Elon Musk Causes Stir With Response To Professor's Ominous Prediction Of Civil War 'Coming To The West'
Benzinga - by Bibhu Pattnaik, Benzinga Staff Writer.
Elon Musk raised eyebrows with his recent tweet affirming a prediction of a civil war in the West.
What Happened: In reply to a tweet by Canadian professor Gad Saad, who suggested that "war is coming" and elaborated by stating, "Some imbeciles are questioning the scope of this prediction so let me be clearer: Civil war is coming to the West," Musk responded by asserting, "100% probability," causing a stir on X, formerly Twitter. The tweet was posted on Saturday.
100% probabilityThis is not the first time Musk's tweets have made headlines. Recently, he responded to a tweet by Greg Price, the communications director of the State Freedom Caucus Network, who quoted President Joe Biden's remarks at the White House Correspondents dinner.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 4, 2024

Why It Matters: Musk's prediction comes amid political tension and unrest. His recent interactions on X, including his response to Biden's comments, have been seen by some as indicative of his political stance.
Furthermore, Musk's company, SpaceX, was contracted by the U.S. government to develop a network of spy satellites.
This $1.8 billion project, aimed at enhancing global surveillance capabilities, underscores the growing partnership between SpaceX and national security agencies. This information adds another layer of context to Musk's ominous prediction.
