Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur and founder of Tesla, SpaceX, and X, has stirred up a storm of controversy and criticism with his latest tweet about the possibility of World War III. On Tuesday, Musk posted a cryptic message on his Twitter account, which has over 100 million followers, saying:
I hope we can avoid World War III. It would be bad for everyone.
The tweet, which has received over 2 million likes
and 500,000 retweets, has sparked a heated debate among his fans and critics, as well as experts and analysts. Some have praised Musk for raising awareness and calling for peace, while others have accused him of fear-mongering and spreading misinformation.
Musk’s tweet comes amid rising tensions and conflicts around the world, especially between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, and between Russia and Ukraine. According to some reports, Musk was referring to a speech by Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday, in which he warned of a “red line” that the West should not cross in its relations with Russia. Putin also said that Russia would respond “asymmetrically, swiftly and harshly” to any provocations that threaten its security and interests.
Musk has been vocal about his views on geopolitics and international affairs in the past. He has expressed his support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and criticized Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014. He has also offered a proposal to end the Ukraine war, which would involve granting autonomy to the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, where pro-Russian separatists have been fighting against the Ukrainian government since 2014. However, his proposal has been rejected by both sides as unrealistic and unacceptable.
Musk has also been involved in the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, which erupted earlier this month after Hamas launched a surprise attack on Jerusalem, killing mostly Israeli civilians. Musk has provided his Starlink satellite internet service to the Ukrainian military, which has helped them communicate and coordinate their operations against the Russian-backed forces. He has also allegedly turned off Starlink access for the Ukrainian military in certain situations, according to some sources. On the other hand, Musk has also donated $1 million to a non-profit organization that plants trees in Israel, and expressed his sympathy for the victims of the violence in Gaza.
Musk’s tweet about World War III has drawn mixed reactions from his followers and the public. Some have thanked him for his concern and urged him to use his influence and resources to promote peace and dialogue. Others have questioned his motives and credibility, and accused him of being naive or hypocritical. Some have also pointed out the irony of Musk’s tweet, given that he is developing rockets and missiles that could potentially be used for military purposes.
Musk has not elaborated on his tweet or responded to any of the comments or questions. It is unclear whether he was serious or joking about World War III, or whether he had any specific information or evidence to back up his claim. However, his tweet has certainly generated a lot of attention and discussion, which may have been his intention all along.
