No its ok the ADL said it was ok, its like when a random white guy says the N word and he has the one black friend that can just speak for all people of his race that said it was fine.

It’s even worse considering the ADL was sued by Musk, after Musk said Jews hated white people and blamed the ADL for the drop in advertiser revenue on X. (Edit: Musk tweeted he was suing the ADL and did blame them but I don’t know if he actually took them to court or not)

The ADL tried to back him anyway because they decided political support for Israeli government meant they would try to overlook his statements. Then he started making Nazi jokes the next day and they had to condemn him.

How fucking sad is that, you are built on making sure we remember the sins of the past, and you overlook the past heading for you for money. The same past that killed millions of them, this time it might not be as many of them, but if all goes to plan millions will be punished.

Even sadder to ignore what the Israeli government itself is doing to tens of thousands of Palestineans.

So, this dude does a clear Nazi salute, openly in front of the presidential seal, with the entire USA watching, and nothing is done about it? Democrats are all pussies. We need to hurt Nazis like him, and all democrats have done is fucking finger waggle with protests that no one will care about in a few weeks.

To be fair, nobody of any political stance did anything about it whatsoever.

To be fair, he has a security detail and a fortress home.

Tesla and Shitter can both fail and he'll still be fine as long as they get Starship working reliably. Kessler Syndrome is probably the only move left that he's afraid of.
