Musk made his comments during an attention-grabbing 90-minute interview at The New York Times DealBook Summit on Wednesday. Musk shocked audience members, many of whom were corporate executives, when he said companies that were pulling ads from X could go “f*ck themselves.”
At present, Coca-Cola, Microsoft, and Disney, among other woke businesses, have reportedly cost the company nearly $75 million in revenue after deciding to forgo advertising on the site. They allege that a recent post on X made by Musk about Jewish groups provoking hate against white Americans is “anti-Semitic.”
Musk vociferously rejected that claim Tuesday, adding, “If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money? Go f*ck yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is.”
Musk was asked by interviewer Andrew Ross Sorkin, a Jewish columnist for the Times who also serves as an anchor on CNBC, about how he has “moved decisively to the right” in recent years. Sorkin specifically wanted to know if he would be voting for Present Biden in 2024 if he faced off against Donald Trump again.
I think I would not vote for Biden,” Musk replied. “I’m not saying I’d vote for Trump, but I mean this is definitely a difficult choice here.”
“Would you vote for Nikki Haley?” Sorkin responded. “Nikki Haley, by the way, wants all social media names to be exposed as you know.”
“No, I think that’s outrageous. I’m not going to vote for some pro-censorship candidate.”
