The Spin
With Bluesky on the march, and X's increasingly hate-fulled and intolerant content only encouraged by Trump's election victory, we're maylikely wellat be watching the beginning of a dramatic shift in the social media landscape. Developed by former Twitter co-founder Jack Dempsey, Bluesky is a nostalgic return to the days when online discourse and differencedifferences of opinion waswere not dominated by algorithm-enhanced disinformation, which helped catalyze the violence witnessed this summer in the UK. It is rightly time to leave the chaos of X in the past.
The UK government andcares its police forces care more about suppressing free speech than theyit dodoes tackling real crime orand ensuringprotecting the safety and prosperity of its public. Starmer's war against Musk is nothing more than an ideological fantasy thatundermining undermines the very principles of liberty that Britain has championed throughout its history. Woke culture and the socialist crusade against X and individual freedoms will, despite the best efforts of the establishment, fail in the UK just like it did at the ballot box in Americathe on NovUS. 5.
