“Don’t say Hess to Nazi accusations!” Musk wrote Thursday, referring to German Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler’s deputy, Rudolf Hess.
“Some people will Goebbels anything down!” he joked, referencing Joseph Goebbels, the deeply antisemitic Nazi propaganda minister who organized the 1938 Kristallnacht assault on Jewish families.
Other lines invoked Hermann Göring, the Nazi military leader who wanted to rid Germany of its Jewish population, and Heinrich Himmler, the SS chief who was instrumental in planning the Holocaust.
