Tesla CEO Elon Musk says ‘Civil war in Britain is inevitable. Just a question of…’

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has sparked a major online debate after making a bold statement that a civil war in Britain is “inevitable.” Musk made the comment on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter), responding to a series of posts about rising public anger across the UK.The discussion began when one X user wrote, “You can smell the anger across the UK tonight. Decent people have had enough…” In response, Gad Saad – Canadian marketing professor at the John Molson School of Business at Concordia University commented, “There will be civil war.” Musk then quoted the professor’s post, adding his own chilling remark: “Civil war in Britain is inevitable. Just a question of when.”His post quickly went viral, with more than 57 million views so far.

Many users expressed concern over the billionaire’s statement, while others agreed that social and political tensions in the UK have been rising.While Musk did not provide further details or context for his remark, but it comes amid a period of public unrest in parts of the country, including protests over political and economic issues. Some analysts say his comment reflects broader fears about growing division and frustration among citizens.

“It doesn't matter how many times you assert this Elon, you won't make it happen,” said one user. “There has to be one in order to save it, or Britain is truly lost,” commented another.Musk, who frequently comments on global political and social issues, has often used his platform to share unfiltered opinions. His statement about the UK adds to a list of controversial remarks that have previously drawn both criticism and support online.As of now, neither the UK government nor the professor Musk quoted has responded publicly to his post. However, the remark has reignited conversations about online rhetoric, social tensions, and the potential consequences of influential figures predicting unrest.
