If endorsing antisemitic posts wasn’t enough, Elon Musk has now advanced several rungs in the batshit conspiracy ladder into engaging with a post pushing Pizzagate.
Last week, Musk wrote “You have said the actual truth” in response to a post from an X user claiming Jewish people were responsible for promoting “dialectical hatred against whites.” The X owner promoting the antisemitic conspiracy theory drew widespread backlash, including from the White House.
The following morning, Media Matters, a nonprofit progressive media watchdog, published a study showing that X had been placing ads for major companies alongside posts featuring neo-Nazi and antisemitic rhetoric. Advertisers like Apple, Disney, IBM, Sony, Paramount, and Warner Brothers Discovery have since pulled their ads from the platform…
Musk responded over the weekend by threatening a “thermonuclear lawsuit” against Media Matters, and calling the nonprofit “evil.” As of Monday afternoon, no such lawsuit has been filed, although Musk is still posting about it, writing again on X that “Media Matters is Evil.” A user responding to Musk wrote that David Brock, the founder of the nonprofit, “was the Boyfriend of James Alefantis, owner of Comet Ping Pong Pizza, yes the Pizzagate restaurant. Alefantis, a pizza shop owner at that time, was on GQ’s 50 Most Powerful People in DC list.”
“Weird,” Musk replied.
How long until the founder of starlink starts saying the Earth is flat?
The irony and disconnect would be horribly, horribly amazing.
Are we starting a pool to take bets on this?
“High profile wingnut man-child, who bought Twitter for the express purpose of espousing wingnut political stances and to benefit fellow wingnut party members, blathers additional disproven wingnut conspiracy theory nonsense.”
Shocker!
Hey Musk fans. I thought this dude was smart?
Either yesterday or this morning, I once again saw someone arguing on Lemmy that he was definitely a rocket scientist because a bunch of kiss-asses were quoted as saying he knew everything about rockets. I have no idea why the legend persists.
He’s a rocket scientist in the same way anyone who plays Kerbal Space Program is a rocket scientist. They know much more than an average person, but not enough to actually do anything useful with it.
If you’re (general) still using Xitter, and you’re ashamed of that fact, remember that your continued use of the platform puts money into this man’s pocket.
Musk buys Comet Pizza and relocates all his child sex slaves there. “Once we get the cages installed, the Libs will be fully owned.”
Are people really still on the “Pizzagate” thing? I thought that died out a while back.

I know that they love to project when it comes to pedophile accusations.

At this point almost every outlet that has “truth” in the title almost certainly runs on delusion.
Elon continues to lose it. Nothing new.
Look can we just bust him for tax fraud now and save everyone a lot of unecessary grief?

That was a Kanye reference.
Well then I’m glad I got wooshed

JFC, pizzagate was stupid even by the low standards of the qon mindset.
How the fuck are we still doing this shit?!
I am waiting for Internet Historian’s video titled “Elon loses his Musk” in a couple years from now.
There is no such thing as an honest conservative. Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation.
Dishonesty is a core conservative trait. We should be teaching our children to recognize conservatives as untrustworthy.
Lol, that’s some great trolling
