In the post shared by Musk, the account lamented the presence of humanitarian groups in the Mediterranean Sea that rescue migrants from distressed vessels.
“These NGOs are subsidized by the German government,” the account posted. “Let’s hope AfD wins the elections to stop this European suicide.”
The replies are insane, tbh.
It’s crazy just how quickly Musk has centralized such an extremely xenophobic and fascist community on Twitter, even compared to before.
And of course they all have that paid checkmark. No wonder he does it so consistently, it makes a fortune. Sigh.
The platform will likely get blocked within the EU quite soon if it stays this way. After a devastating report about misinformation, they loosened oversight even more, meaning it actively does not conform to EU regulations (regarding hate speech for example) anymore. Facebook has already received hefty fines for less so I honestly don’t expect Xitter to be around much longer.
You’re assuming those accounts are real, and also assuming they’re funded externally
