Musk’s caption for the image read: “Kamala vows to be a communist dictator on day one.Can you believe she wears that outfit!?” The sarcastic tone of the caption and the controversial nature of the image have led to a wave of reactions on social media.
Criticism has been swift. Some users have questioned the image’s authenticity and likened it to American actress Eva Longoria, with one remarking, “Setting aside everything else—which is a lot admittedly—I’d just like to say that your AI sucks. Is that Eva Longoria?”
Others have condemned Musk’s post as dangerous and misleading. “It’s because of posts like this, that X is being banned and restricted in other countries,” one comment read. Another user pointed out the potential dangers of such extreme manipulation from a figure with significant influence: “Doesn’t all the money and power come with more responsibility?”
On the other hand, some users have supported Musk’s stance, expressing concerns about Harris’s political track record. “Difference is he was already president for 4 years and didn’t become a dictator. Kamala’s track record shows that she has a proclivity for corruption. Corruption leads to tyranny. We will lose America and the rest of the free world if Harris wins,” said one supporter.
