he has blocked over 300 accounts<\/a> used by the country’s democratic opposition to protest the unlawful arrest of presidential candidate \u0130mamo\u011flu. Musk is working with dictator Erdo\u011fan to silence the opposition. Musk has already targeted the democratic opposition’s accounts in the presidential election last year.<\/p>\nMusk, Zuckerberg and the right in Europe are brandishing freedom of expression like a standard while at the same time ensuring that only the opinions of autocrats and enemies of democracy are free.<\/b><\/p>\n
This clearly shows that Europe must not be intimidated by Musk & Co. The European Union stands for freedom of expression and Musk stands for the opposite. He wants to keep the authoritarians in power so that he has free rein. So that there is no freedom left in Europe at all. Anyone who spreads his pseudo-freedom-of-speech narrative<\/b> is supporting this dirty game.<\/p>\n
Europe must not be intimidated by Elon Musk or the US government, but take decisive action against algorithms that use hate speech and disinformation to make democratic opinions invisible.<\/p>\n
We need to put pressure on the EU\u2019s decision makers. But for that, I need you: please forward this mail to all your contacts and share my Insta post here: LINK<\/b><\/p>\n
The more people understand this dangerous narrative of autocrats\u2019 freedom of expression, the greater the pressure on the EU Commission and EU governments.<\/p>\n
Thank you for your support!<\/p>\n
With determined greetings,<\/p>\n
Your Alexandra Geese<\/p>\n
