Summary

Elon Musk escalated controversy over accusations that his salute at a Trump rally resembled a “Sieg heil” by posting Nazi-related jokes on X, referencing figures like Rudolf Hess and Joseph Goebbels.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) initially defended Musk, urging “a bit of grace” and “benefit of the doubt,” but later condemned his Holocaust-related jokes as offensive.

Critics highlighted Musk’s history of promoting far-right conspiracy theories and enabling neo-Nazi content on X, raising concerns about increasing offensive rhetoric on the platform.
