I strongly encourage people to read the thread that begins below from @rheinze.myatproto.social, an academic historian who says my summary of the role of RTLM in the Rwandan Genocide is quite wrong, and not an appropriate comparison to what Musk is doing today.

No it wasn’t. This is simply not true and is a major misunderstanding of the dynamics of genocide.

Elon Musk is unambiguously calling for a violent race war. This is far from unprecedented. The Rwandan Genocide was stoked and enabled by Felicien Kabuga, the wealthy owner of the RTLM radio station that helped coordinate the genocide and used euphemisms like "go to work" to signal attacks.
