Last year, Musk met with a coalition of leftist groups, Color of Change (formerly founded by Van Jones) , the NAACP and the ADL and a number of others that were organizing boycotts of Twitter over ‘hate speech’. A total of 40 organizations including the ADL, GLAAD, the NAAC,P Muslim Advocates, National Hispanic Media Coalition, United Church of Christ and many others urged advertisers to boycott Twitter.
Musk blamed these groups for “a massive drop in revenue, due to activist groups pressuring advertisers, even though nothing has changed with content moderation and we did everything we could to appease the activists.”
Recently Musk rebooted these claims, but instead of addressing all of these groups which are still pressuring Twitter advertisers to drop their ads, he decided to blame only the ADL.

ADL is an evil marxist front and needs to be destroyed. Good on Musk for calling them out.
Greenfield always a must read.
Don’t care.
You were beat up by a group of bullies but can only produce evidence against one? Well you had better not do anything about it unless you can convict them all young man.
Is that the logic here?
Because personally I do not find it a logical line of reasoning.
It was never good for anything but under its current head, Jonathan Greenblatt, it's become a generic woke group dedicated to intersectionality.
Uh huh? And you have done what about them? You have written a few articles that have objectively done nothing.
But when someone else may you want to cry because he is not going after another group?
Yeah, let's be honest here. You would not be crying if he went after BLM but someone else on the "conservative" side would and they would use the exact same logic. And the logic stinks.
The ADL is a garbage leftist organization. It was never good for anything but under its current head, Jonathan Greenblatt, it’s become a generic woke group dedicated to intersectionality. I have spent over a decade exposing the ADL for what it is including, last week, for its decision to spend the anniversary of the Crown Heights Pogrom together with Al Sharpton in Washington D.C.
“A total of 40 organizations including the ADL, GLAAD, the NAAC,P Muslim Advocates, National Hispanic Media Coalition, United Church of Christ and many others urged advertisers to boycott Twitter.”
Perhaps so, but if you cut off the head of the snake, the group that is leading the effort, it gets MUCH TOUGHER for the followers (as in those other ones listed) to be effective.
I have NO DOUBT that Musk knows where the jugular is in this crap, as it’s his many billions at stake. As to this article, there might be a bit of ‘circling the wagons’ going on here.
I’m OK with Musk making the ADL the face of those pressuring advertisers. Anything that takes them down a notch is OK by me.
I love how the left is painting the adl as ‘Jews’ in general now. They’re the same as the splc or alcu now
I will stop believing that when the ADL goes after Soros for his involvement with the Nazis during WWII, and his public denial that he felt any sense of guilt or remorse for what he did. He excused himself by saying that if he didn't do it, someone else would have.
Sounds like Linda Graham and abortion.
Go to war with them.
They had a woman that was on Twitter Spaces last night arguing for the censorship and the guests asked her if she still worked for Black Cube (Israeli intelligence).
She immediately deleted her account.
So is SPLC and to a large degree, the ACLU, who's name has always been an oxymoron.
The ADL is not a Jewish group.
It is a front for the socialist democrats and simply uses Jews and Judaism as a cover for its political activities.
Well that's your mistake, right there.
I’m sure he has the receipts
Black Cube is no more Israeli intelligence than Blackwater is the USA Marines.
Black Cube is a dirtbag organization of privateers that do dirty tricks for whomever hires them. They hire out of every organization, from the FBI to the FSB to the Mossad. It’s mainly just lawyers and accountants.
Well, the splash page states:
“A select group of veterans from the Israeli elite intelligence units that specialises in tailored solutions to complex business and litigation challenges”
So I’m guessing it’s Israeli intelligence.
Yup. Timothy Treadwell did everything he could to “befriend” and “appease” grizzly bears, but in the end, they ate him znd his girlfriend
