Report Claims NGO Linked to UK Labour and US Democrats Seeks to 'Kill Musk's Twitter'
The Facts
Substack outlets Racket News and The Disinformation Chronicle have claimed that leaked internal documents from the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) show "kill Musk's Twitter" to be an annual priority for the UK organization within monthly agenda notes.
Posting excerpts in a thread on X, co-author Paul Thacker alleges that the CCDH also held the goal of "trigger[ing] EU and UK regulatory action" despite being a tax-exempt non-profit. This has received over 30M views, and has been reposted by Elon Musk alongside the caption "this is war."
The Spin
First Labour Party member flocking to America to campaign, and now a covert campaign by the Labour-affiliated CCDH to destroy a free-speech social media platform simply because they have political disagreements. In true hypocritical fashion, the liberal left have been exposed for using the very same underhand tactics they have so often accused Trump and Russia of undertaking for nearly a decade. These developments are likely only to sway the US election even further in Trump's favor, with Starmer likely having a lot of explaining to do if the former President does indeed return to the White House.
There is no doubt Musk's policies have transformed the platform once known as Twitter into a safe haven for hate, racism, misogyny, and disinformation. Under the superficial veil of freedom of speech, Musk and his small circle of morally corrupt tech billionaires have turned X into a vehicle for dangerous right-wing ideology to thrive. Unless social media platforms are ever properly regulated and forced to take responsibility for the content they promote, it is best to leave X altogether and seek alternatives healthier for society and democracy.
