    Hey Iran, Elon Musk is now a legitimate military target.

      According to the West, there are no legitimate targets on our side. Any and all attacks on Western military targets are considered terrorism.

      It is is beyond ridiculous. People allegedly attacking a US Airbase in the UK (maybe just stealing diesel) are called terrorists for attacking a military target. It is absolutely bonkers.

        Yeah I don’t think that bullshit is flying as well as it used to though. It’s too obvious who is instigating, and more people have been paying closer attention and learning about the history of the Middle East and the foreign policy of western governments. I’m encountering it more and more from people whom I would not expect it, and I get around.

    I like how Musk magically joins the government every time there is an election that Trump needs to cheat on. Then leaves like 4-6 months after the election is over. Probably just trying to make sure he doesn’t get arrested by Democrats for all the illegal shit he is doing

    Let me guess, the warfare of the future demands lots of Tesla power walls and a heavy reliance on starlink…
