Elon Musk's social media platform X and its Nazi support and propaganda
Elon Musk's social media platform X is found to have a thriving hub for Nazi support and propaganda, with paid subscribers sharing pro-Nazi content, including speeches by Adolf Hitler and Holocaust denial theories, in violation of X's rules. Despite policies against hate speech, the platform does not appear to be consistently enforcing them. Advertisers, including SiriusXM and The Hollywood Reporter, have had their ads run alongside pro-Nazi content. Musk's early pledge to demonetize hate tweets seems to contradict the monetization of Nazi content on the platform. The proliferation of pro-Nazi content is attributed to Musk's decisions after buying the platform, which have made it difficult for researchers to measure extremism on X.
