Bill Burr Took No Prisoners, Accusing Elon Musk Of Being "Evidently A Nazi" And Ripping His "Laminated Face," And People Online Loved It

I think it's more than safe to say that right now Elon Musk is one of the most hated people in the world. Heck, he isn't very liked by the majority of Americans either.

Even some Republican lawmakers are raising concerns about Musk, as the huge budget cuts his DOGE department is doing are starting to impact their constituents.

Earlier this week, Bill Burr appeared on NPR's Fresh Air to promote his upcoming Hulu comedy special, Drop Dead Years. In the interview, Burr said that his comedy nowadays is to get people to see that it's billionaires who are dividing us, saying, "I'm trying to get regular people to stop yelling at each other and realize that it's a select few group of nerds — OK? — eating raw almonds and doing their stupid workouts and everything and just competing with each other to have the biggest infinity pool, and the rest of us are getting pushed down. And they've politicized the whole stupid thing, and we're falling for it."

When asked to clarify who they are, Burr, who has never shied away from sharing his honest opinions, said, "That idiot Elon Musk." He then went on to say that Musk is "evidently a Nazi." Adding, "Like, I just refuse to believe that it was an accidental two-time Sieg heil. And he does it at a presidential inauguration."

Burr then ripped into liberals for having "no teeth whatsoever" because they'd rather leave the US than push back against "one guy with dyed hair plugs and a laminated face...who makes a bad car and has an obsolete social media platform" and that "can't fight his way out of a wet paper bag."

People online are applauding Burr for calling out Musk, as well as the Democrats for not fighting back harder. So, I rounded up some Twitter (X) reactions:
