What Elon Musk is doing to women protesting his humiliation of them = what TERFs do to trans people protesting their humiliation of them = what the pro-Genocide media does to those protesting against Israel's actions in Gaza.
'You Hate Free Speech' is the go-to Far Right smear every time a targeted group pushes back.

Would be great if headlines like this helped people understand that ugly tactic.

This has all been a campaign of desensitisation then implementation.

Incrementally lowering tolerance, then unleashing horrors.

The result? Instead of condemnation of child abuse, women sexually violated en masse and murder by the secret police, we have “debate”

We are the social experiment.

These are great suggestions, but they are like writing a list of things we could do to Make Trump Lawful Again. They aren't going to happen because the whole point of the platform is the propaganda, the racism, the deepfakes. It's not a good faith organisation misfiring or short of resources.
Key to Msking Twitter Lawful Again is
1) enforcement action to make site bring in complaints system which removes unlawful content
2).real-time scrutiny with a transparent performance scoreboard
3) flexible escalating sanctions when fails, esp threshold for sin bin/suspension of service

Which strengthens the argument for anyone decent to just leave. En masse. No more excuses. If X collapses rather than being shut down, the arseholes lose their audience, their targets and their income stream without being able to have some epic tantrum about free speech.

The threat to shut X in the UK is a threat to the whole far right ecosystem.

They're going to throw everything at stopping it because they know it would cause them almost irreparable damage.

That's not the case for more moderate voices on left and right who have choices..

The islands of Little Diomede (U.S.) and Big Diomede (Russia), are just 2.4 miles apart and when the sea freezes you can walk between them

Russia is already America's neighbour
Trump says he doesn’t want Russia as a neighbour. Could someone remind him about the Bering Strait?

If you don’t think misogyny is a huge part of MAGA and Trump ever since Bannon activated the ‘monster energy’ of Gamergate against Hillary Clinton, think again.

As in Putin’s Russia, the desire to dominate, subjugate and kill women is the key psychopathology of Trumpism

On Grok...if there was ever a fight the government should pick, it's this one. Shutting down X in the UK. Because otherwise you're on the side of child abuse. And who can argue with that, ffs?

I’m so relieved our government messaging to X, the far-right peri-apocalyptic CSAM and violent pornography generating social media platform, is “get a grip.”

I’m sure the Ketamine-Addled Billionaire is quaking in his boots.

They need to get off the place.

Now.

"The Dictator's Dilemma" in action. The more cowards and flatterers they pick as advisors, the more their underlings distort reality to please their bosses. And the longer that goes on, the more they detatch from true national sentiment.

I think the death of Renee Good could swallow them whole. 1/2
JD Vance supports murdering American citizens. He's made that perfectly clear today. If he's willing to defend the murder of Renee Good, he would defend your murder, too.
JD Vance accuses the slain Renee Good of perpetrating "an attack on federal law enforcement, an attack on law and order, and attack on the American people"

"That woman was there to interfere with a legitimate law enforcement operation," he adds, repeatedly referring to her as "that woman"

Very true from a social justice lens too. When people believe that change is possible, that hope can galvanise them to take action.

"Everything seems awful but we can change it together" is what fuelled so many movements. And the plutocrats are banking on us forgetting that...
I know "nothing ever changes" is part psychological defence and part easiest hedge bet, because it is so often true, but people should think before sharing their "everything will always be awful" take. First, it adds to collective depression, but also it becomes a personally disempowering mantra.
