Elon Musk draws fire for playing down impact of America’s atomic bombing of Japan: ‘Not as scary as people think’
Elon Musk draws fire for playing down impact of America’s atomic bombing of Japan: ‘Not as scary as people think’
‘It is not as scary as people think, basically,’ Tesla chief says
Elon and Trump make the worst possible argument for nuclear power I have ever heard:
"Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed but now they are full cities again," the multibillionaire owner of Tesla, SpaceX and X said.
"That's great, that's great," Mr Trump responded.
"It is not as scary as people think, basically," Mr Musk added.
They joked about nuclear power facing a “branding problem”.
“We will have to rebrand it,” the former president told Mr Musk. “We will name it after you or something.”

So no. He wasn't born in Kenya.

3 5 Replynomous @lemmy.world This is the problem with misinformation and low information voters. Shits been a decade and you still thought he was born in Kenya?
Do you actually follow any news sources at all?

SeaJ @lemm.ee Wouldn't matter if he was (he was born in Hawai'i). His mother was American and he automatically was. Elon's father and mother are South African.
