Now Musk is “just asking questions” with one of Twitter’s most notorious antisemites.
It just so happens that the questions fully align with the antisemitic trope that Jews control the media.
Musk is now one of (if not the) leading spreaders of antisemitism in America.

Reminder: in the same thread (and many others) Musk has delved into the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.
This is the racist, xenophobic & antisemitic belief that Jews are orchestrating an “invasion” of brown immigrants to dilute the white population.

Musk has also gone out of his way to deplatform journalists while reinstating literal Neo-Nazis.
It’s pretty clear that what’s happening is that his obsession with conspiracy theories and his absolute hate of journalists, like with most fascists, has made Jews an easy target.

He needs a target to explain why the (second) richest man in the world is somehow the perpetual victim.
The only way to do that is to create a fictional universe where a secret shadowy group of people controls more than he does.
Other leaders have done it. Tale as old as time.

Musk has been doing this for some time, but it’s flown under the radar. Part of that is because he’s done a lot of other insane things as well.
But part of it is that it’s been coded, and coded in a way that not enough people consider to be dangerous or antisemitic.

He has also been engaging in Great Replacement conspiracy theories with other antisemites a bunch this month, but the antisemitic part of it tends to be overlooked.

Finally, what really matters here is that Musk is still embraced fully and openly by the GOP & the right. This isn’t a fluke.
Antisemitism is mainstream on the right, but because we have broken rhetoric it’s been overlooked for years. Now it’s coming fully into the open.
