In recent days, the Anti-Defamation League has been the center of attention on social media, fueled by the viral hashtag #BanTheADL.
On Aug. 30, just one day prior to the explosion of #BanTheADL, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt posted the following on X:
I had a very frank + productive conversation with @LindayaX yesterday about @X, what works and what doesn't, and where it needs to go to address hate effectively on the platform. I appreciated her reaching out and I'm hopeful the service will improve. @ADL will be vigilant and… Some onlookers were outraged about ADL's push for content moderation on X. It is true the ADL has morphed into another left-wing activist group that cherry-picks convenient forms of bigotry to further a political agenda. But regardless of your opinion of the ADL and its political activism, it’s become depressingly clear that two obvious points are being completely ignored.While it started with honest and worthwhile aims, it is true that the ADL is a partisan, left-wing entity.
His response to the fact that the “consensus among historians today is that Frank was innocent”? That Jewish control of … history is to blame!The ADL is indeed a terrible organization, but when white supremacist, antisemitic conspiracy theorists are its loudest critics, you have to be somewhere between naive and moronic not to consider their primary motive.Let’s not forget how this all began. People are ignoring a few key words from Greenblatt's post: “I appreciated her reaching out.
