Elon Musk knows exactly what he's doing.

In the words of [Jake Tapper](https://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/1724922127206273338?ref=unprecedented.ghost.io), he is "pushing unvarnished anti semitism at a time of rising antisemitism and violence against Jews."

Musk knows that his "replies" to posts on X are scrutinized by journalists as eagerly as they are devoured by his proud fanboys.

And as Musk surely knows, his comment wasn't just a reply to a post. It was a reply to a reply. Go up one more level, and you see that Musk's "reply" is helping amplify a tweet defending the notion that it's OK to say, "Hitler was right."

With his comment, as *The Atlantic*'s [Yair Rosenberg](https://twitter.com/Yair%5FRosenberg/status/1724910188195348828?ref=unprecedented.ghost.io) points out, Musk is "literally" endorsing "the conspiracy theory espoused by the white supremacist who massacred the Pittsburgh Tree of Life synagogue."

On Threads, MSNBC's [Chris Hayes](https://www.threads.net/@chrislhayes/post/Czrwz4WO70e/?ref=unprecedented.ghost.io) put it like this: "This is really disgusting! I, too, am over the genre of 'The bad rich man said something bad' but HOLY LORD."

To quote Yair Rosenberg: "I have no further commentary."
