The Anti-Defamamation League (ADL) eliminated all its “glossary of extremism and hate” on Tuesday after receiving violent reactions, including Elon Musk and Republican legislators, to enumerate Turning Point USA (TPUSA) as an extremist group.
The outrage occurs almost three weeks after the co -founder of Tpusa, Charlie Kirk, was killed at the University of Utah Valley while talking with a crowd on the campus.
The TPUSA background page on the ADL website is under the “Center of Extremism” label and describes that the conservative group has links with “a variety of right-wing extremists and has generated the support of anti-musulm fans, Alt-Lite activists and some corners of the alternative white supremacist.”

The ADL also listed dozens of controversial statements linked to the members of TPUSA or speakers of the event since 2015, and wrote that Kirk used the movement to promote “Christian nationalism.”
In response to the list, the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, wrote on X on Sunday that “ADL hates Christians”, which makes it a “hate group.”
He continued in a separate publication, “the use of such false and defamatory labels on people and organizations encourages murder.”

By announcing the decision to withdraw his “glossary of extremism and hate”, effectively immediately, the ADL said they are always “looking for how we can and should do things better.”
The glossary had more than 1,000 tickets and had accumulated for several years at the time it was eliminated. The ADL said several tickets were “outdated” but they didn't share what they were.
“This will allow ADL to explore new creative strategies and approaches to deliver our data and present our research more effectively. It will keep us focused on ensuring that we do better what we do: fight against anti -Semitism and the hatred of the most shocking forms possible,” the group wrote in X, in part.

The glossary included groups such as the Nation of Islam, the proud boys, the oath and others. Tpusa and the “America First” movement also included while leaving controversial groups such as Antifa and Black Lives Matter.

“Being included in this database does not mean that individuals or groups are participating in illegal or violent behavior, but that in ADL opinions the opinions as exemplified by the statements made in support of these opinions can be considered extreme,” says the Glossary Home page.
Fox News Digital contacted the ADL to comment, but did not receive a response for publication time.
