Right. To the EU and the USSR, free speech is subversive and cannot be permitted.

The EU has to maintain total information control. They cannot allow the truth to leak out.

Every day on X, people post videos of bad behavior of Muslim and African migrants, and lots of people see them and are appalled.

There they go again with censoring “disinformation”. I’m old enough to remember when someone said something wrong in a debate, you had to proved they were wrong, not just tape their mouth shut.

I also find it odd how much of what was considered disinformation just a few years ago is now recognized as truth. Almost as if it were planned.

Love X's response..."Busy now...Try back later".

Musk warned about International Involvements. We need to keep up the USA first. We have "0" to do with the EU and they are not our keepers in any way and have no authority to tell Musk what to do.

Re: "bad behavior of Muslim and African migrants"

Thanks, Sauron.

The charges against X were nebulous.

Unchecked immigration of young Muslim males into Europe brings it into focus.

The EU has a long history of attacking companies they can’t compete with.
