I wonder if anyone will discuss the transnational growth of the far-right movement (1) or Germany's change in vote on the Chat Control proposal at #fediday today. (2)

The #fediverse can be an important tool for discussing both topics. While most people still use big tech tools to spread […]

Wer immer noch meint, auf X Demokratie fördern zu können, wähnt sich als Goldfisch im Piranha-Becken.

Er rettet jedoch nichts, wird gefressen - und macht die Piranhas nur noch größer.

Elon Musk hat auf einer Großdemonstration zu Gewalt aufgerufen. Doch die Bundesregierung und viele Medien sind weiterhin auf seiner Plattform X. Was muss eigentlich noch passieren, bis sie diesem gewaltbereiten Rechtsradikalen den Rücken kehren? Ein Kommentar. netzpolitik.org/2025/komment...

@everton137 @zolke.bsky.social Americans and Europeans live well. The right and the left keep shouting about some unprecedented crisis but it’s just not true. There are problems that need to be dealt with, but the standard of living is good.

It’s not like during the Depression when ⅓ of workers […]

@zolke.bsky.social I believe their main tactic is disinformation campaigns. I agree that educational initiatives are the way to deal with them.

Although we connected through a campaign against X, this particular disinformation tool is just the tip of the iceberg. How can we further mitigate the […]

Absolutely. What’s even more cynical is that the AfD knows exactly what it’s doing: this kind of Nazi rhetoric isn’t accidental — it’s a calculated provocation designed to trigger outrage on one side and fun/thigh-slapping approval on the other.

@zolke.bsky.social I completely agree. What’s truly troubling - and dangerous - is how even well-educated individuals living in stable, somehow prosperous societies can be swayed by populist rhetoric. While it’s true that inequality is rising in Germany, it’s especially concerning when people […]

At least for French politicians, we can soon ask them to stop using a porn website for their official communications. 😆

France considers requiring Musk’s X to verify users’ age
“X has indicated since 2024 that it accepts the distribution of pornographic content. It must therefore be treated as such,” Digital Minister Clara Chappaz’s office said.

#Grok auf X erkennt den „White Genocide“ als real an – ein rassistisches Narrativ, eine Lüge. Direkt in den Algorithmus gebaut. Sogar, wenn man Musks Chatbot nur nach Tulpen oder Brad Pitt fragt.

Wie radikal muss Elon noch werden bis alle Demokraten den #eXit machen?

#Manipulation #Desinformation
Symbolbild, Musk mit schwarzem MAGA-Käppi und Grok, der erklärt, dass er darauf programmiert wurde, die Lüge vom "White Genocide" als real zu akzeptieren. Aktuelle Berichte (u. a. Guardian, CNN, FT, Links im Kommentar) zeigen: Der KI-Bot auf X verbreitet verschwörungsideologische Narrative – darunter die rassistisch aufgeladene Erzählung eines „White Genocide“. Solche Inhalte fügen sich nahtlos in das Deutungsmuster, mit dem Musk rechtsextreme Akteure und Parteien unterstützt.

Why politicians should leave X
Colloqium #35 May 10, 2025 at 12:00 pm CEST source: e.z.alvarenga Description In early 2025, we published an open letter urging European politicians and leaders to abandon X, formerly known as Twitter. Since its acquisition by Elon Musk, the platform has increasingly favored divisive narratives, often amplifying far-right movements and extremist voices. Political leaders who remain on X inadvertently legitimize a space where disinformation and hate speech thrive, putting democratic values at risk.

‘Before the 2024 U.S. election, 12 percent of Republicans viewed Canadians as “unfriendly” or “an enemy.” Now that number is 27 percent.’

A couple weeks back my wife’s TikTok algorithm started bringing her this distressing stream of (mostly) young American men *hating* on Canada.
