The site is literally bought, paid for, and owned by a nazi.
Next question.

Because X is owned by a pro-hitler probably Holocaust-denying shit heal.
He doesn't deny the holocaust. He sees it as a good idea.
It's quite common for nazis to do both. "The death count is inflated, but they deserved it anyway/I wish it were more" and such.
Nazis do both at the same time because they lie

*that did a Nazi salute.
*shitheel
You know why.
Also, get off Twitler
It might seem trivial, but this stupid headline points to one reason Republicans have been winning. Everyone (notably journalists) still feels the need to "play the game" as they've always known it.
Oh, Candidate A said something? The game rules say you now have to run a quote in response from Candidate B.
But when Candidate B is an openly corrupt, lying, fascist, rapist shitpile who can't make it to the potty in time and is in the pocket of Russia, maybe take the fucking gloves off at some point and stop pretending you can or SHOULD be impartial. Here, watch:

It's not perfect, yet still worlds better.

Because they're scared. Print that, get buried in lawsuits by the richest edge lord in history.
You have to be smarter than this and actually defund his backers. Make it incredibly hard for them to be associated with him. Show him as a losing proposition.
As long as he's winning, people are buying Tesla's, the US is financing public money into space X, and multinationals are active and paying for Twitter then nothing is going to change.
Tesla sales are dropping and drivers are getting harassed already, we'll see I guess.

Stop asking questions when you know the answer.
Because pro-Hitler, Holocaust-denying content aligns with the platforms ownership and doesn’t receive an appropriate response from a user base who learned about aliens on History and history on Fox News entertainment.
Why is water wet?
Why is there steak at the steakhouse??
is this a rhetorical question?
Yes, the article is meant to expose that the rules of X literally don't prevent pro Nazi content. And history falsification is also allowed.
The second part is illegal in many countries. Even if Nazi propaganda is legal, which it also isn't in some countries.

How is that a serious question? Are they trying to be deliberately obtuse, or are they just fucking stupid?
Just asking questions makes it harder to sue under English libel law.
Look at the difference.
Elon musk is a Nazi.
A clear factual statement leaves room for disagreement. Maybe he's just an edgelord fascist radicalized by 4chan but doesn't have enough fashion sense to be a Nazi.
Elon musk is a Nazi?
Perfectly safe.
Interesting. I hadn't considered that possibility.
Sure it's an ad and not just the owner's tweets?
It says it's an ad in the post at the top right

Oh yeah, I too hate Hitler only because of Schindlers list. I grew up in Europe in the 80s and there is absolutely no other reason than that movie why we should hate him, really! The guy could do no wrong, he even loved dogs! Hell, he even painted! Bos Ross paints too, why would you hate Bob Ross? Don't hate Hitler, he's like Bob Ross!
I feel like I need to shower and apologize to Bob after writing this.

Because look who's running it, that's why. If Musk isn't a full-blown Nazi, he's at minimum a Nazi sympathizer, which is still really bad.

This is it for the curious:
This is just related:
It's the new Apple ad campaign
Gee I wonder why. Truly a mystery for the chronicles. /s
Because X is a nazi bar. For nazi's. Nazi's like this kind of thing.
You know why. We all know why.
Because we all saw this coming after everybody voted for Trump last November. If you didn’t see it coming then you were just part of their plan.
I don't think the question is if there was one.
The question is, would anyone be surprised if there was?
Cuz its X, that's why. I really don't know why we tolerate this shit, or why people still use that site.

I have added Elon to my block keywords, but lately the circlejerk had somehow seeped its way out onto my feed.
Could anyone share other blocked terms they find effective?
