    “He told police at the tunnel and said in a later interview at Folkestone police station that his phone contained information about “vulnerable girls” whom he had spoken to during what he described as his journalistic reporting on grooming gangs.”

    In US this generally ends with a republican having child porn in his phone.

    Of all the causes that Musk could support, he supports a nasty little nazi. What a shit stain on humanity the horrible rich nazi is.

      This is to be expected. You yourself are trying to manipulate society with your comment.

      What would be surprising is if billionaires didn’t attempt to manipulate society in their interests.

        Damn, I didn’t realize our comments on a random lemmy instance have the same power as Elon Musk’s billions.

          same power

          I didn’t comment on scale of impact, only intent. Please don’t put words in my mouth.

        Billionaires are allowed to live in society, I think it is fair however that we take issue that their attempts to bring about a violent right-wing ultra-nationalist revolution. It sort of feels like they’re taking free will a bit too far.

          Allowed to live sure but I’d argue they shouldn’t be allowed to exist as billionaires.

          that kind of wealth is just immoral, unreasonable by the scale of human’s lifetime, and exploitative by nature.

          Billionaires are allowed to live in society

          No, they’re the ones who allow, not the ones who are allowed.

            At this point I have no idea what you’re trying to say with any of your comments. All of the words individually make sense and even the sentences are valid, but the end result don’t form into a coherent thought.

              To “allow” a thing means that some actor has the power to give or deny permission for the thing. There are no actors who have the power to deny permission for there to be billionaires in society. Indeed, billionaires are the category of actors who have more power to give or deny permission than any other category, particularly when it comes to how society is constituted.

    A bunch of mindless jerks who’ll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

    Just an unrelated quote from hitchhikers guide to the galaxy that has nothing to do with this story.

    Can we not just bring back the death penalty for this tit. Maybe channel 4 could cover his execution, it seems like their sort of content.
