    The United States.

    Of course, you could also argue that Musk is a traitor to all rational creatures everywhere, and that his existence is an act of blasphemy against all that is good and moral in the world, but that’s a separate issue.

      He’s not an elected official and AFAIK doing business with Russia would be a sanctions violation which does not equate treason.

      He’s just doing what the system allows for rich assholes to do.

        By definition, a citizen is guilty of treason when he gives succor (aid and comfort) to his nation’s enemies. Musk gives a lot of succor to America’s enemies, he succors them real hard, if you know what I mean.

        Edit: Brace yourselves everyone, the Putin/Musk apologetics have begun.

          Well that’s a horrifyingly broad definition, especially when you’re applying it to any entity the USA has an antagonistic relationship with, and but just adversaries in a declared war. By that definition, anyone aiding Palestine would be guilty of treason.

          Yikes. What defines an “enemy” of america? Is it just whatever the government says? Has the US always been at war with Eurasia?
