Summary

UK Health Minister Andrew Gwynne criticized Elon Musk for focusing on British politics, urging him to prioritize American issues.

Musk’s criticism of Labour leader Keir Starmer over child sexual exploitation policies included accusing him of being “complicit in the RAPE OF BRITAIN.”

Labour pushed back, noting past local and national inquiries into abuse, including the 2014 Rotherham report.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting called Musk’s comments “misjudged.”

Musk’s support for jailed far-right activist Tommy Robinson has further fueled controversy.

        Please, I beg you — South Africa has enough problems as it is. Can he not go to Mars instead? He has always been very enthusiastic about the planet and he would be safe from the “woke virus” he so dreads — a win for everyone?

      Hey! Don’t try and palm him off on us.
      Just because you took him when South Africa didn’t want him it doesn’t mean we are gonna fall for it!

      Edit: Actually, fuck that, send him to Japan. Let Nintendo deal with him for a bit. They are already rich assholes he can’t make them any worse.

    Maybe stick to buying companies, pretend that you founded them, market them well, drive it into the ground, then repeat the process.

      I keep having to explain this.

      The amount of delta v required to put something into the sun is extremely high and unnecessary. We just need to put him outside earth’s orbit and the problem will be solved.

      What are we afraid of? Some far future civilization will find his corpse in heliocentric orbit and revive him?

      None of the people who should hear it will understand it. The people who understand it didn’t support it. Sigh, this is our lives for the next 4+ years I suppose. Unless player 2 joins the game again.
