The Ford Motor Co. is under fire after a series of hateful, antisemitic posts appeared on the company X account on Monday. But in response to the uproar, Ford claimed its X account had been hacked.
“Our X account was briefly compromised and the previous three posts were not authorized or posted by Ford,” the statement reads, according to Fox Business Network.
Some of the messages that were deleted included “Israel is a terrorist state,” and “Free Palestine.”
The posts were up for nearly an hour and a half before being taken down.
It is well known that Henry Ford was a huge admirer of Adolf Hitler before WWII and made many statements supporting the German mad man. Sadly, Ford was just as much of a Jew hater as Hitler.
But, the explanation of all this social media controversy today is probably much easier to explain.
It is highly doubtful that Ford was “hacked.” One likely explanation is that some moron social media employee — likely a 20-something idiot brainwashed by college — forgot to switch back to her personal account before posting the horrid posts. The other is that someone inside wanted to sabotage the account.
Whatever happened, it is highly likely it was someone inside Ford that did it.
