I don’t understand what you’re saying, but there’s really no good reason to paste another person’s fucked up racial delusions. The current brand of antisemitism is absolute bullshit and has no place here or anywhere, even being pasted. It’s not only completely stupid to believe this stuff, but the simple act of spreading it makes it worse. It’s dangerous stupidity.

I think this attitude is the reason that Elon is going to get away with agreeing with the statement in public. Most stories tiptoe around how extreme the statement is, and as a result he is now successfully deflecting on the issue.

The quoted tweet remains endorsed by the wealthiest and most powerful person on the planet. Hard to read? Disturbing? Yes, of course it is.

Some context. I grew up in Germany, have Jewish friends and have visited Nazi concentration camps. I see why you feel that posting such hate speech is hurtful and gives hateful people a platform. At the same time closing the eyes in front of terrible things, makes these terrible things a lot more likely to keep existing. Here in Germany we show our schoolchildren age 16 or so, documentations about Nazi concentration camps and even make them visit them. It's not meant as a platform to spread Nazi ideology, but rather meant to face the reality of what happens when you let fascism dominate politics. In this situation we have Elon Musk endorsing unquestionably antisemitic content. By hiding what he endorsed, it makes it a lot easier to ignore the gravity of the situation and moving the topic away from it, as done here. I personally believe in this situation the importance of precisely characterizing the kind of hate speech Elon Musk endorses outweighs the risk of spreading Nazi ideology. So I commend OP for posting it here verbatim.
