This accusation would have a little more zing, if the person who owns the other place wasn't posting about white replacement almost every day. Pretty shitty that ones choice of social media is so politicized but if you must pick a side... I will pick the non-nazi side, thank you very much!

Yeah, not sure why I'd spend a minute of my time on a social media site where the owner's boosted comments literally make me feel physically ill.

    Personally endorsed by Musk: "If white men become a minority, we will be slaughtered. Remember, if non-Whites openly hate White men while White men hold a collective majority, then they will be 1000x times [sic] more hostile and cruel when they are a majority over whites. White solidarity is the only way to survive." https://religiondispatches.org/2026/01/09/musk-endorsed-white-nationalism https://religiondispatches.org/2026/01/09/musk-endorsed-whit... And this is "anodyne" to you? Personally, I want absolutely nothing to do with these cretins. Being in the same virtual space with them makes me feel dirty, let alone using a platform actually owned by one of them. I wouldn't go to Stormfront to discuss gaming news, either.

      Musk’s “endorsed” statement is weak because it overgeneralizes, treats racial categories as coherent agents, and pessimistically assumes institutional failure. But none of that makes it unspeakable or uniquely dangerous. What’s notable is what the statement doesn’t contain: no call to violence or illegal action, no dehumanization, no demand for exclusion, and no rejection of individual rights or constitutional order. Those absences matter, because they’re the thresholds that normally justify treating speech as exceptional rather than refutable. Treating a contestable prediction as a moral emergency is exactly the reaction I was pointing at. At that point the objection becomes about perceived ideological contamination. Equivalent — and equivalently weak — arguments are accepted prima facie from others when they’re framed in the language of vulnerability and historical grievance. “White supremacy” has become a catch-all classifier that short-circuits analysis asymmetrically, while similar reasoning elsewhere passes without scrutiny.
