How do you feel about Elon Musk being nominated for Nobel Peace Prize?

[Cubus]

Elon Musk has been nominated for Nobel Peace Prize 2025 by Slovenian politician and member of the European Parliment - Branko Grims. The reason: "Defending the basic human right that is the freedom of speech".

Of course it doesn't mean he is to win it, but it's interesting.

I'd have a hard time justifying that decision personally after his recent track record of banning people from X for disagreeing with him over a visa program...

Then again, the bar for "defending free speech" from a European perspective is extremely low, so... Good for him, I guess.

I think The Onion has an incredibly tough job trying to do satire in this era.

He banned people that disagreed with him lol.

There's seriously no one that I can stand less than Elon Musk. I wish he would just f-ck off back to South Africa and leave America alone.

It just confirms what I already know... money can corrupt anywhere/anyone.

[Syntosi]

A complete waste of time. He has done nothing that would warrant such an award.

Makes more sense than Obama winning it for doing nothing.

[lightbulb27]

makes not sense to me. maybe for providing satelitte communications when systems down. ?

[princeofromance]

It is alright by me.
