The Guardian describes how and why Russians bought Twitter in order to platform domestic terrorism in America.
Ken McCallum, the head of MI5, the UK’s domestic intelligence service, publicly stated earlier this month that Russia was responsible for “arson, sabotage” and other “actions conducted with increasing recklessness” on European and British soil.
In a September announcement on SimpleX, a newly adopted encrypted chat service for some far-right extremists, the Base told its recruits to consume their content via its VK account, the Russian version of Facebook, or its Rutube channel.
And in a series of September and October VK posts where it describes the “process for joining the Base in [the] USA”, the group also curiously dropped a new email with a Mail.Ru address – the email provider of a well-known ally of the Russian president, Vladimir Putin.
The British have it figured out. And while many examples are about Americans moving to Russia, and opening Russian accounts, it’s clear the Russian acquisition of Twitter was a targeted plan to instigate violence and interfere with British, EU and American elections.
Elon Musk’s constant display of an affinity for Nazism is simply a case of the puppet serving his foreign master.
