Elon Musk took to Twitter to defend cartoonist Scott Adams, whose once-popular comic strip "Dilbert" was dropped from hundreds of newspapers following his recent racist remarks.
In last week's episode of Adams' YouTube show, "Real Coffee with Scott Adams," Adams repeatedly claimed that Black people were members of a "hate group" or a "racist hate group" in response to a poll from the conservative firm Rasmussen Reports that revealed only 53% of Black American respondents agreed with the statement, "It's OK to be White." Adams added that he would no longer "help Black Americans" and advised white Americans "to get the hell away from Black people."
