    Surely it can’t be worse than Truth Social or Rumble… I’m assuming they mean mainstream platforms

    When did we collectively decide techbro billionaires should be the arbiter of what is and isn’t disinformation?

    This is completely unsurprising. Under the new “free speech” regime, X has been completely deluged with antisemitic, pro-Russia, and anti-democracy propaganda. It’s no wonder that advertisers don’t want to be associated with that type of content.

    EU should block X. See how Lonnie responds to that.

    I read this as “X is the platform that shares all the information that doesn’t follow our authoritarian agendas”.

    Good. That means X is serving its purpose: informing people of all available opinions in a crazy, leftist, authoritarian world that’s indicting speech.

    No one owns a monopoly on the truth.
