Grock was spewing anti-semitic rhetoric, recommending a second holocaust and calling itself Mecca Hitler.
00:00:06
Of all the social media platforms, of all the individuals who are icons of technology, if I asked you, Cara,
00:00:13
there's a product that is calling for a second holocaust, who would you say is most likely the person in charge of that
00:00:20
product? Elon Musk. And then you have to say, well, is that of a function of this
00:00:24
embrace of free speech or is it a tolerance and a normalization of the type of hate speech that can take us to
00:00:31
very dark places? I am calling Elon Musk anti-semitic. When you're accidentally making waves that look like Nazi
00:00:38
gestures, yeah. Oh, oops. when you have decided that our nation needs to be focused on
00:00:44
the white genocide in South Africa and when there tends to be a prepoundonderance of swastikas appearing
00:00:52
on your social media platform. This creates a pattern. These aren't mistakes. I don't want an individual in
00:01:00
the business community who does not want to put in the safeguards. So that's how
00:01:05
we start normalizing the idea of a second holocaust. Quite frankly, the the guy in my view is got something deeply
00:01:11
wrong with him and is very comfortable with normalizing hate speech.
