JAKARTA. Elon Musk accused the Hands Off demonstrations that spread widely in several states on Saturday (5/4) yesterday, as a fabricated effort sponsored by foreign funds including George Soros.

Elon Musk made the accusation in March 2025, then became more vocal about the accusation again in recent days, following a number of controversial policies of US President Donald Trump.

‘The problem is who is behind the demonstrations,’ Elon Musk said on his personal X account.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology created by Elon Musk for the X platform, Grok, analysed the photo collage upload of the Hands Off demonstration, differently from the allegations.

The results of Grok's analysis said the demonstration was a form of protest by US citizens against Donald Trump and Elon Musk to cut the budget of public services, such as social security, health, and tax incentives for the rich.

In addition, Grok said demonstrators in Boston, New York, and St. Francis held rallies to oppose the budget cut plan, which was initiated by a Republican study committee. (KR/LM)
