Calin Georgescu was arrested this morning, released under judicial control, and now his supporters are crying dictatorship. Meanwhile, Elon Musk is going full popcorn mode on X. Let’s unpack this circus. 🎪

6/ Bottom line: This isn’t a fight for democracy—it’s just another example of how easily outrage is manufactured. And if Musk’s hot takes are your primary source of news, maybe it’s time to diversify your reading list.

5/ If you think this is a police state, I have some history books to recommend. Romania knows what an actual dictatorship looks like. And it’s not when a guy gets questioned by the police and then goes home.

4/ Musk jumping in is also a classic case of "Loud Opinion, Zero Context". Romania isn’t arresting political dissidents—it’s investigating someone who, if anything, was given a megaphone for years.

3/ The irony? The same people who spent years saying Romania is run by a corrupt elite are now furious that the justice system actually took action. So, do we want the rule of law or not?

2/ But reality doesn’t matter when you have a good narrative. His supporters are already shouting about “persecution,” and Musk is amplifying the noise. Because nothing screams oppression like being free to rant about it online.

1/ First, the facts: Georgescu, known for conspiracy theories and cozying up to the far right, was detained and then promptly released. Because, you know, that’s how actual police states operate - by… letting people go.
