Calling himself a “free speech absolutist”, Musk granted an amnesty to hundreds of accounts that had been kicked off the platform. Within hours, those belonging to right-wing Britain First leader Paul Golding, along with former deputy Jayda Fransen and the party itself, reappeared. “We’re absolutely pleased,” Golding says. “Now that we’re back on Twitter, our following is growing very, very rapidly.
[Edited for a typo.]
I’m going to go ahead and say this is all by design.
Yep, now people who buy into Musk’s Twitter Blue are boosted on the site, and the only people willing to buy into that are right wingers and bootlickers
Yeah this is a feature not a bug
He’s desperate to make Twitter profitable, so he’s embracing the biggest bunch of marks on the planet, the supporters of right-wing politicians.
As one had asked to define ‘far right’: I just stumbled upon the article on a white nationalist publisher’s data exposed in Amazon cloud leak
The right winger in the article is the US citizen Greg Johnson. His views reveal a completely insane state of mind. How out of touch can one get?
Define far-right
Probably just wants common-sense immigration.
what an absolutely delicious lack of critical thinking
bahahahahahahahahahahaha
I did. It’s just a bunch of articles, all randomly served up. Looks like common sense immigration policy, common sense environmental policy, that sort of thing.
Man, y’all are just stuck in your echo chambers, aren’t you?
Buddy, these are not the people you want to defend. Paul Golding has been arrested a half dozen times for stupid bullshit. He’s been convicted in terrorism charges. Jayda has been arrested with him as well, numerous times for religious aggravated harassment and other things. They are literally a WORSE version of the Marjorie Taylor Greens and Lauren Boebert of the UK.
And you call all these things “common sense” policies which is laughable. Their environmental “policy” is to just deny climate change completely. So common sense is to ignore the scientific consensus?

Those are the names of the people mentioned in the OP. Did you not even read it? Lmao
But okay. If you are the type of person to defend people that bang on Muslim owned restaurant windows shouting “Pedophiles! Foreigners!” like these two have been arrested for just because they are on your “team”, well, who am I to convince you that’s a bad look?
Those are the names of the people mentioned in the OP. Did you not even read it?
I guess this is how the far right (and far left) is recruiting its infantry - people like @Blamemeta who don’t know the people mentioned, obviously didn’t even read the article, but they have an ‘opinion’ and are accusing others of being in an echo chamber. They are just propaganda parrots very much the same as the so-called ‘tankies’ here on Lemmy.
Who better to have on your team than people that blindly defend you regardless of how vile your behavior is just because they hate the same people.
You keep using this phrase “common sense”. I don’t think you exactly know what it means.
Weird. I’m sure it’s a coincidence that a favorite tactic of far right agitators and fascists (world wide) is calling their disgusting views/goals “common sense”.
You keep using this phrase “common sense”. I don’t think you exactly know what it means.
Yeah I don’t think you know what common sense means there friend… its good to take a serious moral inventory of yourself every now and then. Also it might help to brush up on economics, immigration and human empathy… hope you never find yourself in a situation a lot of immigrants find themselves in…
They really are. People will increasingly move to the right all across Europe because they refuse to compromise. Oh well. Democracy will prevail :)
please could you clarify what you’d like them to compromise on?
Tell you what, give you guys the same kind of compromises you guys give us conservatives. No more immigrants, flat out. We’ll let the ones already inside stay for the moment. Exact same sort of compromise. Sound fair?
No, because you feel the need to say “for the moment” and give away your fascist end game. You and those like you cannot be trusted in the moment, because you always have your eyes fixed on your personal favorite form of genocide in the future.
