Elon Musk, tasked earlier this year with firing thousands of federal workers across the United States, shared a post that blamed “public sector employees” for mass killings committed under Adolf Hitler and other dictators.

The post falsely claimed that Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler and Mao Zedong were not responsible for the murders of millions of people, but rather public sector workers were.

Musk and Tesla have faced heightened criticism since the billionaire made a gesture likened to a Nazi salute during an inaugural event in January.
