The account also seemed fixated on people from India, writing “Normalize Indian hate” and supporting a so-called “eugenic immigration policy,” tweets that are shocking to normal people but have become fairly typical on extremist social media platforms like X.
What a champ. I like gizmodos framing of twitter as an extremist platform though, that’s a fun development that we should normalise.
I’m pleasantly surprised it didn’t get him a pay rise instead
Do we know that? Probably a vice president at tesla now.
Hahah. Yeah he ‘resigned’. More like he was told to get out because they can’t actually SAY they’re racist, they just DO racist things.
I dont understand why they can’t at this point. What difference would it actually make?
They still need plausible deniability to interact with the rest of the world. I bet a lot of European countries would formally ban Musk or Musk-controlled companies if he literally said “sieg heil”, but right now they’re just side-eyeing him.
That still sounds unrealistic at this point.
I’m kinda surprised it’s enough really. To prompt quitting.
It’s a tacitly approved racist platform and he’s approved by the government to be in the system working.
“I would not mind at all if Gaza and Israel were both wiped off the face of the Earth,”
right there folks. case closed. nothing else disqualified him.
Ah, the same thing my dad’s buddy said that got him blocked. “Turn it all to glass” ffs.
Ah yes, the Zero state solution.
Aha!
Thank you for sleuthing that out. Not something I was equipped to read at the time due to…
… foreseen psychedelics tbh.
Bro, were you doomscrolling while tripping balls? Seems like a recipe for the ultimate panic attack.
Sounds like more mental gymnastics to blame the Jews
Hi there. Jew here. Very sensitive to bigotry too. How is that blaming the Jews? I’m sure you can find him being actually bigoted against Jews if you make an effort.
Sure buddy
M’fer going to try to hide. Bitch, justice will find you.
“Justice will find you?” What country do you think this asshole lives in?
Why resign? Going mask off is being normalized on the right. I’m thinking this is something else. He probably asked for a bathroom break or refused a 2am blood transfusion.
Maybe his mom yelled at him?
She gave him the ol’ ‘very disappointed’ speech
He resigned because he can still feel shame, which is a dealbreaker in his position.
Yeah, I sincerely doubt that’s the reason.
Fire the HR team too, if they even have one, I mean how does a glaring liability like ability to feel shame or a conscience make it even into the resume pile?
Good thing they vetted him before they let him into our systems like they would any other time.
Oh wait my bad.
So he’s going to ‘take some time to figure out his next moves’ while doing the same thing but surreptitiously, while Musk throws some pocket change at him.
A nazi isn’t going to walk away from the opportunity to hurt people.
Hell of a good thumbnail for the article.
It should be the standard stock photo for musk stories.
Was surprised (and very happy) that that photo is now on Musk’s Wikipedia entry.
Wasn’t this a volunteer position with no pay, FAFO.
