Online reaction to Belfast event by Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson blamed for riots

Elon Musk reposted social media messages denouncing the state of the United Kingdom. “Only by protesting REPEATEDLY and LOUDLY will there be any change,” he wrote.

A video of a Belfast knife attack was shared by far-right figures, including Tommy Robinson, and amplified by Elon Musk, helping to fuel anti-migrant rhetoric and violent protests.
