Summary
Over 60 German and Austrian universities and research institutions announced their exit from Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter), citing the platform’s promotion of right-wing populist content and its incompatibility with democratic and scientific values.
This follows Germany’s Federal Court of Justice and trade unions leaving the platform.
The German government is also debating a withdrawal, expressing concerns over X’s polarizing effect on political discourse.
The departure comes after Musk’s public support for Germany’s far-right AfD party and a live talk with its leader Alice Weidel ahead of upcoming elections.
What the hell took them so fucking long. Anyone still using Xitter is a fascist enabler.
Well ain’t that a sweeping generalization. Almost like it can’t possibly be true…
Like: Vacation in SA = Support butchering of Journalists.
It’s really that easy. Give money to evil people (on purpose knowingly)… support evil shit.
Consumersnhave some responsibility too. Everything else is deflection and: Mimimimi
Like Nestle… avoid their products, kill the company. “But I like Nesquick”… Alright, eat Nesquick kill some Chocolate Framers for it, but be aware what you do.
I always chuckle when I see this in the wild. For non-Germans: mimimi is mocking what someone said, like they are whining, for instance if they proclaim something is unfair.
Like AOC and Bernie?
Yes
