Elon Musk is on the warpath against the UK, criticising mass migration and a supposedly censorious government.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 8, 2024
His recent posts on X, which have racked up millions of views, have referred to UK authorities as the “woke Stasi” and joked that the UK will give the death penalty for social media posts. He also claimed the country has a two-tiered justice system which treats Muslims with more leniency and predicted an upcoming civil war.
British lawmakers are blaming X and its owner for helping spread hateful and violent rhetoric behind ongoing riots, and they hope to summon him over the matter. As Musk would say, “Wow.”

Musk is just stating the obvious.When common people cannot express their legitimate concerns over Muslim immigration, you have entered totalitarian territory.
