In a lifetime of insanity from Elon Musk, this might just top it all. Gargantuan recklessness and stupidity and cruelty. How is this country still affiliated with this man? How is he still operating here?!

Directly inciting people against the President and Vice President. How does he not have a knock from the FBI looking to ask him some questions?

One of the most dangerous statements by a public figure, let alone a man who can send this directly to his 350 million active users. This better absolutely pick up steam. This cannot be allowed to go unchecked.

Capital runs the show, fascists just casually joking about assassination attempts on the government that keeps them in business.

We're definitely in one of those times…

The "plausible deniability" with Musk and his ilk is just "oh he's just peddling a conspiracy theory" which is fucked up in its own right with him owning a top social media company.

But if this isn't a nudge/nudge/wink/wink of a call-to-arms, I dunno what is. He's putting this out there in the hopes that someone will change their targets from Trump to Biden or Harris.

Straight up dangerous rhetoric. It doesn't matter what his intention is here. All it takes is the wrong weirdo seeing his post as some kind of instruction.

It should also be noted for everyone to know: Musk also deleted the account of the person who attempted to assassinate Trump this afternoon once it was discovered through his tweets that he primarily supports Republican politicians

Not the first time he casually incites violence. Probably won't be the last until there actual consequences.

Isn't saying this about the president illegal in America?

No. To say you are planning to kill the President is illegal, but it's not really illegal to say, 'Hey, why isn't someone going to kill the President.' Now a normal person probably would get a visit if they publicly said even if there was no real legal consequences just to see what was up and probably would be monitored in ways they didn't realize for a period of time. But when you're the richest man in the world who has lots of government contracts the most you will get is a call, if that

We use to break up companies with too much control over vital national interests. Now it's fine for one crazy dude to control multiple sectors. What could possibly go wrong?
