IBM, a major advertiser on X, has pulled its spending from the social media platform, whose employees are grappling with what to tell its other advertisers, according to internal messages.

To be clear: Musk endorsed a tweet which used a false antisemitic conspiracy theory to tell people why "Hitler was right"

Yeah, it is also just a philosophy word. But antisemites use it to refer to "dialectical materialism", which is a real term for Marxist philosophy, but by which they mean "cultural Marxism", a thing they made up by which they in turn mean "the Jews are going to impose communism on us through psyops that convince us it is good, so we have to exterminate them."

Basically, like much of their coded language, it is a reference to a conspiracy theory.
