In his most delusional interview yet, Elon Musk has…
…said a lot of things.
This is genuinely insane. I mean, just worryingly divorced from any reality. How desperate are people to believe this nonsense? https://t.co/yLqG0REDGI

Fantasy
In the above clip, Musk says:
These lovely small towns in England, Scotland, Ireland, they’ve been living their lives quietly. They’re like hobbits, frankly. In fact, J.R.R. Tolkien based the hobbits on people he knew in small-town England because they were just lovely people who liked to smoke their pipe and have nice meals and everything’s pleasant. The hobbits in the shire.
I’m actually well placed to respond to this, because I’m a white guy from Lancashire – the country which includes the famous ‘Tolkien Trail’ and ‘Hobbit Hill’. Here’s how the Hobbit Hill website describes Tolkien’s attachment to Lancashire:
J. R. R. Tolkien was renowned for his love of nature and wooded landscapes and the countryside around Stonyhurst is richly beautiful. A number of names which occur in ‘The Lord of the Rings’ are similar to those found locally, including Shire Lane (in Hurst Green) and the River Shirebourn (similar to the name of the family which built Stonyhurst).
The ferry at Hacking Boat House (still working when J.R.R. Tolkien was here) may have provided the inspiration for the Buckleberry Ferry in the book, and the view from Tom Bombadil’s house may have been based on that from New Lodge, which is a Master’s house at nearby Stonyhurst College. Hacking Boat House is part of the Foxfields Farm estate.
Now that I’ve established that I’m a certified hobbit, I can tell you:
- Neither I nor anyone I know have ever been described as ‘lovely’ or ‘pleasant’.
- The only pipe I’ve ever seen anyone smoking was less ‘pipeweed’ and more just ‘weed’.
- Fair’s fair – I have eaten my share of ‘nice meals’.
Musk continued:
So he was talking about you know, places like Hertfordshire, like the shires around in the greater London area, Oxfordshire type of thing.
Contrary to this, Tolkien described Sarehole as being the primary inspiration for the Shire, which is a village outside of Birmingham. As the BBC reported:
In a newspaper interview Tolkien fondly recalled the area, saying the Shire was “inspired by a few cherished square miles of actual countryside at Sarehole”.
In the same article, it’s noted that – like Musk – Tolkien was born in South Africa. Unlike Musk, however, Tolkien wasn’t thick as shit, which is why he’d never say anything like the following:
But the reason they’ve been able to enjoy the shire is because hard men have protected them from the dangers of the world. But since they have almost no exposure to the dangers of the world, they don’t realise that they’re there until one day, you know, a thousand people show up in your village of 500 out of nowhere and start raping the kids. This has happened God knows how many times in Britain.
While this has actually happened in England, it hasn’t been a problem since 1066 when the Vikings last raided us.
‘Hard men’
Musk’s defenders are saying things like, ‘although he sounds completely unhinged, he’s actually talking about something which makes sense, and which we can assure you is definitely happening‘. Generally, they’re pointing at the issue of grooming gangs. While such gangs are a problem that the government needs to tackle, the reason there’s a focus on them and not the many other safety concerns UK women face is because figures like Tommy Robinson are using the issue as a vector to attack Muslims.
Here’s what Musk tweeted two days before Halloween:
When Tolkien wrote about the hobbits, he was referring to the gentlefolk of the English shires, who don’t realize the horrors that take place far away.
They were able to live their lives in peace and tranquility, but only because they were protected by the hard men of Gondor.
What happened to the nice man who was brutally murdered while walking his dog will happen to all of England if the tide of illegal immigration is not turned.
It is time for the English to ally with the hard men, like Tommy Robinson, and fight for their survival or they shall surely all perish.
That’s right, the English must ally with the shit-stirring hooligan / coke head Tommy Robinson.

Remember when it wasn’t normal for the richest man in the world to be promoting the UK’s smallest bullshitter?
We know Musk doesn’t actually care about abuse, because he served in Donald Trump’s administration despite later admitting he knew he was in the Epstein Files:

As recently as this week, Musk threw his weight behind New York mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo – a man who subjected female employees “to a sexually hostile work environment” (he also retaliated against four of the women who complained):
“Whatever his name is”

We also know his pal Tommy Robinson doesn’t care about abuse, as HOPE not Hate have reported:
Since founding the EDL in 2009, the issue of sexual violence at the hands of Muslim men – described as ‘Rape Jihad’ – has been a mainstay for Stephen Yaxley-Lennon. However, he himself has an appalling record of confronting paedophilia and abuse within his own team and amongst his supporters. Lennon has consistently ignored or even defended occurrences of these crimes in his own ranks, proving that he is more concerned with attacking Muslims than actually combatting CSE or challenging sexual violence.
Notoriously, in June 2010 Lennon’s close friend and ally Richard Price was convicted of making four indecent images of children, and possessing cocaine and crack cocaine.[i] The vile images were found on his computer by police after he was arrested for disturbances at an EDL demonstration.
Far from condemning Price’s crimes, the EDL launched a campaign for his release.
Decline
Increasingly, it looks like Twitter addiction and suspected drug use have fried Elon Musk’s brain. While this isn’t proven, the only opposing explanation is that he’s just incredibly dim.
Or, to put it in terms he might understand, he’s like Gandalf on Opposite Day.
