"You spout shite on a podcast to reinforce your 𝘰𝘸𝘯 position that "civil war is coming"... it's a self-fulfilling prophecy."

"Hobbit" and "Rape" Comments: During the podcast, Musk described rural British towns as "Hobbit-like"--referencing J.R.R. Tolkien's work--suggesting they are peaceful places where people "smoke their pipe, and have nice meals". He then argued that these areas are unprepared for the world, claiming that "one day, 1,000 people show up in your village of 500... and start raping the kids". He added, "This has now happened; God knows how many times in Britain".

"Civil War" Claim: Musk has previously stated, and reiterated around the time of this podcast, that he believes a "civil war is coming" to the UK, a claim often linked to his criticism of immigration policies and his promotion of far-right narratives.

Backlash and Context: These comments caused significant outrage, with UK officials and commentators calling them "dangerous and inflammatory". Critics have pointed out that these remarks are part of a broader pattern of misinformation designed to provoke, with some describing them as a self-fulfilling prophecy aimed at causing instability.
