    His family made their fortune because of Apartheid. It makes sense that he’d sympathize with the occupiers.

    I think he wants Ukraine to fold so he can peddle his shitty inventions to Russia without pesky sanctions getting in the way, whilst styling himself as a great diplomat.

      That he disabled Starlink to thwart a Ukrainian offensive already showed as much.

      You’re giving him way too much credit calling them “his inventions”. He didn’t invent shit

    “Stop resisting and just sympathize” is also how Elon Musk got ten kids.

    Do humanity a double service and fly to Mars.

    And stay there.

    This is, was this POS thought all along and is another proof for his total lack of empathy and inability to think ahead.

    The world should sympathise with the idea of sending Muskrat with an one way ticket to Mars.

    Can we start a movement to incentivize one politician or someone with a lot of representation behind them to simple tell the bird brain to “sit down, shut up and stay still”?

            That is just too quick and painless. Have it seized and baned from flying until further inspection. Rinse, repeat, at least 50 times. Charge him fees for having the plane parked at whatever airport it may be at. Then have the airplane banned of ever flying again.

        Why does this quote seem… Inaccurate? I’ve seen Muskrat speak a few times and he’s seemed to have a basic understanding of the English language? Never heard him discuss the flower of youth?

        Yes. I advise him (Zelensky - ed.) not to send the flower of Ukrainian youth to die in the trenches… I think he should meet Putin in person. The reason why I proposed some kind of truce or peace a year ago was that I predicted almost exactly what would happen, namely: many people would die due to the lack of tangible changes on the front line and the loss of the flower of Ukrainian and Russian youth," he said

          It seems to be a website which translates news from Non-English-News Outlets in English. The original article seems to be this

          I listened to Lex Friedman’s podcast with Elon Musk as guest, an he used that expression several times. It seems like it’s more like a slavic expression. So I don’t know, perhaps he got it straight from Putin or perhaps he’s just deliberately using an expression that resonates more with Russians and Ukrainians.

          Normally it links to the Original Article when you crosspost, here it was inside the Text body of the post. I also don’t know why it was crossposted like that

    Ukrainian security and world order depends on Elon Musk shutting the fuck up. If he doesn’t, his money won’t stop motivated governments from shutting him down.
