Amidst nationwide protests where demonstrators are seen replacing the American flag with the Palestinian flag, or attempting to do so, billionaire SpaceX founder and X owner Elon Musk has proposed what he considers a straightforward solution to this issue. Musk suggests that individuals who dismantle the American flag in favor of another nation’s flag should be provided with a one-way ticket to that respective country.

His original post read, “Proposed law: if someone tears down the American flag and puts up another flag in its place, that person should get a free (but mandatory) one-way trip to that flag’s country.” The poll garnered approximately 1.5 million votes, with nearly three-quarters of respondents expressing agreement with Musk’s suggested legislation.
