Musk Changes Name to 'Elona' After Chechen Leader's Advice, Promises to Fight Putin With Left Hand

 

2 hours ago

 

The eccentric businessman took to Twitter on Monday, delivering what appeared to be a personal challenge to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Musk invited Putin to "single combat," with Ukraine as the stakes.

 

SpaceX and Tesla founder billionaire Elon Musk has changed his Twitter account name to "Elona Musk" in reference to a recent Telegram post by the head of the Chechen Republic of Russia, in which he warned the businessman against fighting the Russian president and advised him to take a training course to become more "brutal".

 

On Tuesday, Musk surprised his followers by posting Ramzan Kadyrov's response to his early offer of a fight to Putin. In a post on the messenger, Kadyrov said that he "would not advise" Musk to compete with Putin.

 

"Too different weight categories. And it's not even about martial arts or, for example, judo," he wrote. "You are in the red corner of the ring - a businessman and a Twitter blogger. Putin in blue is a world politician, strategist, a bogeyman of the West and the US. Vladimir Vladimirovich will look unsportsmanlike when he beats a weaker opponent."

In this regard, the leader of the Russian region suggested that Musk needs "to pump up in order to turn from gentle (effeminate) Elona into brutal Elon. I propose to undergo training in several centers in the Chechen Republic."

In particular, the head of the Russian region told Musk that he would be trained in fire training at the Russian Special Forces University, while at the Akhmat fight club they would teach him to take a hit, "because this quality will be needed in any fight," where he will also be able to acquire "steel nerves."

 

In addition, the Chechen leader advised the businessman to visit the local Grozny TV channel, where they would tell him about "American methods of black PR" and at the same time teach him how to manage his social media accounts.

 

Musk replied by thanking the Chechen leader for his offer, "but such excellent training would give me too much of an advantage."

 

Judging by comments to Musk's post, the idea to change the name was likely suggested to him by several followers, including YouTuber Dave Lee, who asked him to change his profile name "for a few days."

Twitter users reacted with a flurry of jokes to the sudden change in gender name identity and attempt to challenge a world leader.

 

Earlier, the Chechen leader, who has come under new EU and UK sanctions imposed due to the Kremlin's ongoing special military operation in Ukraine, has threatened European leaders with "harsh" retaliatory measures, such as recognizing left-hand traffic as a "vile" relic of the Middle Ages, and also, perhaps most terrifying, declaiming that there is "no such thing as an English tea!"

Humanitarian flights for Ukraine loaded with weapons, protesting airport workers claim

 

Airport workers in Italy claim “humanitarian” cargo from Pisa was actually aimed at fuelling the conflict

 

One of Italy’s largest trade unions has called for a protest outside the Pisa airport on Saturday, after receiving a tip from some employees that Ukraine relief flights were transporting weapons and ammunition, not food and medicine.

 

Several workers at the Galileo Galilei airport refused to load one of the cargo flights advertised as carrying humanitarian aid to Ukraine. The crates did not contain food and medication but weapons, ammunition and explosives instead, the Unione Sindacale di Base (USB) said in a statement on Monday evening.

 

“We strongly denounce this outright falsification, which cynically uses ‘humanitarian’ aid as cover to fuel the war in Ukraine,” the USB said.

 

The union said the workers refused to load the military supplies as that would lead to the deaths of their colleagues in Ukraine – namely, those working at the bases targeted by Russian missile strikes, where the weapons processed through US and NATO bases in Poland get delivered.

 

Francesca Donato, an Italian member of the European Parliament, commented on the union’s statement by calling on the government in Rome to “clarify” what is happening.

 

Meanwhile, dockworkers at the nearby port of Livorno joined the protest on Tuesday, praising their airport colleagues for standing up for their values.

 

“We stand alongside the Ukrainian peoples, the Donbass and Russia and we do not want to be complicit in this conflict,” the Porto Livorno chapter of USB said in a statement.

 

USB is calling for air traffic control of the Pisa airport to “immediately block these flights of death disguised as humanitarian aid.” A protest under the slogan “bridges of peace, not flights of war” is scheduled outside the airport for Saturday, March 19.

 

The union also called on all workers to refuse to load weapons and explosives, and for an immediate ceasefire and peace talks to end the conflict in Ukraine.

 

Russia sent troops into Ukraine on February 23, saying it needs to demilitarize and “denazify” the government in Kiev that sought NATO membership and nuclear weapons. The Ukrainian government has accused Russia of an unprovoked attack. NATO has pledged military and humanitarian aid to Kiev, while enacting a widespread embargo against Russia.
