Comment on Musk says George Soros ‘hates humanity,’ compares him to Jewish supervillainparent

Apparently, that backstory was invented in 2008, 45 years after his debut (1963).

The survivor-of-Auschwitz part is from the 80s, they just didn't make him explicitly Jewish back then.

Yeah I mean it's pretty obvious that WaPo political operatives just dug this unknown detail up in an attempt to smear Musk as an anti-Semite, because that's easier than actually trying to argue with his claims via fact and reason.

Musk was literally told about Magneto [1] and he decided to double down on it on a reply. Dunno how much more explicit Musk needs to make it.

It's pretty clear from the movies that Magneto was a Holocaust survivor. I'm pretty confident that Musk knows this, and was clearly peeved that Soros had recently sold his T$LA holdings. The man's pettiness knows no bounds.
