Elon Musk Says He'll Reinstate Twitter Account Of Hitler-Loving White Supremacist
Huff PostElon Musk said he will reinstate the account of notorious white supremacist Nick Fuentes. On Thursday, Musk said he planned to reinstate Fuentes’ account on X, formerly Twitter, after a “Groyper” account with a blue check mark asked Musk to bring Fuentes back. “Now, going and saying, ‘Vladimir Putin is Adolf Hitler,’ as if that isn’t a good thing,” Fuentes said during the conference, HuffPost reported at the time. “Oops, I shouldn’t have said that.” And in January 2023, he praised Hitler as “really fucking cool.” “‘Hitler was a pedophile and kind of a pagan,’” Fuentes mimicked critics of the dictator. Though Twitter didn’t clarify his return or suspension at the time, a reporter for the Southern Poverty Law Center said Fuentes praised Hitler and the Unabomber in a Twitter space, at one point saying that “Jews run the news” before he was banned again.
