So that means you are immune to all sort of criticism and anyone who disagrees with you is a nazi?

How is someone doing a clear Nazi salute on national television "debunked," exactly?
Funny thing is he's done a "heart goes out to you" gesture on stage many times before, and it looks nothing like the Nazi salute he did last week.
“after Musk made antisemitic comments” 🤥🤣😂🥲 It's always fun to confirm that MacRumors is just as hard left progressive, dishonest, and gaslighting as some of the more deranged commenters here. Great work guys. 👍😅
I am sorry for your loss. What we all lost is....horrific to say the least.
I will not try to convince you of what you saw. Your views are your views and it's not my place to say whether they're right or wrong.
ADL says ‘awkward’ Musk gesture ‘not a Nazi salute’: ‘This is a delicate moment’
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a nonprofit focused on combating antisemitism, defended tech billionaire Elon Musk’s “awkward” gesture during a Monday celebratory event which some critics panned as a fascist salute. “This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our...

That will do nothing. People need to stop buying Apple products then Cook will listen (or whomever replaces him). Vote with your wallet.
The ADL themselves said it's not a salute. Obviously they don't speak for everyone, but are you calling them liars? My point was more that your post simply throws nazi, -ism, -phobic everywhere. These words have lost all meaning because of overuse in posts like yours. You have no argument aside from "X people bad" so I summed it up and asked "what now?" to see if you had something substantive.
No but community notes is a better solution than some already biased 3rd party fact checkers that were hired. You full well know as I do that the 3rd party fact checking was a basis for censorship. And Meta, to their credit, dumped them too. But it seems coincidental that people are warming back up to X once Zuckerberg announced that 3rd party fact checking on Facebook was nixed.
He said claiming Jews "have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them" is the truth.
If you need someone to explain why this is antisemitism, I feel sorry for you.

That's not "debunked," that's one group's (idiotic) opinion.
Yes.
Around 500 million+ is a lot of eyeballs.
California had a net decrease in population the other year but it’s still a big state. Your argument doesn’t hold water.
So you think a third party offering its own opinion on something is "censorship?"
It has no more than 300 million daily active users, and that's including millions of bots and using Musk's obviously unreliable numbers.
Judging by your responses to me and others in this thread, I’m grateful to know that you are willing to have an open mind and have absolutely no bias. None whatsoever.
No, just people who defend antisemites who make nazi salutes, if I can guess what he meant.
Yes when the platform uses it as an instrument to shadow ban or remove posts with countervailing opinions. At least with Community Notes, the platform itself isn't engaging in shadowbanning or removing posts.
Explain away til they cart you away.
That's amazing, because the real Nazis and pro-Hamas antisemites were defeated in November.
Elon is such a nazi he went to Israel to show his support for the Jewish people after October 7th. Anyone who believes otherwise is a tool of the MSM.
The ironic part is I always see people champion the ADL when they’re standing against so-called far-right extremists (Proud Boys et al.).
Now it’s fingers in the ears when the ADL propose the idea that Elon isn’t a Nazi.
Trump has promised to start threatening Tariffs as retaliation for other countries suing American businesses for breaching local laws, given Apple is in the news quite often for legal battles around the globe, Tim probably sees this as a potential way to get on the current administration's good side considering Musk never seems to leave Trumps ear.
The ADL has its opinion, which is contradicted by clear video evidence as well as plenty of differing opinions. I don't think they're lying, but I do think the group has clear ulterior motives and every reason to suck up to Trump, so I take its opinion with a pretty big grain of salt.
And I don't disagree at all that many words have been overused. But racism, homophobia, transphobia, antisemitism, etc. absolutely do exist and are absolutely exploding on X, with the explicit endorsement of Elon. He has responded positively to multiple posts from explicit white nationalists and antisemites (like they literally say in their bios that they are).
