IBM, a major advertiser on X, has pulled its spending from the social media platform, whose employees are grappling with what to tell its other advertisers, according to internal messages.
To be clear: Musk endorsed a tweet which used a false antisemitic conspiracy theory to tell people why “Hitler was right”
Yeah I tried, with the help of chatGPT, to translate that into english aswell, but the topic seemed a bit too hot for it.
What I think he’s trying to say is that since jews consider themselves an oppressed minority, they’re then more likely to be advocating for tolerance towards other such minorities aswell. In this context he’s probably refering to muslim immigrants in europe. However then he points out the fact that said muslims often aren’t especially tolerant of jews in general aswell as highlighting the apparent hypocrisy of non-jews often being treated as second class citizens in Israel by jews themselves.
I’m not sure if this is correct but that’s the best steelmanning I can come up with.
I think the main issue here is not so much the tweet above but the tweet this is replying to which was saying something like: “The people saying/implying that Hitler was right, why don’t you come out and tell what you’re actually saying” and then this guy goes like “Okay well here comes…” seemingly agreeing with the statement that “Hitler was right” and then Elon agreeing with the reply naturally looks pretty condemning.
