​Elon Musk has been accused of personally fuelling antisemitism by an expert witness at the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion.

​Speaking at the RC, the Online Hate Prevention Institute’s Andre Oboler said: “Elon Musk himself has amplified certain content that really promotes antisemitism and pushes hate”.

​“After Trump was elected, we saw the Nazi salute that he did at the event,” he said.

​“Read it as you will, but there’s certainly a problem there that is being amplified and coming from someone with a huge degree of influence over the platform.”
