X to be investigated for allegedly breaking EU laws on hate speech and fake news
You mean to tell me Elon's little neo-Nazi shithole might not be properly moderating content to stay on the right side of hate speech laws? ...Yeah that's not surprising.
What's surprising is that the US does nothing about it
What I think is surprising is how many still use the fucking platform. It's completely neutered. Companies shouldn't be posting news to it because unless you have an account you probably can't fucking view it.
How is this surprising to you?
Half of the US votes for christian nationalist theological fascists that have already successfully banned everything to do with lgtbq people existing in many parts of the country, and about 1/3 of the US population believes in all or significant parts of the insanely hateful and delusional QAnon conspiracy universe.
You must not be American, or follow American domestic politics closely?
The Republicans control Congress which means the Democrats cannot pass any legislation, and are in fact bogged down fighting off insane nonsense to basically either somehow give more money to the already wealthy, or fighting off insane shit to take away even more basic rights for minorities.
Its basically illegal to get an abortion now in half the country.
And Trump has now multiple times just said he will be a dictator if he wins in 2024, and is currently leading in the polls.
Like, if you are European, can I fake marry your daughter or something to get the hell out of this collapsing basket case of a society?
There’s nothing to be done about it. Legally there’s no such thing as “hate speech” in the US, and there won’t be unless we get around to changing the first amendment.
Yeah I’m shocked.
Fortunately, the US has free speech protections. It's not up to some bureaucrats to decide what opinions are illegal.
Dont worry, even if Elon tanked the whole company by publicly telling its main customers, advertisers, to all go fuck themselves, its gonna be the new paypal with 100 trillion dollars in transactions!
Yes thats right, the company that can barely ever turn a profit, that just corporate public image suicided, and also fired nearly all its staff and now has an insanely toxic work environment that everyone competent is avoiding like the plague...
Fuck i cant even keep up the gimmick.
Elon and everything connected to him is so fucking fucked.
He's on the right side of the hate speech laws. The alt-right side.
