Then his citizenship there is now null and void.

Canada’s sovereignty mocked by someone who got citizenship through family ties—irony overload.

😾😾

We are in a post irony phase since a long time

This is the same shit Russia said about Ukraine when they invaded, isn't it?

USA is not a real country, it's territory stolen and occupied from the native population.
Musk is not a real human, he is a walking talking NAZI disease.

Maybe think of a comeback that doesn't also apply to Canada

More than 250 Canadian citizens and residents have signed a petition calling for Elon Musk to be stripped of his Canadian citizenship.

It was 250 thousand. But I'm pretty sure it got even higher than that.

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 32 points 1 day ago

Well 250,000 is more than 250 so they're technically correct (the best kind of correct)...

[–] Lemmist@lemm.ee 83 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Russians say this very same thing about Ukraine. Not a real country.

[–] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 29 points 1 day ago

Yep.

It's easy to just get angry and flippant over him saying this, but this is explicitly fascist rhetoric and should be taken seriously, even though he will play it as a joke if questioned, just like the Sieg Heil salutes.

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 86 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Fascist doing very dangerous fascist stuff. Seriously we've got to stop these fascists before they start WWIII.

[–] RustyShackleford@programming.dev 2 points 19 hours ago

I would argue that it's already begun (obviously, without formal declarations of war from belligerents involved in the various theaters of operations), but I'm open to hearing why that's not the case.

[–] Punchshark@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago

I would love to see this limp dick loser come to Canada and spew any of that rhetoric

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 12 points 1 day ago

Do not let this person in your country!

No he does, but it’s another man’s hair. He needed gender affirming care because he didn’t feel good about his appearance, and that care happened to be some other man’s hair.

Countries are just a social construct.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Canada is though.

Just because he's an inept moron doesn't mean that he's not a terrorist.

[–] dotslashme@infosec.pub 21 points 1 day ago

If it's not a real country, then it cannot issue a citizenship, problem solved in my mind.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 13 points 1 day ago

Xelon is not an actual Human. Unknown substance detected.
