YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Elon Musk took a private tour of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in southern Poland as he defended his social platform, X, against accusations of spreading antisemitism.

“It was incredibly moving, and deeply sad and tragic that humans could do this to humans,” the billionaire Tesla Inc. chief and X owner said on Monday of the site — where an estimated 1.1 million people, mostly Jews, were killed by the Nazis during World War II.

Musk was seen carrying his son on his shoulders in a photo of the tour, as he stood alongside Rabbi Menachem Margolin, the chairman of the European Jewish Association, Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, and Ben Shapiro, a controversial conservative media pundit.
