(JNS) Elon Musk posted on X on Friday, Nov. 17: “At risk of stating the obvious, anyone advocating the genocide of *any* group will be suspended from this platform.”
He did not respond to a comment from New York Post reporter Jon Levine, asking if Twitter would suspend Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), who posted that “from the river to the sea” is an “an aspirational call for freedom, human rights and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction or hate.”
He also wrote that “‘decolonization,’ ‘from the river to the sea’ and similar euphemisms necessarily imply genocide. Clear calls for extreme violence are against our terms of service and will result in suspension.”
The new posts garnered praise from Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO and national director of the Anti-Defamation League. “This is an important and welcome move by Elon Musk,” Greenblatt wrote. “I appreciate this leadership in fighting hate.”
