'Isn't there a better example?': Internet slams Elon Musk after he tweets meme featuring Nazi soldier
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Elon Musk, who became the owner of Twitter on October 27, 2022, is under fire for sharing a meme featuring a Nazi soldier as he compared modern communication methods to old ones on Monday, November 7. However, this didn’t go down well with people who asked, “Isn't there a better example, Elon? Right now, in the ongoing debate around developments here on Twitter?”
The black and white photo shared by the Tesla and SpaceX billionaire showed a soldier carrying a cage of pigeons on his back with the caption, "3 unread messages.” Musk wrote, “How times have changed.” In a subsequent tweet in the same thread, he added, “Back when birds were real,” followed by, “But if Twitter is bird, that’s means… [ with a head-exploding emoji]." But soon, netizens pointed out that the photo shows a WWII-era German soldier, known as the Wehrmacht, during the invasion of France in May 1940, according to a report by the Independent.
