Yay, no X in the UK soon! UK will so be liberated.
United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
I want to liberate Musk's body from his oppressive brain.
Imagine that! Wannabe dictator asking whether or not they should invade a sovereign country! He's truly a good person because he asked his people if they should invade instead of flat out invading!
/s
I'm also positive that the pole was representative of the US population as a whole and not just his idiot supporters.
And we can trust the reliability of the data, given the sterling reputation of Twitter and Musk himself, of course.
Excited to see Elon Musk start paling around with King Charlies and talking about a return to Absolute Monarchy in a few weeks.
Wanker
My bins weren't collected last week, now we've got snow in them and all the cardboard's all wet and soggy. If that is not evidence of a tyrannical dictatorship, then I don't know what is.
Adrian Binnmann will be straight over as soon as you let that nice billionaire run the country.
I’m a Dane living in the UK. This is beginner level Trump/musk idiocy. Denmark is currently wrestling with the US demanding a piece of their kingdom (and yes, Denmark is a democracy, so using the word kingdom may seem a bit anachronistic, but in this case we are talking about Greenland, which is an autonomous region of the Danish commonwealth, so the official term is “kingdom”)
third grade troll
How... kind of him... always nice to see the richest man in the world having fuck all to do but shitpost.
So between this and trumps statements on Canada are we getting the commonwealth back together? I could go for another burning down of a white house.
Let's do an internet poll about invading another country.
If it was a 13 year old kid I could understand it, but this is musk
Functionally the same
13 year old kid is a ceiling for Elmo when it comes to politics
Jesus. Who are the numbnut 62% who chose Yes?
The people still remaining on X will skew numbnut.
Adrian Dittman 1, Adrian Dittman 2,(...), Adrian Dittman 8573.
Lol
Mostly bots
Must have learned his lesson after having his "step down now?" poll go not in his favor.
Every person who ever said the word "cuck" in public with zero irony.
Given his role in the upcoming cabinet, it's no doubt going to be very cost-efficient and won't increase the size of either government.
Maybe NHS will make profit for the first time!
Yeah, invade it and add it back to the EU as a vassal state, undo that Brexit.
Maybe ~~Putin~~ Musk should launch a special military operation in ~~Ukraine~~ Britain to ~~de-nazify~~ de-tyrranize them. How kind and noble that would be.
Brit here. What a complete wankpuffin. He should focus on liberating himself from his own stupidity.
"wankpuffin" going to have to use that one.
Elon Musk should jam soup cans up his ass till they come out his mouth.
✅ Yes 99%
⏹️ No 1%
How long till the results are calculated?
Why hasn't anyone tried to off him yet?
Elon Musk should shove cactuses up his ass utill he cant fit any more.
✅ Yes 100%
❌ No 0%
On one hand, fuck that fucking assclown.
On the other hand, my god that would be one hell of a comeback in historical terms: former colony invades and ~~colonizes~~ liberates former rulers
Not that the empire still exists of course, so what you're actually invading is the land that used to belong to a society that no longer exists and a different society is there now and is unhappy about having to deal with this nonsense.
I genuinely can't believe what is happening. What timeline are we living in?
Maybe it's time we designated Musk as a terrorist?
I genuinely can’t believe what is happening
Then you should pay more attention to history...
And I don't mean that as an insult, all this shit is reruns of shit we've already been thru. WW2 had a large push by wealthy American businessmen to not just abstain from the war, but they advocated for joining the Axis back then.
Capitalism and fascism go hand in hand, the ultra wealthy will always want fascism because fascist leaders love bomb them to get their wealth and power behind the movement.
We all need to understand this shit so we can understand what worked last time and why it didn't work permanently
