Elon takes on interracial crime, infuriates the left

Elon Musk has a history of upsetting the left on Twitter, and he’s not stopping any time soon.

In fact, it seems he’s actually upped the ante with several recent tweets in response to current crime patterns and more specifically what these patterns reflect: race.

Lauren Chen reports that “if you’ve been on social media over the past few days, you’ll have seen that Elon Musk appears to have taken a journey down the rabbit hole that is interracial crime.”

While Musk has responded to several tweets on interracial crime, the one that really got him in trouble with the left was an image that depicts the stats related to interracial crime.

The image showed a man with a camera focusing on the percentage of white-on-black crime in a graph — meant to reflect media outlets and their coverage — while ignoring all other forms of crime.

Elon simply responded “Odd, why would the media misrepresent the real situation to such an extreme degree?”

The issue of interracial crime has dominated headlines recently after Jordan Neely, a homeless black man, was subdued during an erratic outburst, allegedly put in a choke hold by a bystander, and died.

Chen says sarcastically, “It seems like the only crime stories we ever hear of are of white people attacking poor defenseless black people who weren’t doing anything, like Jordan Neely.”

According to the left, Chen says, Neely “was just an innocent Michael Jackson impersonator on the subway” who was “simply killed for being black.”

“No other reason,” she continues, “like being an aggressive, violent, homeless man.”

Chen says the media and leftists in general “are committed to demonizing white people.”

“Congrats to Elon for actually talking about this issue and not backing down where he’s right just because leftist bullies are threatening him,” Chen adds.
