In case you haven't seen it, what's happening right now on Twitter is hilarious.
Elon Musk is carrying on with his ludicrous accusations about the U.K.- Civil War, Immigrant driven societal breakdown, two tier system, white lives matter, yada yada yada.

He's tagging U.K. Prime Minister Kier Starmer into every post. Starmer's ignoring him, all Starmer's ministers and MPs are ignoring him. It's absolutely driving Musk nuts.

It's beautiful. Musk has turned into Starmer's Reply Guy.

As a Brit, this is so shameful . . . But this is what we have become.

@gwo0d Irrespective of the law, it nearly always seems to be the case that accountability is in inversion proportion to wealth.

How - if at all - can Elon Musk be held to account for his actions in the last few weeks? I’m not a lawyer by any stretch of the imagination, but I’d love to hear from anyone who is.

Obviously X should be blocked in the UK now, right? I know it feeds into their whole "victim narrative" but we know denying the far right a platform makes them less impactful. On principle I've usually been against blocking stuff but there's a clear safety issue going here until X gets a new moderation team and owner. #UKPolitics

I’m here on @Mastodon in open boycott of X. Gonna take me to court as well, Elon?

NEWS: Twitter/X wants to force people to advertise there, and they're going to court. Elon and Linda went forum-shopping, filing this case in Wichita Falls Division so that Judge Reed O'Connor was guaranteed to be assigned the case. Here's the complaint: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.txnd.393003/gov.uscourts.txnd.393003.1.0_1.pdf
