One of this week's biggest online fights was between the Anti-Defamation League and Twitter (is anyone calling it "X"?)—or, more specifically, Twitter's CEO, Elon Musk, the richest man in the world. If you believe the ADL, since Musk took over, antisemitism has skyrocketed on the platform, as banned accounts got reinstated and free speech rules became relaxed. If you believe Musk, Twitter ad revenue has dropped 60 percent because of the ADL lobbying companies to boycott the controversial platform. In a recent tweet, Musk threatened to sue the ADL for defamation. Whether he will, or even can, is totally unclear; what's more obvious is how Twitter has changed since Musk took over last fall.
To dissect the issue, Avi and Phoebe and joined by guest host Jon Kay, a writer, active tweeter and editor at Quillette.
Afterwards, Kay sticks around to discuss how Jews are treated in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Plus: Is the Blue Jays' rookie Spencer Horwitz hot? And you've still got time to submit to the Great Canadian Seder: email your entry to bonjour@thecjn.ca.
