    Can we strip him of earth citizenship and send him to Mars? Preferably without any of the engineers whose work he claims the credit for?

      Any engineer that’s willing to go with him I’d happily send alongside. As a developer, tech folks have known he’s a piece of shit for more than a decade - people who work for him buy into the same awful beliefs.

          Without massive external support Mars is uninhabitable.

    If anybody should strip him of his citizenship, it’s the US.

    Taking away someone’s birthright citizenship is literally what Trump wants to be able to do.

      Musk has citizenship by descent, not birthright citizenship. He was born in South Africa.

      Yeah. I understand the sentiment, but considering the conservative attempts (and limited successes) of creating tiered citizenship in Canada already… This a is real Pandora’s box that we’d be opening, which could actually hurt actual Canadians, to send a message to someone who couldn’t care less.
