  + stars: | 2024-01-23 | by ( Opinion Frida Ghitis | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +9 min
CNN —Elon Musk, who spends much of his time on futuristic endeavors, took a step into history on Monday. Like in other entities where an upsurge in antisemitic activity started making headlines, Musk was taking performative action at Auschwitz. It was an effort to appear to be taking action while doing nothing. After his visit to the death camp, Musk appeared at a conference on antisemitism in nearby Krakow, Poland. President Claudine Gay was asked in Congress if calls for genocide against Jews violate Harvard rules against bullying and harassment.

☆ Elon Musk's grandfather belonged to a political party that believed the world should be governed by technology. Newspapers at the time described it as having 'the tone of an incipient Fascist movement

Elon Musk's grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, was a "radical conspiracy theorist," the Atlantic reports. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe organization also referred to people as numbers (apparently, Musk's grandfather was 10450-1) and sometimes added Xs to their names. A newspaper cited by the magazine said the group gave off "the tone of an incipient Fascist movement ." Like grandfather, like grandsonHistorians note Musk's ideas that technology can solve most of society's ills reflect some of the same technocratic beliefs his grandfather promoted. Haldeman, Musk's maternal grandfather, was born in 1902 in the US before his family moved to Canada at a young age.

☆ Why do people buy crackpot conspiracy theories?
  + stars: | 2023-01-26 | by ( Adam Rogers | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +13 min
When it comes to the spread of cockamamie conspiracy theories, Twitter was a maximum viable product long before Elon Musk paid $44 billion for the keys. The more you think you're right all the time, a new study suggests, the more likely you are to buy conspiracy theories, regardless of the evidence. It'd be better, or at least more reassuring, if conspiracy theories were fueled by dumb yahoos rather than self-centered monsters. Still, most scientists thought conspiracy theories weren't worth their time, the province of weirdos connecting JFK's death to lizard aliens. Pennycook's findings also suggest an explanation for why conspiracy theories have become so widely accepted.
☆ Kanye West's antisemitic rants are the tip of a much longer spear
  + stars: | 2022-10-25 | by ( Tal Lavin | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
Recent comments by Kanye West, now known as Ye, echo ancient antisemitic tropes, writes Tal Lavin. Over on Instagram, where I'd posted a picture of me cuddling a goat, someone commented: "Kanye West was right about you people." But these sentiments are just the tip of a much longer spear. Ye's comments in particular echo a very long history of antisemitic tropes — tropes that have left a trail of blood in their wake. On "Drink Champs" Ye spit into the mic about the evils of the "Jewish media."
