Fuck OFF Elon Musk

1000 replies

Elon Musk appeared via video link today at Tommy Robinson's Racist March wittering on about woke mind viruses and calling for the dissolution of parliament.

All I really want to say is FUCK OFF ELON MUSK.

@noblegiraffe I’m amazed no one pulled the plug! There’s free speech and there’s uncalled for interference. Agreed - Musk isn’t part of our politics. As for idiots buying his cars!? Why?

Yapper73 · 14/09/2025 11:56

OP what are immigrants personally doing to you? To you specifically?

GabrielsOboe · 14/09/2025 11:57

noblegiraffe · 14/09/2025 10:25

So actually the enemy of your enemy is not your ally after all, and in fact you are actively choosing to support Musk and Trump interfering in our politics merely because you agree with them.

Again?

I am very supportive of Musk, in particular, expressing an interest in UK politics.

Why, because he is rightly often critical of the Labour Government.

I hope that is clear enough for you.

'I'm in my 50''s and barely recognize the Country I've grown up in, it's getting worse month by month.'

Me neither. All the racist flag waving, the misogyny and hatred being whipped up by the likes of Yaxley-Lennon. The people who hero worship Trump for some odd reason. Not a country I recognise.

I recognise it.

the 80’s football hooliganism demographic has found a new cause.

same white men. Same chanting, new slogans. Same “them and us”, who wants to come and fight me for it…

I can't believe how some people really can't see what the future holds for this Country if something isn't done about the constant boat loads of unknown people coming over here and taking off of us, and in turn affecting our way of life. The NHS is on its knees for a starters, education is suffering, the list is endless.
I'm in my 50''s and barely recognize the Country I've grown up in, it's getting worse month by month.

I'm not at all racist, I've friends from all walks of life and colours, but those friends contribute to society, integrate with our society, respect English culture and want to live amongst us in peace.

I can’t believe people can’t see the reason for public services being on their knees isn’t asylum seekers.

You're living in cloud cuckoo land,

Can you explain your take on why Elon musk should have any influence in the UK.
America isn't exactly without problems of which British problems are miniscule in comparison.
Ketamine head should stfu.

So you got nothing. Why am I not at all surprised.

ETA my own research tells me your research is rubbish.

Now stop your gaslighting missy and get on doing your own research.

It’s an image thing. They want to cultivate the righteous good samaritan image: “look what a good person I am, helping people from all corners of the globe”
The usual virtue signalling idiots. If someone asked them to take some of these boat people into their own homes, they would run a mile.

Of course they'd run a mile, I bet pound to a penny they don't live right in the mix of intimidating illegal immigrants.

No one says he should influence the UK, but he's got an opinion and has every right to voice it. Just because he's not British, it doesn't mean he can't see how this Country is going to the dogs. The whole world can see!

Nagginthenag · 14/09/2025 12:09

OneFairMintFawn, I don't know why I'm surprised at your attitude - demeaning language (missy, bae 🙄), repetition of fallacies, no cogent arguments or well researched sources. Just plopping about with accusations, unverified 'facts' etc.

Mustbethat · 14/09/2025 12:12

OneFairMintFawn · 14/09/2025 12:06

Oh dear dear dear. Rattled.

Well if I’m making you question you sanity and your own powers of reasoning with a couple of posts on mumsnet- you can’t be that sure of your “facts”.

Fuck OFF Elon Musk

WHY are these Americans so invested in whipping up the right in the UK?

They tell so many blatant lies about us on Fox News/Twitter etc.

It's almost as if they're in cahoots with Farage to get Reform in so they can fuck over our high standards of cars/food, privatise our healthcare system and sell us firearms so their companies can make even more money out of us 🤔

They wouldn't, would they?

Yes they feckin would.

I do find it hilarious when an American tells me I don't have free speech and my country is now a Muslim state though.

No, dear - we just have laws that make it illegal to encourage a hate crime and I'm sorry to disappoint but I haven't even seen a brown face today.

The 6-8% of Muslims in the country are bringing us good snacks, our weekend curries and all the fresh samosas we can eat. Hardly a takeover!

It's not like we're being invaded, like when the Romans turned up and forced Christianity upon us. Nothing that bad!!

Do take your fascism and fuck right off.

👏👏👏

It really isn’t. It’s actually leaning more and more to the right over time. I’ve been on MN for nearly 10 years now and it has changed quite significantly in that time.

Been here since once the beginning and I see the same.

MrsSkylerWhite · 14/09/2025 12:18

OneFairMintFawn · 13/09/2025 22:08

Comment a bit too school ground for me.

What does that mean?

Supports of YL claimed 1 million+ marchers. Police reported 110,000.

School ground?

You know that if you put every single asylum seeker from the asylum accommodation into Wembley Stadium it wouldn’t be half full, yes? And that asylum seekers make up only 13% of immigration, with the small boats being less than 2%of it? And that net immigration halved last year?
You are focusing on the wrong thing. As @Ratafia says, immigration isn’t the reason for things going to shit. Underinvestment and the increasing inequality between the 1z and the rest of us are what’s causing the problem.

Because he’s not a citizen so our democracy is nothing to do with him. The irony of someone who wants to get rid of a democratically elected government defending their love for international interference in the democratic process by saying we are a democracy is off the scale. And a challenging bit of mental gymnastics.

You would be wrong (ignoring your incorrect use of the word illegal). I live near migrant accommodation and have volunteered with and taught asylum seekers. They’re a lot less scary and intimidating than most of the people I’ve seen protesting them.

OP constantly saying people can fuck off is an extremely poor argument.

Our country is economically on its knees and we are allowing open borders for people that we have no means to support.

British people, the large and usually silent majority are absolutely fed up and tired. You have seen the living breathing tangible evidence of that today.

Elon Musk gave voices back to many when he bought X.

For championing free speech, he should be applauded.

Im aware that my views will likely not be popular on Mumsnet but I feel I must speak the truth.

This. Telling everyone who doesn’t agree with you to “fuck off” is why we are where we are in this country and in the West more generally. Tommy R is not everyone’s cup of tea, including mine. But calling what took place yesterday was a “Racist march” is foolish and untrue and incredibly unfair to the vast majorly of regular folk who showed up, non-violently to show their support for the country of Great Britain and feel a sense of unity and identity around being British. There’s is nothing wrong with feeling a sense towards national identity.

Not sure what relevance that has on a thread telling Elon Musk who is not an immigrant to fuck off meddling in our politics.

But I have given it some thought

  1. given birth to me (same as Tommy Robinson)
  2. been colleagues at work
  3. sat in my classes and learned maths (quite a few immigrants in my A-level maths class this year)
  4. 3 out of the last 4 maths teachers I trained were immigrants, so they're holding up the maths education system
  5. been my dentist

...er, I'm not sure why you want to know?

Nobody on here is telling everyone to fuck off. Just Musk and SYL - Musk because it’s none of his business and SYL because he’s a violent racist thug.
It was a racist march as can be seen from the speeches. I’d give a bit of benefit of the doubt to some marchers, but honestly if a march is organised by SYL you know it’s racist. I hope the non racist ones who got taken in were thoroughly disgusted with the content of some of those speeches and think again about who they ally themselves with. Have concerns about policy, fine. But don’t express them by giving support to racists. Try engaging with democracy. Write to your MP. Stand for office. Try improving your own area with community events to promote cohesion. Don’t go off supporting a thug like SYL.

I'm not telling Elon Musk to fuck off because I don't agree with him, I'm telling him to fuck off because he is a foreigner trying to meddle in the politics of our country. And worse than that, calling for violence to achieve his aims.

HTH.
