"If Musk created X now, the way it is, would we in the media use it? No! we wouldn't touch it a barge pole."
Are unmediated platforms like X beyond redemption - and should we stop using it?

"What we are witnessing on our streets is fascist violence fuelled by racism and Islamophobia. Only by naming it and understanding clearly what it is can we work to defeat it."

High taxes + high wages = good for services and good for people.
Low taxes + low wages = good for the wealthy to exploit the workers.
