    But why would Musk care about English politics? (And after his experience in the US politics…)

      I think that he wrongly believes, because of his self-created social media bubble, that there's a like-minded majority of people everywhere who want white people back on top of a hierarchy, and if he can just tip things a little bit he can make it happen and he be a great hero for leading it.

      I hate to point to people's family but since he has seemingly doubled down on their views I think it's ok to point out his grandparents were pro-Nazi in Canada and moved to South Africa BECAUSE OF apartheid. It's not surprising if he was raised with some strange extreme views

      I wish Musk wouldn't meddle in politics. He's not very good at it.

          He got that before getting political though.

        The UK is arresting people for social media posts at a staggering rate, and has long given up on free speech as policy. Additionally, the UK Labour party sent staffers to the US to campaign for the US Democrats, a blatantly illegal interference in US politics.

        The UK is no longer a functioning democracy but more like a failed state clinging to mass censorship while trying to prevent complete collapse.

        For these reasons there should be a political change.

          "You're in a fundamental situation here where, whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you," said Musk. "You either fight back or you die."

          Racist hate-monger.
