His actions as part of DOGE have threatened US national security, risked data breaches, threatened the scientific research enterprise, and put thousands of lives at risk through his savaging of US AID. Time for Musk to be out of the Royal Society.

Sign on to the open letter urging the Royal Society to expel Elon Musk. 1700+ signatories so far, including Fellows. https://t.co/8FvacakYaI . Musk's misdeeds have gone beyond just noxious opinions and spreading lies.

What is Elon Musk but a "foreign adversary"? His interference in EU/UK affairs is far more hostile and damaging than anything done on TikTok contra the US. And with Trump threatening to invade Greenland (or tariff Denmark into submission) US looks adversarial

From the US legislation banning TikTok: "This bill prohibits distributing, maintaining or providing internet hosting services for a foreign adversary controlled application..." That sounds like a good template for UK and EU legislation banning X.

To all those who haven't come over to https://t.co/xCja0fFDNE , think what you're missing! I'm actually posting interesting stuff over there regularly, but the only thing I'll be posting on Twitter are occasional insults to Musk or Trump .

Have you seen Trumps latest sign of mental breakdown? Miming a sex act with a microphone stand at a rally with children present? Trump is Caligula, and Musk is his handmaiden.

It's past due time for the Royal Society to expel Musk from the Fellowship. Initiating action is in the control of the Royal Society Council, not the membership as a whole. Council must not be cowardly about this. The reputation of the Society is at stake.

In response to Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris, Musk tweeted “Fine Taylor … you win… I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life.” https://t.co/kKBpq7YO0Y How can this be construed as anything other than a thinly veiled threat of rape?

Elon Musk was blasted on X for suggesting he would impregnate Taylor Swift after she endorsed Kamala Harris for president.

It was already bad enough that Elon Musk platformed far-right hate speech and incitement to riot on Twitter, and promulgated inflammatory disinformation, But how do we feel about what can only be construed as a threat to rape somebody in retaliation for their views?

Musk’s own tweets, and his platforming of disinformation and inflammatory hate speech, fit the bill for sure.

There is a move afoot to expel Elon Musk from the Royal Society. As a RoySoc Fellow, I say Go For It! Our statutes call for expulsion of Fellows whose actions bring the reputation of the Society into disrepute.

... so I guess I'll just log in from time to time to throw out another well-deserved insult to the Muskrat to keep the account active.
