Elon Musk's Feud with George Soros: Comparisons to Supervillains and Stock Dumping

Elon Musk tweeted that George Soros, a Jewish-born investor and philanthropist, "hates humanity" and compared him to a Jewish supervillain. Musk did not give a reason for singling out Soros, but made his comments three days after Soros's investment fund reported that it had sold all its stock in Tesla. Soros is often subject to virulent antisemitic conspiracy theories and is the focus of international hostility for his wealth, religious background, investments, and Open Society Foundations. Musk's tweets were condemned by the Anti-Defamation League, which has catalogued similar conspiracy theories that hold Soros wants to control the world.
