Elon Musk Lifts Restrictions on X Accounts in Brazil in Challenge to Courts

by Richard Eldred
7 April 2024 1:00 PM

Billionaire Elon Musk has announced his intention to defy court restrictions imposed on certain accounts on the social media platform X in Brazil, even if this results in the platform being shut down in the country. Bloomberg has the story.

X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, said in a post late Saturday that court decisions “forced” the site to block “certain popular accounts” in Brazil, without specifying the reasons or which posts allegedly violated the law. Shortly after, Musk wrote on the platform that he was defying the court’s ruling. …

While neither X nor Musk identified the judge that issued the ruling, the site’s billionaire owner was responding to another post that accused Brazil’s Supreme Court head Alexandre de Moraes of cracking down on free speech. …

The spat comes as courts widen a fight against so-called fake news and hate speech online. In a recent decision, the country’s Superior Electoral Court approved a resolution requiring social media networks to limit the spread of fake news during elections.

Worth reading in full.

Gilbert and Sullivan it ain’t. The clever and the catchy are things of the past. Sigh.
Kudos for trying, though.

Was the COVID Lab Leak Covered Up to Avoid a War?

This latest evidence suggesting that SARS-CoV-2 did indeed originate from the Wuhan lab raises other interesting questions, such as why Fauci and Collins immediately suppressed the theory. Did they fear then-president Trump might use the evidence to start a war with China?

Nicola Sturgeon takes a saw to classroom doors in ‘crackpot’ DIY effort to stop Covid in schools (telegraph.co.uk)

Further proof that the lunatics are running the asylum.

This was on GB News last night – 2000 doors to be sawed – is the aim now to freeze kids to death in the classroom if they can’t jab them

Seriously????

Last time I was in Glasgow the biting wind would have shorn a body in two. This is nothing short of child cruelty. Where is Save the Children?

Well Will you started it – so here is an alternative offering from north of Hadrian’s Wall.

BA BA

Resist defy do not comply
With the new world order,
They demand your soul complete control
With no regard for border;
Hung out to dry you must comply
With being marked and jabbed and muzzled,
If you object to this project
You leave your masters puzzled.

Rules for thee but not for me
Says Soros Gates and Schwab,
You’ll own nothing and be happy
With the green new dealing blob;
Build back better made you a debtor
As fiat pennies fall from heaven,
Watch the old succumb to cold
As he clock ticks past eleven.

Stay at home is a palindrome
For the bought and paid for media,
You will not find an enquiring mind
Without a case of anaphia;
The poor old sheep are all asleep
As the wolves disguised as shepherds,
Herd them into shearing sheds
Where the unjabbed are now lepers.
