The only alternatives mentioned were Threads and Bluesky.
There was/is a wave of far-right riots happening in the UK, which involved a lot lotting and attacks on Muslims. This was triggered by a stabbing in Southport and a lie that spread on social media claiming that the perpetrator was a Muslim migrant that came to the UK on a ‘small boat’ crossing the channel (he was actually born and grew up in Cardiff). Musk may be liable because during the riots he made several posts undermining the government’s attempts to quell the unrest and his general failure to tackle disinformation spreading on Twitter, such as the Muslim migrant lie.
Fair point. I thought you were implying the opposite.
I read it as implying Labour is anti-free speech for clamping down on racist hate speech and mob mentality.
Arresting people for things they say even when they aren’t threats is anti-free speech and the UK and many European countries do not allow free speech. You can be arrested for even saying Israelis genociding Palestinians are Nazis.
