Somebody ask it if he's more efficient than Mussolini.

That’s a pretty low bar.

Elon Musk calls for 'abolition' of EU as the regional bloc slaps €120 mn fine on X

Tesla CEO Elon Musk called for the “abolition” of the European Union after the regional bloc fined his social media platform X a whopping €120 million. On Saturday, the billionaire lashed out over the matter and threatened to pursue each country individually in a series of posts on the site.

X, formerly known as Twitter, was fined over transparency breaches. “The EU should be abolished, and sovereignty returned to individual countries, so that governments can better represent their people,” Musk wrote in a post on Saturday, shortly after the ruling. Hours later, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk defended the bloc, insisting that Europe was America’s closest ally.

After a thorough investigation which went on for two years, the European Commission ruled against X on three counts. It found that the ‘blue tick’ verification badge was deceptive, as users could simply pay for the privilege; that there was a lack of transparency over advertisers on the site, falling foul of safeguards against scams and illegal promotions; and that researchers were denied access to what should be public data.

The European Commission has lost access to its control panel for buying and tracking ads on Elon Musk’s X — after fining the social media platform €120 million for violating EU transparency rules.

“Your ad account has been terminated,” X’s head of product, Nikita Bier, wrote on the platform early Sunday.

Bier accused the EU executive of trying to amplify its own social media post about the fine on X by trying “to take advantage of an exploit in our Ad Composer — to post a link that deceives users into thinking it's a video and to artificially increase its reach.”

I always knew the Elongated Muskrat had an inflated notion of his own self worth, but imagining that he can abolish the EU is a whole new level of stupid.

I can't wait until he discovers that all his money will do nothing for his terminal cancer.

More like blinded by ego. His ego has swelled to the point where he's living in a false reality of his own creation. I think he really believes himself to be a superior being. It would be sad and comical at once if it weren't for the fact that his influence makes it dangerous.

Elon Musk is the closest thing the world has seen to a real-life James Bond villain.
