  • The racist posts from Musk's DOGE staffer show a widening gap in the GOP between its base and its wealthy technocratic elite.

The article from Slate discusses a series of controversial posts made by Elon Musk on X (formerly Twitter), where he engaged with and amplified racist content targeting Indian Americans. Musk, who has a history of controversial online behavior, responded to a post by a user named "DogeDesigner" that contained derogatory remarks about Indian Americans, suggesting they were responsible for various negative attributes in the U.S. Musk's interaction with this content, including his own comments, has sparked significant backlash for promoting racist stereotypes.

This incident has raised concerns about the platform's moderation policies and Musk's influence in shaping public discourse on race and ethnicity.
