Twitter CEO Elon Musk joined conservative personalities blasting actress Alyssa Milano Saturday for trading in her Tesla for a Volkswagen.

“Volkswagen was literally founded by the Nazi’s and Hitler,” Hodgetwins tweeted Saturday in response to Milano’s tweet in which she attributed “hate and white supremacy” to Tesla. Musk responded to Hodgetwins with the “laughing face” and “100” emojis. (RELATED: Elon Musk Finally Takes Over Twitter, Fires Top Executives)

Milano’s entire tweet reads, “I gave back my Tesla. I bought the VW ev. I love it. I’m not sure how advertisers can buy space on Twitter. Publicly traded company’s products being pushed in alignment with hate and white supremacy doesn’t seem to be a winning business model.”

Milano responded “Must be a very slow news day” to Tommy moderna-vaX-Topher’s tweet Sunday that says, “Can somebody tell the idiots dunking on @Alyssa_Milano that Germany is our ally now? I feel like it’s been like that for a minute?”

Milano then doubled down and retweeted @BJacksonWrites tweet that says, “My first tweet in a week to say that VolksWagon became a global brand after WW2 when it’s New leader REJECTED Nazism. Tesla became a global brand and its CEO now wants to ENABLE Nazism. These are not the same.”
