Elmo, hacked and X account
Digest more
Since Elon Musk acquired X, formerly known as Twitter, he has received criticism over content moderation policies that allow hate speech. After a recent coding change for X’s artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok reportedly used antisemitic language in its replies. It has since received an update.
“Kill all Jews,” the Elmo account tweeted as part of a spree focused on “the Epstein files,” the documents purportedly kept by the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein that have reemerged as a major political issue six months into the second Trump administration.
The profane slew of posts shared Sunday evening featured the Sesame Street star’s account going on a bizarre series of rants.
Elmo's account on X was hacked over the weekend and called for the release of the releae of the Epstein Files and violence against Jews.
