Yesterday for the first time the US announced sanctions against European officials associated with the EU’s Digital Services Act and UK’s Online Safety Act, and specifically for their overreach in attempting to censor Americans extraterritorially on US soil.
These censorial attempts were made via a dense web of NGOs which collaborated with various US institutions, including the Biden administration, in “flagging” American content as well as creating ‘black lists’ of American “offenders” earmarked for deplatformization and other forms of illegal free speech suppression.
i, for one, am glad the us is so keen on alienating their partners like this. fuck them.
I hope it develops into a full split. Chances though Europe will crawl back if the “genocide-lite” party wins.
Social media does not equal free speech, and having free speech does not mean that X has to be allowed. Ban X in Europe.
That is the way. X and other social media is just the propaganda tool of these tech billionaires. Just look at what content they censore. Unfortunately their tools function really good for their purpose.

World War III will be the United States and Russia against the rest of Europe and Asia, with China playing both sides.
