Elon Musk has deleted an image he shared on X, formerly Twitter, which promoted a conspiracy theory about the UK building “detainment camps” on the Falkland Islands for rioters.
The image - which was faked to look like it had come from the Daily Telegraph website - had been posted by the co-leader of the far-right Britain First party, Ashlea Simon, though it had appeared elsewhere before she shared it.
Mr Musk’s post was viewed more than 1.7 million times before it was removed - with Ms Simon’s post briefly tagged with a note reading “this story does not exist” before it too was removed.
It is the latest in a series of controversial interventions from the tech billionaire since the unrest began, some of which have been directly condemned by the prime minister.
At this rate it won’t be anthropogenic climate change or the associated risks that will kill us.
It’ll be war and chaos sparked by some AI generated misinformation peddled by morons like Elol and these other braindead wastes.
I mean I don’t think the morons would direct or consume the misinformation if we were not overgrown on the petri dish.
These fuckers would rather see the world destroyed than pay their fair share of taxes.
True. No taxes for them in that case. No food either, after a while.
