On the platform previously known as Twitter, Elon Musk has apparently given orders to automatically remove those who follow the account of Palestine Action US (@Pal_ActionUS). Many people have reported that after following that account, their accounts automatically unfollow it. We can confirm this ourselves.
Whatever your politics in regard to Palestine, this is an important precedent. It confirms that Elon Musk bought Twitter in order to make it impossible for people to communicate except in ways that align with his personal agenda as a billionaire and racist.
Relying on X/Twitter to communicate means enabling Elon Musk to personally determine whom we can hear and whom is silenced.

For a world without billionaires and the social media platforms they control!
