The official account for Ford Motor Company on X was apparently compromised in a hacking incident behind a viral post calling Israel a “terrorist state.”

In a statement posted Monday evening, Ford said its X account was “briefly compromised” and several unauthorized posts were shared.

      Henry didn’t care about Arab states so much as wanted to import them to be his cheap labor. He hated Jews but I’m sure he would’ve preferred gazans to be refugees so they’d work in his factories for nothing.

      And while Henry Ford is gone, the USA’s richest and most powerful industrialists are still Nazis.

        The wealthy and powerful are always attracted to fascism because fascist leaders always want their wealth and power behind the movement.

        It’s like how cults go after Hollywood celebrities or senile old rich people.

          Deep down they know that the “capitalist status quo” is not sustainable, working class will eventually figure our that we are being seriously fucked over.

          Owner class will not provide concessions to the working class on principle out of spite.

          So their only option is to go fascist, front run the plebs!

          PS. FDR saved US last time, I doubt we will get another one.

      Car manufacturers have some kind of hard on for Nazism. In the past we had Ford. Now we have Elon…

      There might be a relation to workers creating unions and their CEO’s love for Fascism.

        Pretty much every major global leader in industry has direct ties to Nazis.

        From 3m and basf to vw to Bayer to your friendly frozen pizza brand Dr oetker.

        All Nazis.

        All the way down.

        Inspections have been ordered at every German army barracks, after Nazi-era memorabilia was found at two of them. The move follows a growing scandal over far-right extremism within the army, with an officer accused of plotting an attack disguised as a Syrian refugee.

        Germans are Nazis because de-Nazification never really happened and high ranking members of the fascist government continued to occupy key rolls in government and industry long after the military’s collapse in 1945. Nazis were used as a bullwark against Soviet Communists in the 50s and 60s. Then they became pivotal as expendable Cold War mercenary units during the 70s and 80s, particularly in Latin America and Southern and Western Africa. Finally, the xenophobic rhetoric of the AfD has been instrumental in radicalizing Germans against Southern Europeans during the '00s European economic downturn and against war refugees following the invasion of Iraq and the bombings across North Africa, Syria/Lebanon, the border wars with Turkyie, and now the Russia/Ukraine conflict.

        Nazism isn’t an inherited trait, it is a tool of social control. German private media and business continue to see Nazism as a means of pitting the German working class against itself, its neighbors, and geopolitical its rivals. So Nazism continues to thrive within the German state, long after the tanks that rampaged across Europe in the 30s and 40s had ground to a halt.

            So you’re saying all Germans are Nazis?

            That’s not what that commenter said. That’s what you want for them to have said, so you can have a melt down over it.

        This is America…

        A corporation is a person, today’s Ford isn’t the descendant of 1938, it’s the same entity.

        So if you’re trying to simplify my thoughts process, it would be:

        Once a nazi, always a nazi

        There’s some shit you can’t make up for later in life. Not saying you can’t go on to do good things and help people, it’s just rare and will never make up for every past action.

        Someone that is truly reformed, won’t let that stop that from trying. Because they truly understand and are sorry. They’re not trying to get into the “good place” they’re doing as much good as they can knowing that no amount will make up for their past.

        Which is why it’s so rare.

        No most Germans are not Nazis due to heritatge but most germans support their nazi nepo baby regime tho…

        And when this fact is brought up to their attention, they get indignant. So you tell me what’s up with that?

        Also, American elites being slavers’ nepo baby to this day is clearly reflected in US socio economic policy to this day.

        These people never change yet, they are permitted to rule us.

          What does nepotism have to do with anything? Also, pretty much all nazi’s fled germany after the war, so they wouldn’t have been in charge of rebuilding the German government…

            pretty much all nazi’s fled germany after the war

            That’s factually incorrect statement, most nazi’s underwent “re-education” and were “reintegrated” into german society.

            However, we are not talking about pedestrian nazi’s here. We are talking about elite families who made their capital in part or entirely in collaboration with the Third Reich, including use of slave labour.

            These people then returned to West Germany with their blood stained capital and reestablishment them selves as the new owner class.

            You don’t have to take my word for it. This is common knowledge among people who studied history beyond what state sanctioned propaganda shills in schools.

      That’s some direct action… I hope he or she does not get exposed since anti Israeli sentiment under your own name will be punished by the system.
