I have no idea what Musk actually posted/retweeted, so I have no idea whether his companies ought to suffer any consequences.

Was it so offensive that no one dares to repeat it?

"The ADL unjustly attacks the majority of the West, despite the majority of the West supporting the Jewish people and Israel. This is because they cannot, by their own tenets, criticize the minority groups who are their primary threat. It is not right and needs to stop"

 

That is the post that has everyone upset. It is clearly against the ADL, not Jews, and it is correct. If you don't think the Jewish peoples number one threat is Hamas then you are too stupid for this conversation

Innocuous enough by itself. 

There were other comments associated by that poster that were more provocative (offensive? eye of the beholder) that come pretty close to the whole great replacement thing. Musk seems to be all over the place, retweeting things without digging deeper, so I will give him a pass on this one, assuming that he didn't do a deeper dig on what this particular poster had also said.

I think we agree on this, the "quotes" are intentionally 3 words long because the whole thing is not nearly as bad as what they want you to believe they are. Musk should likely pay more attention to who he is quoting but sometimes we make mistakes. This is actually similar to a friend of mine who was accused of being a white supremacist by the Orlando Sentinel for retweeting a white supremacist, which was a stupid accusation because my friend is the descendant of slaves.

Is that moron still alive?  I thought for sure he'd have had a fatal stroke by now.

What do you expect from a party/people who support a group of people who hate women, LGBTQ+ and Jews (and in some cases, ironically, Muslims)...just as long as they're in another country. :rolleyes:
