Jewish Groups Abandon X Over 'Toxic Speech' and Elon Musk's Promotion of Antisemitism
Several Jewish organizations have decided to leave the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, citing concerns over increasing antisemitic content and the platform's owner, Elon Musk's, role in promoting such material.
These groups argue that under Musk's leadership, content moderation has decreased, leading to a surge in hate speech targeting Jewish communities.
The tipping point for many was Musk's recent engagement with known antisemitic figures and his amplification of their messages. Leaders within these organizations emphasize the importance of creating safe online spaces and express disappointment over the platform's current direction.
They call for accountability and urge other communities to reconsider their presence on X until significant changes are implemented.
