    i mean this is just disingenuous–Musk is himself literally the richest man alive (or second, idk which), so obviously he doesn’t think being a billionaire is bad and he’s not criticizing Soros for being one. he’s criticizing him because he’s a Jewish billionaire, and Musk is a reactionary who wants the world to be a worse place. if Soros was funding white supremacist projects, Musk wouldn’t give a fuck

      No you’re the one being disingenuous. I asked a question, “How does calling a billionaire a villain make you a nazi?” It’s pretty straightforward. If calling George Soros a villain doesn’t make you a nazi, but there’s more context in the case of Elon Musk, that would have been a more insightful response to my question that could have been the start of a different discussion.

      But that’s not what @[email protected] said. Dax said “you don’t think calling a successful jewish guy a villain sounds like antisemitic-nazi nonsense?” This is an implicit claim that any person, not just Musk, who has an unfavorable view of any successful jewish person is antisemitic. That’s the claim I’m responding to and it has nothing about Musk!
