Since the start of the war in Ukraine, Elon Musk has shown up on Twitter several times with comments and polls that some would not hesitate to call “inappropriate.” For example, we saw an entrepreneur post a survey that directly proposed a peace plan without consulting the parties to the conflict. The plan, which includes keeping Crimea by Russia and forcing Ukraine into neutrality, are among other proposals that would appeal to both Russia and Ukraine. But what is now chilling the back followers the most popular Twitter account,” the entrepreneur posted this morning.
Elon Musk menace to transform the war with new weapons?
The latter did take on an article from the British daily newspaper The Independent, which talks about the impact of drones on the war in Ukraine and, in particular, the use of Iranian Shahed drones, often called “kamikaze drones.” car these relatively inexpensive aircraft have the sole purpose of crashing into a target. Elon Musk accompanies the exchange with a mention of “Drone War I” as if to better emphasize that the drones used in this war and their application are not very sophisticated, despite their particularly massive use. Later, Elon Musk bluntly asks what he probably would rather never read in the entrepreneur’s tweets: “Should I make weapons? Ideally not.”

Fortunately, the responses of Internet users at the moment do not please Elon Musk. Many tweeters recall that in the past, the entrepreneur had already promised that he would never deal with weapons. As well as on I hope that unlike son MCU alter ego Tony Stark that he will keep his promise despite the war in Ukraine… However, can you be completely sure? One of followers defends the entrepreneur in the same topic with these words: “Ilon is being pushed to intervene to help the Ukrainian people. He does this to strike a balance. Try to put both sides of the conflict on the same level in order to avoid a one-sided situation that would lead to more deaths and tragedies. World at the lowest price possible”. To which Elon Musk replied: “Exactly.” This seems to confirm that the boss of Tesla and SpaceX sees himself as a more or less active participant in the conflict (today, in addition to his polls, he, in particular, provided the Ukrainian authorities with free access to the Starlink Internet). However, war is undoubtedly an area where on least of all seeks to discover the technological prowess of Elon Musk’s companies. Especially in light of his recent speeches on the subject.
