No surprise here, a psychotic gowl who wants the world to bend to his sick and twisted will.
Hopefully he and his cronies all die a roaring death soon.

A grantmaking network created by billionaire investor George Soros funded a controversial UK-based NGO which seeks to “kill” Elon Musk’s X media platform and censor conservative media, the Washington Free Beacon reported on Monday.
According to the database of Soros’ Open Society Foundation (OSF), the charity gave the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) a $250,000 grant last year “to provide general support.” While the nonprofit stipulates that its goal is to hold social media companies “accountable” for spreading hate, in practice, it has pressured advertisers to censor companies and lobbied to deplatform and cancel news organizations it found offensive, the paper said.
According to the outlet, the CCDH, founded by former Labour Party operative Imran Ahmed, has targeted conservative outlets such as The Federalist and the Daily Wire over alleged racist content. The nonprofit also reportedly tried to persuade US policymakers to create an “independent digital regulator.”

The CCDH has criticized a number of social media companies over what it sees as a failure to curtail extremism, but has been particularly hostile towards Musk’s X, the paper said. Its internal documents openly listed Kill Musk’s Twitter as its top annual priority, according to whistleblower documents published by journalists last year.
Musk has bitterly feuded with both the CCDH and Soros, and unsuccessfully tried last year to sue the nonprofit for running a “scare campaign” to drive away advertisers. The X CEO has also accused Soros of many “crimes against humanity,” and of financing attacks on his company Tesla earlier this year.
US President Donald Trump has said his administration will move to sue the Hungarian-born billionaire, accusing him of using “professional agitators” to orchestrate riots in the US.
Critics have long accused Soros and his network of NGOs of fueling various protest movements across the world, interfering in elections, and attempting to shape local media landscapes and suppress dissenting views.

Interesting that they had to reach back 8 years to find a photo of him alive.

I dont think he can do it but should greatly increase his vote where he will be hoping to win the 4th seat in the next GE.
Still enough SF to win here

You'd wonder what the SF woke nonsense has done to traditional SF voters?
They are chasing everything and have ignored their traditional constituency.

He has a chance, I expect it will be between Steenson v SFer, no other establishment party will come near. But I think you are correct in SF taking the seat and Steenson increasing his vote. With a GE possibly much sooner than the remaining 4 years this should stand to him.

A GE is a near certainty next year as others jump ship. A job outside ireland would temp them. Take the pension and run. They are looking at this prick and varadkar and are jealous.

hutch will run again for the craic. According to Kieran Kelly, they will have a candidate

France opens criminal case against Musk’s X​

Politicians claim that the platform’s algorithms boost hate speech and threaten democracy

France has opened a criminal investigation into whether algorithms on Elon Musk’s X platform were used to interfere in domestic politics.
The probe stems from two complaints filed in January, Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said on Friday. Without naming Musk directly, she stated that investigators will examine the company and its executives for allegedly manipulating algorithms “for purposes of foreign interference.”
The first complaint came from Eric Bothorel, a legislator from President Emmanuel Macron’s centrist Ensemble party. He alleged that a “reduction in the diversity of voices and options” on X has created a dangerous environment. Bothorel also criticized the platform’s moderation model as lacking clarity and accused Musk of personally intervening in its management, according to France 24. The complaint described X’s activities as posing a “real danger and a threat to our democracies.”
The second complaint reportedly originated from a government cybersecurity official who claimed that changes to the algorithm promote racist and homophobic content, aiming to “skew democratic debate in France.”

On Thursday, Socialist Party politicians Thierry Sother and Pierre Jouvet filed a separate complaint against Musk’s chatbot Grok, which recently generated anti-Semitic and other offensive comments on X, including praise of Adolf Hitler.
The Grok team said on Wednesday that they had updated the model to remove hate speech. Musk said the chatbot was “too compliant to user prompts” and “too eager to please and be manipulated” into producing hateful rhetoric.
European politicians have increasingly called for greater oversight of X and similar platforms, warning of potential abuse by bad actors. Musk caused controversy in Berlin when he openly endorsed the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany party (AfD) during parliamentary elections in February. The AfD significantly increased its vote share, becoming the second-largest faction in the Bundestag.

Time to close off the guest facility this evening, it was a great success and we are delighted to have @Perry now as a full member. I urge the others to join or be returned to the void.
The reason you're turning off the guest feature is because I've been a voice in favour of equality and vibrancy.

Since the downfall of p.ie I've been unable to spread awareness of LGBTQ issues and the plight of undocumented men in hotels.

I was given a voice here but now you're taking it away.

Disgraceful.

R u going to let roc back in? 🤔

Personally, I hate an echo chamber but many here think that the cardinal sin is not being an echo chamberist (Woof, c-c, MaF etc.)

Perhaps I hate an echo chamber because I find it less intellectually stimulating

You need to deal with your obsession with 'Woof'.
Can't be good for you when I'm living rent free in your tiny mind, Snitch. :)
