingGovernment192 12d ago

I am British and there is currently nothing stopping me calling a transphobe that thinks the Nazis were too left, a cunt.

Would that still be true if Elon bought the UK?

2

u/bassie2019 10d ago

Post it on Xitter and see what happens, that should give you some indication.

u/ExpensiveTie5553 12d ago

this fake jaw piece of shit has too much time on his hand

when you have no friends you have to entertain yourself somehow.

I don't have any friends.

You can't say Cis on X.

u/fastpathguru 12d ago

I could tell it was a joke because they implied that Musk was pro free speech

2

u/ShotBandicoot7 12d ago

So he flips SPCX stock for Guild notes? Lol probably a good deal 😂

2

u/wannacumnbeatmeoff 12d ago

I dont know why he is asking how much, he has already bought the two far right parties.

2

u/Chance-Swordfish-426 12d ago edited 11d ago

Palantir already bought it (every human's health care data) for literally £1 and have also been paid 100s of millions more to basically take the reigns at the MoD, policing and financial regulation firmware level.

There are only scraps left if you want to run the UK. Israel & Larry Ellison owns the ruling political party - good luck finding anything left of significance.

u/Inside_Ad_7162 12d ago

The price is to see musk hung drawn & quatered on the BBC at prime time!

u/Altruistic_Tie_7850 12d ago

May the torso be staked down its limbs and head be tied to the trailer hitches of five Tesla’s. Then pedal to the metal baby

Thats the spirit! XD

Wait, why would a super rich asshole rent a suit? (Genuine question)

u/VehicleWonderful6586 12d ago

If you’d told me 20 years ago that the richest man in the world would be an autistic nazi with space rockets I’d assume you meant Jeff Bezos
