Summarizing ADL as "one of the most prominent Jewish advocacy and anti-hate organizations in the US" shows the Guardian bias. It's akin to describing North Korea as "a democratic republic". They wield "antisemitism" and shaming as a tool to incentivize promoting Israel state interests and delegitimize critics of Israel. Meanwhile enabling and excusing actual nazism ("awkward gesture").

Very spicy of Musk to escalate confrontation with them in public.

I wonder what the mechanisms of the recent progressive/liberal retreat have been. Like what incentives changed for all these companies to speak out for liberal causes to now the ADL defending a Nazi salute and following everything Musk says.
