@EUCommission
If the EU wishes to do something 10 times more powerful and impactful, it should wholeheartedly embrace and promote the #SocialWeb and extricate itself from State Controlled #USA #SocialMedia such as #Facebook and #Twitter.
The #EU should provide free assistance to anyone who wants to set up a #Mastodon or #PeerTube or #Pixelfed server.
It should make their own #Fediverse servers their primary source of communication. It should spend money on promoting #ActivityPub and its benefits.
This is how the EU fights #Trump #Fascism and puts Social Media and its moderation into the hands of EU citizens.

"What a perfect encapsulation of our media moment: a billionaire buys a storied newspaper, blocks endorsements, mandates coverage aligned with his ideology, and then silences anyone who dares question the new direction—all while claiming to champion "personal liberties."

"I am taking this step, after more than 40 years at The Post, following Will's decision to spike a column that I wrote expressing a concern about the newly announced direction for the section and declined to discuss the decision with me."

Molloy says,

"This is what happens when newspapers are run like authoritarian fiefdoms instead of journalistic institutions."

Dem Congressman Who Shared “Elon Musk Dick Pic” Hits Back at Trump DOJ

Rep Robert Garcia slammed the department’s dangerous encroachment on #FreedomOfSpeech.
https://newrepublic.com/post/191813/robert-garcia-donald-trump-doj-elon-musk-dick-pic

"Rep #RobertGarcia hit back at threats from the #DOJ and criticized the agency for trying to “silence” lawmakers speaking out about #ElonMusk.

Earlier... Garcia received a letter from the DOJ regarding comments he’d made... opposing Musk’s takeover of the federal #government"

@ulrichkelber
#FreeSpeech y'all

@ulrichkelber Und ich dachte #FreeSpeech ist das höchste aller Güter in den USA, egal wie dumm die Aussagen sind. Aber nicht alle sind da gleich scheint es.

Elon Musk Threatens to Imprison Entire News Agency

President Elon Musk has set his sights on a new target.
https://newrepublic.com/post/191591/elon-musk-imprison-news-agency-60-minutes

" #ElonMusk is pushing for a massive crackdown on #FreeSpeech...

“...They deserve a long prison sentence.”

Musk’s #fascist threat to imprison #journalists was a deflection written in response to a post from #60Minutes that criticized his efforts to gut #USAID."

"Elon Musk, who reliable sources inform us is still not technically the president, wants to see reporters whose coverage he doesn’t like thrown in jail... he posted last night. “They deserve a long prison sentence.”"
