Elon Musk Challenges Putin To Fight Over Ukraine
Moscow, Mar 15: It is said that all geniuses are a touch crazy and few prove that theory better than SpaceX founder Elon Musk.
The tech mogul has gained global attention once again after bizarrely calling out Russian president Vladimir Putin for a fight, with the winner taking Ukraine.
“I hereby challenge Vladimir Putin to single combat. Stakes are Ukraine,” he tweeted.
The post has garnered over 35,000 retweets at the time of publishing, and 230,000 likes.
“Do you agree to this fight?” he added, tagging the Russian president’s official Twitter handle.
Musk has been tweeting frequently about the Ukraine-Russia conflict which have provoked offense to some and humour to others.
One of those was an image of an ‘NPC’ or ‘non-player character’ – a plain faced figure which pokes fun at those on social media who are considered to go along with whatever they are told by authority. In his tweet, the NPC is holding a flag of Ukraine, with a series of other social justice themed flags in the background, with the slogan: ‘I support the current thing.’
“Netflix waiting for the war to end to make a movie about a black Ukraine guy [who] falls in love with a transgender Russian solider,” read the caption.
