Depressing to look back on this thread almost a year later. https://twitter.com/EladNehorai/status/1725619782152806429

And why is that? Because the media and many mainstream observers and leaders STILL give Musk some magical benefit of the doubt.

I’ll let you fill in the blanks as to why this is. But suffice to say this is why we all here need to take responsibility to spread the word.

In fact, the tweet I shared above is from 2022. It’s more than a year and a half ago.

And yet still: we are not getting blaring headlines that this incredibly powerful man just supported Germany’s most far right party since the Nazi Party.

Why? Because of his trolling style.

You need to understand that Musk is just a 4chan troll who happens to be the second richest man in the world.

These trolls use the same tactics Musk uses, such as asking “innocent” questions and masking bigotry as irony.

Musk does this constantly....

Musk has openly supported neo-Nazis on this platform. He has reinstated them. He has platformed them.

This is not an outlier. It’s how he works. There is example after example of this. It’s not just a trend: it’s just how he operates....

This language endangers American Jews in ways that are hard to describe. We are facing an urgent threat.

And more importantly: it highlights how support for Israel is weaponized against American Jews. We are *expected* to have dual...

The flirtations themselves continued. Only 2 months after Musk took over Twitter, he was interacting with openly antisemitic accounts.

As he does quite often, he was "just asking questions," so his hate was often ignored.

By January of 2023, a few months after Musk took over, outlets were reporting on the rise of antisemitism.

At the time, I was pitching these same outlets on the fact that Musk himself was spreading antisemitism, but none were...

Throughout this process, Musk decimated the moderation teams.

This combination of his spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories, reinstating neo-Nazis and other far right accounts, and destroying moderation was beginning to snowball into a perfect storm of mainstreamed hate.

I would give you more evidence of Musk reinstating folks like David Icke, but some of the people who were tweeting about it have been suspended by him, all while he has made sure that neo-Nazis stay here.

He reinstated people like Baked Alaska, Andrew Anglin, David icke, and others. As you are probably aware, this site is now overrun with these characters.

The important thing to understand is that this started early on, with few in the media covering...

Oops, got held up and couldn't finish this thread. Let's get back to it.

Elon Musk didn't just spread antisemitism. He worked overtime to reinstate the worst, once-banned neo-Nazis, far right extremists, white nationalists, and others to the...

It didn’t take long after Musk purchased and took over Twitter for him to start interacting with and spreading antisemitic messaging.

In May of 2022, months before he even bought Twitter, Musk began sharing Soros conspiracy theories. As usual, this is an early testing ground for coded antisemitism, a way to spread it in a way that is less likely to get pushback....

@POTUS @Pontifex This is a long thread, but I need people to understand just how bad this all is.

Get off. Whatever justification once existed is falling apart. It's not worth it.

See you anywhere else but here.

@POTUS So too for @Pontifex, for example.

Every single person here who carries the weight of a world leader is contributing to a massive disinformation and hate machine.

You should all be off here by now.

This goes even moreso for politicians and other leaders.

@POTUS so nice that you have a Threads account! But guess what? You being here is helping the most dangerous techno-fascist oligarch in America. You are fueling the extremism you claim to want to counter.

So the New York Times is getting drowned out, but it is simultaneously giving a veneer of crediibility to Twitter by remaining here.

In other words, it is helping the neo-Nazis. Any legitimate source of facts here is literally part of a disinformation machine.

neo-Nazi.

Want to know who is controlling the narrative Twitter on Israel and Gaza right now? It's not the New York Times or the Washington Post or even Fox News.

It is a network of seven accounts. They are all propaganda. At least one is a...

Second, if people rely on you for facts your mere presence here contributes to disinformation.

Because the message you are sending is that you are on Twitter because it is a platform where facts can be found. But no matter what, you will be drowned out by the Neo-Nazis.

And by the way: media companies, leaders, pundits, politicians, and anyone in the public eye. You DEFINITELY should not be here.

You are contributing to the problem.

First, people stick to this place because you are here. They go where you are.

You should not be here. None of us should be here. It is not good for us, and it is not worth whatever you may think you're getting out of it.
