Since Elon Musk has bought X, formerly Twitter, the controversies have not stoppedor splashing the social network either by removing the headlines of links to published articles or by the billionaire’s tweets. Now another one is added. During an interview at the DealBook Summit of the newspaper ‘The New York Times’ he attacked companies that withdraw their advertising.

«I don’t want them to have publicity. “If someone is going to blackmail me with advertising or money, go to hell,” she said after advertisers like Disney, Discovery o Warner Bros suspended their ads on the platform due to a tweet by Elon Musk in which he endorsed an anti-Semitic comment in which it was said that Jews promoted “hatred against whites.”

«They have been promoting exactly the type of dialectical hatred against whites that they want people to stop using against them,” said a tweet from a user to which Elon Musk commented that he had told “the real truth.” Seeing the commotion that his message caused, he began to explain himself, although he clarified that he did not believe that hatred of whites extended “to all Jewish communities.”

In his comments he noted that the Anti-Defamation League promoted racism against whites and threatened to sue them for defamation after the organization said that anti-Semitism had increased in X with the arrival of Elon Musk.

During the DealBook Summit of the newspaper ‘The New York Times’ this controversial episode was highlighted and Elon Musk took the opportunity to apologize for a “silly” comment: “It was stupid on my part. Out of 30,000, it could literally be the worst and dumbest post I’ve ever posted. And I have done my best to clarify it, but at least I think it will be obvious that, far from being anti-Semitic, I am philo-Semitic,” she commented. To later criticize the decision of these companies and argue that he has no problem being hated: “There is a real weakness in wanting to please,” he stated.
