The claim that Elon Musk blocked Disney’s Pride content on X (formerly Twitter) and stated “WOKE isn’t for KIDS” appears to be a misunderstanding or misrepresentation of events.
Here’s the context:
1.Disney and other companies paused advertising on X after Musk responded to a controversial post accused of promoting antisemitic views. This led to significant advertiser withdrawals but had nothing to do with Pride-related content .
2.Claims suggesting Musk specifically banned Disney or Pride content from X stem from satirical articles, which are fictional and meant for entertainment rather than reporting actual events .
Musk replied, “You have said the actual truth,” which many interpreted as endorsing the antisemitic sentiment. This led to significant criticism from organizations, individuals, and companies, resulting in major advertisers like Disney, Apple, and IBM withdrawing from the platform .
Following the controversy, Musk issued an apology but also expressed frustration with advertisers pulling out, accusing them of trying to “blackmail” him during a public interview . If you’d like more details, feel free to ask!
