Elon Musk claims social media platform X has least antisemitic content

Elon Musk, the owner of X, formerly known as Twitter, said on Monday at a conference focused on combating antisemitism that audits commissioned by the company have shown its platform contains less antisemitic content compared to other social media.

“The outside audits that we have had done... show that there is the least amount of antisemitism on X, if you look at all the other social apps,” he said at the conference.

In September, a collective of 100 Jewish leaders, encompassing notable rabbis and scholars, published an open letter condemning X and Elon Musk, accusing them of facilitating a “new stage of antisemitic discourse”.

According to their letter, Musk has disseminated various posts they characterised as antisemitic, and they highlighted that he has shown support for or amplified other similar remarks.
