Elon Musk compares Justin Trudeau to Hitler in meme as he slams him for cracking down on Freedom Convoy
Daily Mail ^

Posted on 02/17/2022 5:14:56 PM PST by algore

Elon Musk has compared Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to Adolf Hitler in a meme criticizing his crackdown on Freedom Convoy protests.

Musk, the world's richest man and a cryptocurrency advocate, posted the meme on Twitter early Thursday, responding to reports that Mounties are seeking to freeze crypto wallets tied to the protests.

The image depicts the Nazi dictator Hitler with the text: 'Stop comparing me to Justin Trudeau... I had a budget.' The reference to a 'budget' is unclear and suggests the meme is recycled from some prior controversy over Canada's government spending.

Musk was responding to a report from CoinDesk indicating that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have ordered Canadian exchanges to cease facilitating any transactions from 34 crypto wallets tied to the protests.

The Tesla CEO has been critical of covid restrictions, including vaccine mandates. In December, he confirmed that he and his children have been vaccinated, saying 'the science is unequivocal' but that he does not approve of vaccine mandates.

'You are taking a risk, but people do risky things all the time,' speaking of the unvaccinated but he still believes that being vaccinated should be a personal choice.

'I believe we've got to watch out for the erosion of freedom in America,' he said.

Musk moved to Texas in 2021 from California over the state's strict covid mandates. Musk has argued with government officials over mandates and broken regulations to keep his plants open throughout the pandemic.

Musk may “reach” them, too, like Spock did the hippies. He’s halfway on their wavelength anyway.

So glad this trucker thing happened ...talk about a little hope restored! They’re carrying it off so well and decently, it’s enough to get a guy emotional.

I may not agree with Mr Musk on every word he utters. But I do appreciate his sense is humor

One of the richest man on earth should do more for the truckers then just flap his lips! Some of those truckers have not had paychecks for over three weeks and I bet you their families are seeing some hard times right now. So Mr. Musk talk is cheap how about some $....you could move mountains with that sort of cash for their families!

That would create an expectation on the part of everyone else that Musk will fund them for protesting as well. It also would discredit protesters by making it look like they were being paid by Musk to protest.
