Speaking as someone in Europe
The US has a major effect on the rest of the world. Elon is a big concern even if you don't live in the US
..and you don't wanna see what's gonna happen aa the US progresses more into fascism and sets their sights for outside their borders. Hell, they've already done that with Canada and Greenland, even
I agree. "One of the most important day in modern history" though? That's a bit exceptionalistic IMO.
he's been trying to influence elections outside the US too. his companies operate around the world and influence communication and transportation, and he has incentives to influence laws in other countries to lax regulations and kill competitors, including public transport and internet access. he's a nazi who operates pretty much everywhere.
most important days in history is a little hyperbole, but it will be important for the whole world.
