Elon Musk Defends Hitler, Mao and Stalin
“Elon Musk’s disgusting defense of Hitler, Stalin and Mao is deranged.”
By Victor Tangermann, Futurism
Unelected White House advisor Elon Musk retweeted a post on Thursday that blamed the atrocities committed by Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Mao Zedong on — we are not making this up — public sector workers.
“Stalin, Mao, and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people,” the post, which he shared to his over 200 million followers, reads. “Their public sector workers did.”
The baffling tweet further highlights Musk’s toxic embrace of extreme right-wing beliefs. The billionaire’s well-documented antisemitism came to a head earlier this year when he performed two Hitler salutes during Trump’s inauguration celebration. Musk has also made light of the Holocaust by making distatestul Nazi puns on his social media network.
