It's a PR blunder. "Our content moderation is so broken the CEO had directly intervene to remove a post praising the Holocaust" isn't a great message.

PR from the former CEO? (X CEO) /j

A PR move for the CEO, not for twitter IMO.

There's PR for Musk and his businesses every single day. Idiots continue to upvote it even when it's non-news like this.
