Comedian Bill Burr has never been one to hold back his opinions, and his latest target is none other than Elon Musk. In a recent appearance promoting his latest comedy special, Drop Dead Years, Burr called out the Tesla and SpaceX CEO, referring to him as an “idiot” and even suggesting he is “evidently a Nazi.”
Bill Burr Speaks Out Against Elon Musk
Burr’s scathing remarks stemmed from Musk’s recent controversy, where he was caught on camera making a gesture that some interpreted as a Nazi salute. While Musk’s supporters have dismissed it as an accident, Burr made it clear he wasn’t buying that explanation. “I just refuse to believe that it was an accidental two-time Sieg Heil,” he said, emphasizing the deliberate nature of the movement.

The comedian also took the opportunity to criticize liberals, arguing that they have become ineffective when it comes to taking on figures like Musk. “They’re all talk,” Burr said, mocking those who threaten to leave the country over political disagreements but never follow through.
“What are you gonna do, leave because of Elon Musk? This guy has dyed hair plugs, a laminated face, and owns an obsolete social media platform,” he quipped, talking about Musk’s purchase of X (formerly Twitter) and his often polarizing online presence.
Tesla Wasn’t Safe Either
Burr also took jabs at Tesla, saying, “He made a bad car! Every Tesla owner I know has to download a software update before they can even use the brakes.” His critique of Musk extended beyond his tech ventures, pointing to the billionaire’s online antics and need for attention.

Musk has faced growing criticism for his behavior on social media. This includes spreading conspiracy theories and engaging in feuds with public figures. His defenders argue that he is simply a provocateur who enjoys pushing boundaries, but Burr seems unimpressed. The comedian’s no-holds-barred approach to comedy has long been his signature. Moreover, his latest tirade against Musk has reignited discussions about the billionaire’s controversial public persona.
As expected, the internet is divided over Burr’s comments. While some applaud his raw take, others feel he is unfairly attacking Musk. Regardless, one thing is certain, Bill Burr isn’t afraid to say what’s on his mind, and Elon Musk is once again at the center of a heated debate.
