Elon Musk hits back at ‘bogus’ claims he’s antisemitic: ‘Nothing could be further from the truth’

November 20, 2023 | | Print Article

Elon Musk slammed the media on Sunday for a slew of “bogus” stories claiming the billionaire is antisemitic after he agreed on X that “Jewish communities” have been pushing “dialectical hatred against whites.”

“This past week, there were hundreds of bogus media stories claiming that I am antisemitic,” Musk wrote. “Nothing could be further from the truth. I wish only the best for humanity and a prosperous and exciting future for all.”

Emotions were running high on his social media platform last week as people reacted to pro-Palestinian posts following the October 7th attack on Israeli citizens at the hands of Hamas terrorists who would like to see the Jewish nation wiped off the face of the earth.

The exchange at the center of the scandal began with a post from a user who challenged internet “cowards” to step out of the shadows.

“To the cowards hiding behind the anonymity of the internet and posting ‘Hitler was right’: You got something you want to say? Why dont you say it to our faces…”

In response, another user pointed out that “Jewish communities” have been “pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.”

“I’m deeply disinterested in giving the tiniest sh*t now about western Jewish populations coming to the disturbing realization that those hordes of minorities that support flooding their country don’t exactly like them too much,” the user stated. “You want truth said to your face, there it is.”

“You have said the actual truth,” Musk replied.

“The ADL [Anti-Defamation League] unjustly attacks the majority of the West, despite the majority of the West supporting the Jewish people and Israel,” he continued. “This is because they cannot, by their own tenets, criticize the minority groups who are their primary threat. It is not right and needs to stop.”

Musk has been publicly feuding with the ADL for some time now.

As BizPac Review previously reported, in September, the entrepreneur threatened the ADL with a lawsuit for allegedly costing him “roughly $22 billion” in advertiser dollars over his commitment to free speech on X.

Others have noted that wealthy Jewish donors have pulled their money from institutions such as Harvard in response to blatantly anti-Israel protests, but they did nothing when the universities embraced “woke” policies teaching that whites are inherently “wrong.”

“The rhetoric on college campuses hasn’t changed,” Candace Owens recently told Tucker Carlson. “Do you not remember what they were saying? What professors were saying? The anti-white explicit racism that was happening, and not even just allowed in terms of student protests, but was written into the curriculum at these universities for years? People were learning this actively in school, that whiteness was associated with wrongness.”

On X, Musk later softened his statement, writing that “this does not extend to all Jewish communities, but it is also not just limited to ADL.”

“And, at the risk of being repetitive, I am deeply offended by ADL’s messaging and any other groups who push de facto anti-white racism or anti-Asian racism or racism of any kind,” he added. “I’m sick of it. Stop now.”

But the damage was done. As publications and politicians seized on the narrative that Musk is antisemitic, top-name advertisers began pulling their ads from the platform.

On Friday, Musk vowed to file “a thermonuclear lawsuit against Media Matters” for spreading the smear.

“The split second court opens on Monday, X Corp will be filing a thermonuclear lawsuit against Media Matters and ALL those who colluded in this fraudulent attack on our company,” he stated.
