I don't follow Musk's utterances. Is this a joke or something Musk has actually said?
- UncleMeat 10mo agoMusk responded "you have said the actual truth" to a tweet saying this.
- tim333 10mo agoThough he apologised: >"I'm sorry for that tweet or post," Musk said Wednesday. "It was foolish of me."
- ModernMech 10mo agoThat apology is for posting it, not for believing it.
- defrost 10mo agoWhen Musk purchased and rebranded Twitter as X he also unbanned a large number of accounts famed for Nazi and similar race based content. He has famously thumbs-ed up significant chunks of such content and in the event mentioned here replied to an explicit statement (as outlined about) as being "the actual truth". See, eg: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67446800 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67446800 He is an unquestionable fan of Nazi like content, many will shrug it off as his grandfather was an actual Nazi fan (having to move from Canada(?) to South Africa because of such beliefs), and his uncle (IIRC, certainly a close family relative) was a senior member of the South African apartheid government.
