Elon Musk has emerged as a disruptive force in global politics, leveraging his social media platform, X, and immense influence to intervene in US, UK, and German affairs. In the US, he shapes far-right narratives and advises Donald Trump’s administration. In the UK, he targets Labour leader Keir Starmer over the Rotherham grooming scandal, amplifying divisive rhetoric. In Germany, Musk endorsed the far-right AfD, prompting backlash, including a journalist’s resignation. Musk frames his actions as defending free speech and reform, but critics warn his alignment with extremist ideologies and polarising interventions threaten democratic stability and deepen societal divisions worldwide.
