Elon Musk shares fake news about England rioters being sent to Falklands

Elon Musk shared a fake Telegraph article claiming Keir Starmer was considering sending far-right rioters to “emergency detainment camps” in the Falklands.

Musk deleted his post after about 30 minutes but a screenshot captured by Politics.co.uk suggests it had garnered nearly two million views before it was deleted.

In it, Musk shared the image posted by the co-leader of the far-right group Britain First, Ashlea Simon, which she captioned with, “we’re all being deported to the Falklands”.

The persecution fetish conservatives have is just incredible.

Well, I guess when you’re a psychopathic narcissist it’s hard to imagine that everybody else isn’t one too, so it’s understandable that they think we want to put them in concentration camps because that’s what they want to do to us.

The earth should really start just domain blocking X. Nothing of value ever happens there.

Where we should really start is yeeting Musk and his supporters out of the fucking solar system (shooting them into the sun would be a waste of perfectly good delta-v)

Or just give them submarines. Perhaps they’d be good people deep down.

He could pay to go there. He’s all horny for space anyway. So go. Don’t let the door hit you on the ass on your way out.

satanmat ,

So many points 🤣🤣🤣🤣 for knowing delta-v

On the other hand… do you want them getting out there to infect the rest of the galaxy?

Who said anything about giving them supplies?

I’m sure the free market will solve this! (yes, /s)

In 3001 (sequel to 2001) they were able to revive Frank Poole. And in three body problem they thought they could revive just his head — I’m NOT taking any chances!!

🤣🤣🤣

In old days we would have admins block sites on their networks. I guess this time everyone looks up to the government to do it

xmunk ,

The issue is that reasonable people become irrational with anonymity and the culture Musk has built up on X feeds right into that. I think X is a social danger that people are unable to safely consume without being extremized.

“Just a joke” is always the refrain when people call out this brand of nonsense. Drives me mad

Haha! Isn’t spreading misinformation and propaganda hilarious! LOL!

SlopppyEngineer ,

The government in the UK should buy some space in the Sun and publish an article how the convicted pedophile Musk is found to have a torture chamber in the German Tesla factory and that kind of shit. When Musk inevitably goes ballistic just say it was a joke, then repeat.

Shut up nerd

It’s like when people say “no offense but” and then continue with something offensive. Just because you say no offense, it doesn’t make it not offensive.

With all due respect, you’re a piece of shit

Chaosppe ,

He seems to forget that a joke has to be funny.

Madnessx9 ,

This guy is irresponsible with the power he holds. I hope the UK removes access to his failing social media platform

AFKBRBChocolate ,

Need a running list of all the confirmed falsehoods Musk has personally shared. Seems to be increasing.

Someone had one but they gave up on it nearly two years ago

He’s using it to distract from the videos of him being shit on while he climaxes and cries that came out.

Did I miss something here? What is this of which you speak?

carl_dungeon ,

Definitely not fake news, that’s for sure!!!

Look, if you make something up, you’re going to have to do better than kinkshaming. There’s nothing wrong with scat play if that’s what you’re into.

carl_dungeon ,

Sure but is that what musk wants people to think he’s into?

Squeezer ,

The persistent bullshit cuntery is exhausting. This feels like a tactic, trumpian relentless attention grabbing. Fuck him.

It’s based on creating the same kind of environment that exists in Russia. Everything is fake, nothing is real, everyone lies.

It’s really easy to control people when they feel that objective truths are no longer possible.
