Tech billionaire Elon Musk has visited the site of the Auschwitz extermination camp. The visit comes after heavy criticism of how X, previously Twitter, manages antisemitic content and only weeks after Mr Musk apologised for sponsoring an antisemitic conspiracy theory. Prominent Jewish leaders urged for Mr Musk to witness for himself one of the most symbolic places of the Holocaust. Later he will discuss online racism at a meeting held by the European Jewish Association (EJA). Nazi Germany murdered at least 1.1 million people in the Auschwitz death camp in occupied Poland during World War Two. Almost one million were Jews. The exhibit notes more than 200,000 were youngsters and young people. Mr Musk lay a wreath and participated in a memorial ritual, including lighting a candle, during a private visit to the site. Photos showed him there with his son on his shoulders and standing next to Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev. Advertisers leave As a result of the fall-out following Mr Musk's enthusiastic agreement with an antisemitic tweet, Apple, Disney and IBM suspended ads on X. In reaction, the entrepreneur has accused advertisers of seeking to "blackmail" him with money, and used obscenity loaded words to emphasize his distaste for their activities. The Tesla chairman, who took over the platform in October 2022, received charges of antisemitism in November after he replied, "You have said the actual truth" to a post on X that made the incorrect assertion that Jewish communities incite hatred against white people. The White House promptly blasted his statement, which garnered fury online. Mr Musk said the endorsement was a mistake, calling it as "one of the most foolish" things he has done on the platform. Later in November Mr Musk joined Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on a tour of the Kfar Aza kibbutz targeted by Hamas as part of the 7 October attacks in which 1,300 people were killed and approximately 240 hauled back to Gaza as prisoners. Today, key political officials from European countries and Mr Musk will meet in Krakow, Poland "to discuss and find solutions to the astronomical rises in antisemitism affecting Europe," the EJA said. "This troubling trend" had been rising since the war in Gaza, it claimed. During a live talk broadcast on X in September, EJA leader Rabbi Menachem Margolin encouraged Mr Musk to visit Auschwitz. Rabbi Margolin said it would be "a very strong statement" and "could contribute a lot to Holocaust awareness and the struggle to combat antisemitism." At least 1.1 million people were killed at Auschwitz They were gassed, starved, worked to death and killed in medical experiments. The Memorial and Museum Auschwitz-Birkenau has previously been critical of X. In August, the museum slammed the platform after Facebook had first neglected to remove a post denying the Holocaust, arguing it did not contravene its guidelines. The nasty message was a comment to one from the museum about a three-year-old Jewish girl slain in the camp's death chambers. The post dubbed her death a "fairy tale" and utilized antisemitic tropes. According to a post on X by the museum, it had reported the abusive comment but received a response indicating that after evaluating the "available information" the platform had deemed no rules had been broken. That first answer to the museum's complaint, according to X, was down to a mistake during the first inspection - it was escalated and removed in a second review. X's policies say that Holocaust denial is prohibited. Shortly after publication of an article about the event, a museum spokeswoman told the BBC that moderation was crucial in combatting antisemitism but there seemed to be "a problem on X in the quality of moderating and responding to reports". But the Tesla leader has vehemently defended his record in combatting internet hatred. In his debate with Rabbi Margolin, Mr Musk claimed it was preposterous that he was accused of antisemitism "when all the evidence points the other direction and my entire life story is in fact pro-semitic." He previously threatened to pursue a complaint against the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish advocacy group, over its assertions that problematic and racist speech had surged on the site since his takeover. X is also currently suing non-profit Media Matters after it accused the site of enabling antisemitic messages close to advertisements. X's lawsuit alleges it utilized "manipulated" data in an attempt to "destroy" the platform.
