Don't threaten us with a good time, Daily Express.
Image featuring a graphic from the Bradford District Green Party. The background is green with the Daily Express logo in the upper left and a photo of Zack Polanski speaking into a microphone on the right, holding a cartoon-style bundle of cash with a pound sign. Below, a mocked-up newspaper headline reads: “Zack Polanski wants to redistribute our money and turn Britain into a Left-wing haven.” At the bottom, the Green Party logo and web address Join.greenparty.org.uk are displayed.

I talked to 10 current and former Meta employees about the company's surrender to the right on speech issues. All were upset. One person called the changes "a precursor to genocide" www.platformer.news/meta-fact-ch...
But in its panicked retreat from the system it spent years building, Meta may now be putting billions of users at risk. Just because Meta deleted that line about hateful speech causing offline violence doesn't mean it isn't true. And now the company has all but declared open season on immigrants, transgender people and whatever other targets that Trump and his allies find useful in their fascist project. "I can't tell you how much harm comes from non-illegal but harmful content," a longtime former trust and safety employee at the company told me. The classifiers that the company is now switching off meaningfully reduced the spread of hate movements on Meta's platforms, they said. "This is not the climate change debate, or pro-life vs. pro-choice. This is degrading, horrible content that leads to violence and that has the intent to harm other people."

This is a fantastic interview and also one of the most direct and honest spotlights I've ever seen a trans person get in a major media organization. Which is a bummer, itself, but doesn't take away by how meaningful this is. Attacking Musk's hatred in such a direct, clear way is POTENT.

Elon Musk's daughter Vivian Wilson was interviewed by my colleague David Ingram at NBC News after Musk deadnamed her & made claims about her childhood: "If you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide..."

In an exclusive interview, Vivian Jenna Wilson said her father’s recent statements including that she is “not a girl” inspired her to speak out: “I’m not just gonna let that slide.”
