OUR Elon Musk launched a Twitter attack on George Soros, a frequent target of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, accusing him of hatred of humanity, days after the billionaire revealed he had sold a small stake in Tesla.

Musk first mentioned Soros when he was pressured by reporter Brian Krasenstein, who said the businessman is often turned into a punching bag because some oppose his “good intentions” because they “do not agree with his political beliefs.”

Then with a tweet Musk wrote that “Soros reminds me of Magneto,” the mutant anti-hero from the X-Men comic book series (in the Marvel universe, Magneto is a Holocaust survivor).

“You’re assuming they have good intentions,” Musk tweeted early Tuesday morning. “He’s not. He wants to destroy the very fabric of civilization. Soros hates humanity.” The CEO of SpaceX and Tesla provided no other evidence to support his claim.

Shortly thereafter, former UN special rapporteur on freedom of speech David Kay accused Musk of promoting anti-Semitic statements often associated with Soros. “Musk-led Twitter brings: high school versions of free speech, quisling about government demands, Soros-baiting anti-Semitism, 2nd amendment extremism—all in his own name.”

A few months ago, Musk caused another backlash. In November 2022, he published a photo of himself as a soldier. The Second World War with … a cage and three carrier pigeons on the back and the inscription “three unread messages“. He was a soldier in the German Wehrmacht, a member of the combined Nazi armed forces, carrying carrier pigeons on the Western Front during the German invasion of France, known as the Battle of France, in The Second World Wararound May 1940.

Musk’s attack on Soros comes just days after it was revealed that billionaire investor hedge fund group Soros Fund Management sold all of its shares in electric car maker Tesla in late March.

The Soros group owned about 132,000 Tesla shares at the end of 2022 but sold its entire stake in the first months of 2023 after the shares surged 68% from January to March this year. However, Tesla shares have fallen about 11% over the past month. The Soros-backed hedge fund also sold other stocks from its portfolio, including Amazon and Alphabet stocks.
