Elon Musk shared a fake Telegraph article claiming Keir Starmer was considering sending far-right rioters to “emergency detainment camps” in the Falklands.

Musk deleted his post after about 30 minutes but a screenshot captured by Politics.co.uk suggests it had garnered nearly two million views before it was deleted.

In it, Musk shared the image posted by the co-leader of the far-right group Britain First, Ashlea Simon, which she captioned with, “we’re all being deported to the Falklands”.

      Gotcha, you’re not gonna share the knowledge. Seems an unusual decision.

        Dude… That was the whole point from the beginning, the Musk being shat on thing is fake, just like the news he’s sharing, why should we refrain from doing to him the same thing he’s doing to others?

          Although I support that position, it wasn’t obviously a joke because no part of that would surprise me if it happened in reality.
