Tesla co-founder previously suggested Taiwan should become a ‘special administrative zone’ in China
Elon Musk, the owner of X/Twitter, was called out on his platform by Taiwan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs after calling the island nation an “integral part of China” and insisting that he understands “China well.”
Mr Musk made the comments on the “All In” podcast while answering a question about China and the future of his involvement with the nation.
During the interview, Mr Musk said “I think I understand China well,” and notes that he’s been there several times and has met with high-ranking officials.
He then turns his attention to Taiwan, and compares its relationship to China to Hawaii’s relationship to the US, insisting it is "an integral part of China that is arbitrarily not part of China”.
That comparison is flawed in two major ways: first, Hawaii is not a contested region, but is unquestionably a US state with all the same powers and freedoms granted any other US state; second, Taiwan’s assertion that it is its own state is not arbitrary, but instead a position it has held for decades.
I’m just sitting here waiting for Elon to go bald so he can finally come out as Lex Luthor.
He already did. Then he paid a bunch of money to get the hair back.
Thats what $200 billion is for
Ahh, the Bezos plan.
He wishes he was Lex Luthor lol
At some point DC started to design Luther after Trump. Now hear me out; if you happen to watch Harley Quinn, I believe that this is what they are trying to do with Luther right now. They are shaping him into a Musk lookalike.
