Elon Musk is a fan of the Armie Hammer-starrer Citizen Vigilante.
After Citizen Vigilante was banned in Germany, according to The Telegraph, because regulators refused to grant the film an age rating over concerns that its violent content could incite violence against immigrants, Musk posted the full movie to his X account, which has more than 240 million followers, making it available to watch for 48 hours. Uwe Boll, the German filmmaker who wrote and directed Citizen Vigilante, also shared the film. While it's no longer available on either account, the movie has since been reposted by X users.
Citizen Vigilante stars Hammer as Sanders, a vigilante who takes justice into his own hands. According to Apple TV, the official synopsis reads: "Living in Croatia, a wealthy American businessman transforms into a feared vigilante who targets violent criminals, rapists and corrupt judges. As his brutal campaign gains traction online and across the media, he soon becomes a wanted criminal and an unlikely public hero."
On Saturday, Boll announced on X that a sequel, Citizen Vigilante 2, is slated for release in 2027. It's unclear whether Hammer will return. THR reached out to Boll for comment but did not hear back by the time of publication.

So, immigrant Musk is anti-immigrant. Or does he just hate people of color?

okay now that Musk is personally boosting the anti-immigrant Nazi movie with violently abusive Armie Hammer can maybe one outlet here look into covering the mural Musk funded on a Phoenix womanâs shelter that was put there to do a racism anyway???

I had to check that this was real and it is.

That's me. I probably fit Musk's demented, hateful, racial definition of a traitor who should be hanged.
