Jack White ripped into Musk on Monday for allowing Donald Trump to return to his account on the social media platform.
I think you're absolutely disgusting. The White Stripes founder wrote to Musk saying that he was an asshole.
White accused Musk of trying to help a fascist have a platform so you can eventually get your tax breaks, but wouldn't allow the KKK to hold a rally.
He said that the platform they control and have a say in is not town square. If I owned a gas station, I wouldn't sell the KKK gasoline to burn crosses and then wash my hands because I helped facilitate hatred.
Jack White slammed Musk for allowing Trump to return to his account on the social networking site.
White warned that "free speech isn't an umbrella that protects you from that"
The musician had previously supported Musk and his company.
White gave Musk a lot of praise.
Theentrepreneur had gone too far using his power to promote liars who are taking the country and the world backwards and endangering the democracy that made you rich and successful in the first place.

The U.S. Capitol riot was caused by Trump. He wants to focus on his own Truth Social venture, so he won't use social media again.
