That’s a sensational headline.
” he began promoting a campaign by Keith Woods”
“The barrage began Saturday, when Musk liked a post by YouTube influencer Keith O’Brien”
Why didn’t Greenfield sight the Keith O’Brien post that Musk “Liked”? He included posts from years ago. I guess if you agree with something a despicable person says or does, that makes you just as bad?
Where’s the O’Brien quote that Musk “Liked”?
We should not stereotype. Having said that, there can be large swaths of people in any group that are biased, resentful, anti (fill in the blank). There are people who call themselves Christians are are pro-abortion and pro-perversion. These people will learn some day that their beliefs are an abomination to God. To your point, there are those who identify as being Jewish but are in fact JINO.
We live in a crazy world!!
"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ - Jesus speaking in Matthew 7:21-23
And while the ADL is a reprehensible group, there are currently 60 organizations in the #StopToxicTwitter coalition representing a range of leftist groups. Musk apparently decided it was easier to target the ADL.
And he didn’t just target the ADL, he began promoting a campaign by Keith Woods: an antisemitic Irish vlogger with a long ugly history of attacking Jews. Not the ADL, Jews.
This is not as simple an article as I first thought. While Greenfield does not like the ADL, he points out that the vlogger that Musk referenced is in fact, virulently anti-Jew.
Which always sets off Greenfield's "Danger" warnings.
He doesn't defend the ADL as much as question the value of this particular battle for Jews, like himself.
Ping out to the Daniel Greenfield Ping! List.
As always, please FReepmail me if you want on or off the esteemed Daniel Greenfield ping list.

The ADL are Jews, but they are not "The Jews".
So the headline is slander by implication.
Musk said that most of the advertisers he spoke to referred specifically to pressure by the ADL. He didn’t blame Jews, he blamed the ADL.
As a complete outsider to all of this, this is what I see: Greenfield says the ADL is bad, and then spends an entire article explaining why Musk should not sue them, tries to divert the subject to other organizations, and then smears Musk by claiming he associates with anti-Semites. If Greenfield really thinks the ADL is as bad as he says, why does he go after Musk so hard? Strange, isn’t it?
Thats the feeling im getting. He looks like he has some receipts.
> 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).
We have presidential candidates literally wear an Israeli flag on stage and people still clutch their pearls when it’s implied maybe Jewish groups have too much clout in U.S. politics.
“The ADL is a garbage leftist organization.”
How does blaming a leftist organization smear Jews?
Your argument is stupid on its face.
Musk said himself that pressure from the ADL was the #1 reason cited by advertisers for dropping Twitter/X. This is why he singled them out. It wasn’t because he “liked” a post from this guy Keith Woods.
Meanwhile, Jonathan Greenblatt has a HUGE conflict of interest. He served for 3 years as a political appointee of the Obama administration. This alone should have disqualified him from being the national director of the ADL.
The ADL is the Jewish Mafia and are nothing more than shake down artists. Donate to them or they’ll call you a Nazi
Matthew 21:12
Black Cube certainly has former Mossad in it and they do hype that for marketing reasons, but no, Black Cube is one of many private business intelligence firms such as GPW (J.S. Held) and K2.
All of them are dirty and work for people who are shady as heck, including governments and political parties.
I work in military contracting and all of them have tried to recruit me at various times, presumably for smuggling of some kind. (I can fly anything, anywhere, very well.) Not for me.
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.
So what?
To call blaming the ADL to "blaming Jews" seems like an attempt to paint Musk as someone who just generically blames Jewish people. If this was not the intent behind the headline, then the headline is at the least irresponsible.
Like saying when Trump criticized Hillary, he "hates women."
Musk has t cites anything. He’s just following a d retweeting a hashtag from a neo-Nazi
The ADL isn’t the head of the snake, Pierre Omidyar is. Read the article, before commenting
The ADK has protected Soros, because it is a garbage leftist organization
You are missing a word or two in that sentence but if you are saying what I think you are, yes he did cite what he was told by his advertisers.
He's just following a d retweeting a hashtag from a neo-Nazi
Once again I have to guess at what you are saying but I think you are upset about his liking a post by someone who you think is a neo-Nazi.
Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. I notice the term "neo-Nazi" gets thrown around with gay abandon anymore. The Ukrainian are neo-Nazis, the Russians are neo-Nazis, Trump supporters are neo-Nazis, Netanyahu supporters are neo-Nazis...
But let's say who ever's post Elon liked is the reincarnation of Reinhard Heydrich. Does that make the ADL's actions in trying to get Libs of TicTok banned accepable? I would say no. You obviously think differently.
