Has ‘The Simpsons’ predicted Elon Musk’s fate? Latest episode suggests billionaire will be forced to sell Twitter after major incident

The final episode of The Simpsons aired on Sunday, detailing what the fate of Elon Musk’s X and SpaceX could be.

The series, famous for its predictions coming true, focuses on Mr. Burns, who falls in love with a young college dropout executive named Persephone and buys her Twitter.

He tells his girlfriend that he bought the platform for a “bargain” because “the previous owner had to sell it after a self-driving Mars rocket collided with the International Space Station.”

The FOX television show had predicted that Musk would buy Twitter in a previous episode before the billionaire paid $44 billion for the platform in 2022.
