When Elmo went full Nazi and Zia got confused!

My grandkids are big Elmo fans along with millions all over the world. The beloved Sesame Street character has a global audience and in this digital age, Elmo even has his social media space on X. It therefore came as quite a shock when Elmo started tweeting the most vile anti-Semitic content imaginable. Here are just a few examples of what Elmo was sharing with the world.

Now then, we can all agree that these are vile coming from ANY source but from a Sesame Street character???

The people behind Elmo claimed the account had been hacked and the posts were all deleted. But is that true?

You see Elmo is a character in Sesame Street and Sesame Street was made for PBS. As part of Trump’s “Big beautiful bill”, there were massive funding cuts to PBS. So could it be that this posts by “Elmo” are the actual thoughts of a Sesame Street employee? I think this is at least plausible and so perhaps this gives a REAL insight into the mindset of these woke leftists?

Now Elmo wasn’t the ONLY person to get into trouble over social media this week! Let’s discuss the mysterious case of former Reform Chairman and Farage confidente Zia Yusuf! Watch this!

Now then, when this blew up Zia was quick off the mark to provide his explanation.

This is quite revealing insofar as he confirms that he has “a team” of people posting to his X account. He also claims to be a victim of racism. So are we to believe that others are posting his “thoughts’ and if so, what does that say about him. Further, in order to like a post you have to be interested in the account that posted it. So, who in his “team” likes anti Semitic accounts?

Robert Jenrick, the subject of this vile attack, had this to say by way of response to Zia.

Who to believe? I will leave that for you to decide but it’s not a good look either way!

Whilst social media has advantages, it also has major pitfalls and both Elmo and Zia illustrate this in their own curious ways!
