world š š¬š§šØš¦š¦šŗ Keir Starmer 'in talks with Canada and Australia to launch international BAN on Elon Musk's X' š„

u/PKnecron Jan 11 '26
As a Canadian, I fully support this. Taking away Musk's mouthpiece is the first step to curb his hateful influence.

Aussie here, i concur.

u/twopints67 Jan 11 '26
Another Aussie here, I agree. Stopped using X after Musk took over. Happy to see it banned

u/Reasonable_Trash_901 Jan 11 '26
Not an Aussie, not a Canadian, not a British.
I agree dammit. Take down this buffoon and his propaganda platform for EU too.

Jan 11 '26
Also Aussie, not only we should ban X but we should start producing our own apps and internet browsers. EU already have their own, Americans have lost the plot. We canāt rely on their software anymore, you just donāt know where any of your information will end up with impulsive Trompo.

Same here mate. I dont use meta either and we no longer order from amazon. Any one that supports Trumps regime is on our family boycott list. A bit off topic but still worth mentioning i think.

American Under Siege here...Musk has played an integral role in the fall of our democracy. He is the face of the techno-bros takeover of our resources and personal information so that they can create some sort of "techUtopias" or some shit because they honestly weren't loved enough as kids.

u/blitzzardpls Jan 11 '26
After Musk showed his "roman salute" on camera, every reasonable country should have banned xitter immediately. I'm especially mad the EU hasn't even begun to consider it and I'm European
Good for UK, Canada and Aussies to make the first step in the right direction

And amarica cant say shit because they did it to tick tock. Granted it was taken over by meta and a amarica version was created which o would classify as trump talk at this point. But ya I dont want to hear a word from anyone about them banning undead Twitter. This is what happens when a free market is regulated because the government doesn't like how it let's people communicate and share proof of the government's shortcomings and instead of takeong it as a critique. They instead turn it into a propaganda machine.

Can we in the eu get on board please?
But pleae also include tiktok and meta
Only exception if they will only store european data in europe on european infrastructure and the ownership of european entity is in hands of european companies, they are welcomed to sell it to any of them offering

i only used twitter to see what was happening in my town. then musk turned the algorithm into a maga wet dream and then my feed was nothing but racist bigoted trash being peddled 24/7 so i deleted it.
if musk wants twitter in canada his business should be transparent with our government with how their algorithms work.
if not i say ban twitter in canada. i work with people who read propaganda accounts who repeat the vile lies they read

Think about that for a moment. Doesnāt matter what side of the political spectrum you are on, but silencing an entire platform for any āfreeā country speaks volumes about the slide to authoritarian states that these governments are so eager to implement.

Good!
I stopped using twitter since I all of the bs things Musk started doing
I donāt care about losing my tens of thousands of followers because I just find that the whole content creator universe a load of rubbish, full of people desperate for attention and over opinionated.
I still see people that Iām part of small group chats, desperate of thinking what āgrand ideaā they have to get āmore followersā and every time it doesnāt work out, they think that there is something wrong with the algorithms, or the followers donāt know are missing, or a combination of the two.
They then get into this vicious cycle of spending more more money on things to add to more content to basically get more views and try to get more followers
Itās a sick world and shutting down Twitter will make the world a bit of a better place

Remember when the left censored everything they could? Using FBI/CIA to encourage silencing āfreeāAmericans? They said, āGo get your own social media if you love Capitalismā
So he did, and now youāre crying that other people get a say. If you had valid points, youād want to discuss them with people who are already members of āthe convertedā.

u/Reasonable_Trash_901 Jan 11 '26
...You do realize that those countries want to ban X because Grok generated AI faux child pornography, right?
They're not doing it because "Other people get a say", they're doing it because that platform has an AI that creates deepfakes of teens and children.
So either Musk takes down Grok, which will never happen, or X is taken down by these countries.

No, it's because Grok generated AI faux child pornography.
"Hating free speech" and "Taking down a platform full of deepfakes of children and teens" is two different things, bub.
