Getting close to Godwins law there. I've never seen Musk promote anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. And none of those things I mentioned are extremist in the slightest.

Then let's get this thread good and Godwined. Hitler thought Germany should have good roads: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reichsautobahn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reichsautobahn Hitler also thought Germany should have good railways: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitspurbahn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitspurbahn Nothing extremist in that, not even in the slightest. It's just a shame about the rest of it.

  Not sure how that applies to Elon in the slightest. I've never seen him promote anti-semitic views.

Did you not see this exchange last year? > @breakingbaht: "Jewish communties have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them." > @elonmusk: "You have said the actual truth." https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/nov/16/elon-musk-antisemitic-tweet-adl https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/nov/16/elon-musk... It's hard to get more explicit than that.

  Taken in context, additional tweets: @elonmusk: I am deeply offended by ADL’s messaging and any other groups who push de facto anti-white racism or anti-Asian racism or racism of any kind.” ADL literally defined racism as: “the marginalization and/or oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges White people.” Such that white people can't be discriminated against. The ADL is a Jewish run organization. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Defamation_League https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Defamation_League I agree with Elon on this. I don't think this is anti-semitic, this is calling out Jewish communities for anti-white racism. It's kind of disgusting that in your haste to demonize Musk you cherry pick your information instead of trying to get to the truth. Jewish communities are not some totally innocent group of people they have flaws just like the rest of human beings and calling them out is not "anti-semitic".

    > I agree with Elon on this. I don't think this is anti-semitic, this is calling out Jewish communities for anti-white racism. Musk apparently doesn't agree with this tweet anymore, a while after his tweet he apologized and called it his dumbest post ever. Why did he do that, instead of explaining his tweet the way you did? > It's kind of disgusting that in your haste to demonize Musk you cherry pick your information instead of trying to get to the truth. I'm only following Elons own words on this topic - he disagrees with the statements he made, and explained that he simply hadn't come into contact with a lot of anti-semitism before. Why did he do all of that, if he doesn't see any anti-semitism in the original post?
