Elon Musk says ‘civil war is inevitable’ as UK rocked by farright riots. He’s part of the problem
"Social media has played a big role in fueling the anti-immigration riots engulfing towns and cities in the United Kingdom.
And agitator-in-chief Elon Musk is not sitting on the sidelines.
The Tesla chief executive and owner of X posted to the platform Sunday that “civil war is inevitable” in response to a post blaming the violent demonstrations on the effects of “mass migration and open borders.”
On Monday, a spokesperson for UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer addressed Musk’s comment, telling reporters “there’s no justification for that.”
But Musk is digging his heels in. On Tuesday, he labeled Starmer #TwoTierKier in an apparent reference to a debunked claim spread by conspiracy theorists and populist politicians such as Nigel Farage that “two-tier policing” means right-wing protests are dealt with more forcefully than those organized by the left. He also likened Britain to the Soviet Union for attempting to restrict offensive speech on social media."
