In its latest video, Anonymous said: āThe writing is on the f**king wall, Trump, Musk, and Putin are playing a dangerous game.ā
The group continued: āNow add Musk, pulling the strings in the US governmentās so-called Department of Government Efficiency, slashing public programs while sucking up power, and we've got the perfect storm for democratic destruction.ā
Continuing its tirade against the Tesla boss, Anonymous said: āMusk's parade of empty promises and hollow patriotism is as transparent as it is dangerous. The man is the very f**king embodiment of everything conspiracy theorists warned us about.ā
Circling back to āProject Russiaā, Anonymous warned: āThis isnāt paranoia, āProject Russiaā, a documented plan to destabilize Western democracies.ā
Elon Musk has been critical of the group in the past, previously mocking the group after they wrongly predicted that Trump would lose the election, claiming that afterwards āElon is going to dissolve and liquidate Twitterā.
The billionaire has not yet commented on this latest message.
