Worth a listen: Many people are pointing out how this expert’s mic was shut down just as he started to explain the real cause of violent riots. Elon Musk is accused of curating the extremist platform xTwitter like a modern Dearborn Independent.
That’s a former chief superintendent of the Met Police saying out loud that Elon Musk’s spread of extremist right-wing content poses a direct threat to national security and public safety… if you listen closely.
When Sky flipped to their next guest, apparently again it was said that Elon Musk has undermined safety by pushing toxic hate speech on xTwitter, intentionally stoking conflict.
‘A polarisation engine’: how social media has created a ‘perfect storm’ for UK’s far-right riots
Keep calm and carry on… calling out Musk for being a threat to society.
I’m hoping the UK terrorism teams are able to trace and expose the links between Russia and xTwitter, uncovering riots and social media hate campaigns as Putin’s typical game plan.
The PM has already hinted at the coordinated nature of Musk’s weird role.
“What we’ve seen in this country is organized, illegal thuggery which has no place on our streets or online.”
Organized and orchestrated by… Musk or Putin… or both?
This summary analysis published in The Guardian is perhaps what Putin knows best and is exploiting with his American “business” contacts.
Lord Walney, the government’s independent adviser on political violence and disruption, has suggested that the current legal and regulatory framework is insufficient when faced by this kind of “rolling rabble-rousing”. How to tackle this manufactured chaos is among the biggest challenges now facing Sir Keir Starmer’s government.
Rolling rabble rousing is a nice phrase to describe Elon Musk’s role. Manufactured chaos is another nice phrase. The British really do have a way with words.
But it looks like a cartoon by The Onion has said it best of anyone lately.
And that’s really just a new take on an actual 1930s cartoon.
Or as the associate editor of the Financial Times just put it:
