Elon Musk agrees with X post that claims Jews 'push hatred' against White people

Source: CNN

Agreeing with an antisemitic post on his social media platform X, Elon Musk endorsed the claim that Jewish communities push “hatred against Whites.”

An X post Wednesday afternoon said: “Jewish communties (sic) have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” The post also referenced “hordes of minorities” flooding Western countries, a popular antisemitic conspiracy theory.

In response, Musk said: “You have said the actual truth.”

[snip]

Musk, in subsequent posts, said he does not believe hatred of White people extends “to all Jewish communities.” But he said the Anti-Defamation League “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.”

And when this gets around to all of us, he lost a whole lot of good will too. .........................
And, "STUPID IS STILL STUPID."
Musk may be very rich, but he is just as stupid as that other jerk!...

Musk opened a book that shows who he really is. People who are in the public eye should never open that book. "TOO STUPID TO KNOW HE IS STUPID"....elleng has it totally correct....."true asshole"...

Does it extend to religion and language spoken?

Like, if you have a bit of an all year round tan, aren't Christian and don't speak English, the latter two indicate you definitely aren't in the 'white club'?

What does he think Trump is? Skin color indeterminate, doesn't go to church, doesn't speak English?

Elon, brain in gear before fingers on keyboard, if you please!

Elon is starting to remind me of the life of Howard Hughes more every day.

I haven't heard about him in a long time. But yeah, he and Musk have some similarities. They can't handle the money they have. Money can fuck some people up, and Hughes and Musk are prime examples.

And, Musk is a fucking white supremacist asshole.

It's all stupidity. Nazis don't have a consistent ideology because it's all based on lies, hate and imaginary difference.

Musk is obviously a Nazi. And he spouts nonsense like all of them. We beat the crap out of them in WWII, and we can beat the crap out of them in political battles.

It's such a shame that my father, and many others, died to fight off the Nazi threat that Repblicons like Musk embrace.

But then Musk wasn't born in the US himself. So, maybe he's ignorant of the US involvement in beating the Nazis like him. Republicons like Musk aren't big about learning US history. He's from South Africa after all.

My wife is 2% sub Saharan African in her DNA.
(Curtesy of a US GI in WW2 who did a rude thing to an innocent British lass.)

Is she not white, Elon?

Elon - Might she be a Jewish undercover agent, and should I divorce her? (Or should you just STFU?)

I wonder what Elon's DNA looks like!

But I like Elon. Makes me feel quite normal in comparison.
