Elon Musk on Monday posted that he was against antisemitism and blamed the Anti-Defamation League for lost advertising revenue since his acquisition of X, formerly known as Twitter.
"If this continues, we will have no choice but to file a defamation suit against, ironically, the 'Anti-Defamation' League," Musk wrote.
An email to attorneys representing Musk and X asking whether a complaint has been drafted was not immediately returned.
X filed a lawsuit last month against the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), a nonprofit organization that monitors hate speech and disinformation.
The ADL also posted a report in March accusing the platform of failing to take action against hate speech.
