I think being an antisemite should get you booted, personally. But you'll be busy morning till night if you implement that standard while the Gaza thread is still going so hot and heavy.
Criticism of Israel is not antisemitism. Especially when Israel is currently murdering thousands of innocent children, women and elderly.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
― Jean-Paul Sartre
I am pretty sure Musk is completely unaware of his absurdity.
Oh please. Smart enough to launch rockets into space but too stupid to know he's tweeting out vicious anti-semitic tropes?
Come on.

It's nuts.
Jews are white people, many of whom pretend to be non-whites so they can join the anti-white pile-on. Many actual non-whites go along with the charade.
Well, clearly white supremacists don't think they're white, judging by the tweet and the conspiracy theory behind it.
But if you're on the younger side, I can confirm that Jews were absolutely not considered white until around twenty years ago, when being white became a bad thing. As you can see from the comment you responded to, Jews are whatever people deem to be a negative. Jews might might not have been considered "people of color" (that term is a relatively new one), but they were considered "other" than white.

Elon thinks the “truth” is the same thing as what the guy who shot up the synagogue in Pittsburgh thought was “the truth.” Do you get it now?
Sorry, I still don’t find the language clear. Also - Not sure there’s a connection between this language and the Pittsburgh shooting either.
It's a conspiracy theory that Jews, who control the world, have been trying to kill off white people (through porn, abortion, feminism, etc.) and import minorities to replace them.
But why would Jews want minorities to replace white people when they themselves are white?

X Races to Contain Damage After Elon Musk Endorses Antisemitic Post
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/16/technology/elon-musk-endorses-antisemitic-post-ibm.html
Yup. “X employees said they had gotten calls from advertisers wondering why Musk was “making comments seen as antisemitic and why their ads were showing up next to white nationalist and Nazi content, according to internal messages.”
It actually makes a lot of sense. Twitter's core demographic is terminally-online young leftists, and they all support Palestine. So this is a "hello fellow young people" moment.

It’s more complicated than that. Westerners don’t seem to know that when Europeans were busy killing and persecuting Jews (Spanish inquisition, Pogroms in Russia, Holocaust in Germany, etc..). Many Jews were living peacefully in Muslim lands (North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia etc.)
