Comment on Elmo is on fire
rustyfish@lemmy.world 1 day agoEhm. I thought this was just some fake tweet. Didn’t know he got hacked. It can’t be that bad?
Spoiler
Background On July 13th, 2025, the official @Elmo X[1] account posted at least three tweets that were deemed controversial and antisemitic. The first reads, “Kill all Jews.” The second reads, “RELEASE THE FILES @realDonaldTrump CHILD FUCKER,” referring to the Epstein files. The third reads, “Elmo says ALL JEWS SHOULD DIE. FUCK JEWS. DONALD TRUMP IS NETANYAHU’S PUPPET BECAUSE HE IS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES. JEWS CONTROL THE WORLD AND NEED TO BE EXTERMINATED.”
Oh. Oh no.

Or Elon facilitates a hack/made it look like Elmo was hacked to deliver these tweets. You’ll never know, there is no oversight and no accountability for billionaire media empires.

Besmirching Elmo’s good name. 😞 Awful.

Hmm, I guess I could see how some might read that as controversial and potentially antisemitic.

Well situations like this can be really ambiguous. It’s not as clear cut as “from the river to the sea”

Maybe he meant Jaws, like the shark that can never be truly killed. With his soul-less eyes…black eyes…like a dolls eyesssss…

“Kill all jaws” actually seems even worse (though less bigoted), given how many species have at least one of those…

I guess Jewish hating Nazis/Bigots can hate pedophiles too, which I can agree with… I mean, it’s like agreeing that everyone looks good in black.
