Elon Musk Shows Affinity for Gad Saad with Heart Emoji

Elon Musk’s simple reply of a red heart emoji to a post by Gad Saad, a professor known for his outspoken criticism of identity politics, signals a continued affinity for voices that challenge mainstream academic and social narratives. While the gesture may seem minor, it comes amid Musk’s increasing public engagement with what he has termed the “woke mind virus” and his acquisition of Twitter, now X, where such content is often amplified.
