Musk is picking fights with all the right people.
On Saturday, the CEO of Twitter, Elon Musk, joined conservatives in criticizing actress Alyssa Milano for giving up her Tesla for a Volkswagen.
"Volkswagen was literally started by the Nazis and Hitler," Hodgetwins tweeted Saturday in response to Milano's tweet, in which she said that Tesla was about "hate and white supremacy." The "laughing face" and "100" emojis were how Musk replied to Hodgetwins.
Volkswagen was literally founded by the Nazi’s and Hitler. 🤡

Milano’s entire tweet reads, “I gave back my Tesla. I bought the VW ev. I love it. I’m not sure how advertisers can buy space on Twitter. Publicly traded company’s products being pushed in alignment with hate and white supremacy doesn’t seem to be a winning business model.”
I gave back my Tesla.

I bought the VW ev.
I love it.
I’m not sure how advertisers can buy space on Twitter. Publicly traded company’s products being pushed in alignment with hate and white supremacy doesn’t seem to be a winning business model.
Milano responded “Must be a very slow news day” to Tommy moderna-vaX-Topher’s tweet Sunday that says, “Can somebody tell the idiots dunking on @Alyssa_Milano that Germany is our ally now? I feel like it’s been like that for a minute?”
Milano then doubled down and retweeted @BJacksonWrites tweet that says, “My first tweet in a week to say that VolksWagon became a global brand after WW2 when it’s New leader REJECTED Nazism. Tesla became a global brand and its CEO now wants to ENABLE Nazism. These are not the same.”
