The owner of the social platform, X, Elon Musk describes the new chief of the British Executive Keir Starmer as a "hypocrite".
The battle between them has been public for more than a week, with the prime minister blaming social media companies for allowing false claims to spread about the suspect in the stabbing deaths of three minors in the town of Southport, which then led to the country's biggest riots. far-right groups that Britain experiences, except for the last three or four days and nights.
Billionaire, Elon Musk, who has announced freedom of speech as the main objective after buying Twitter, which I change the name of the platform to X, has expressed his disbelief in the prosecution of people who have incited violence in Britain. Sir Keir Starmer had earlier criticized the Platform X boss for his comments that the police in Birmingham had adopted a double-standard approach in dealing with protesters, with some being treated more harshly than others. Regardless of the rhetoric, even though the new British Prime Minister has not mentioned Elon Musk by name, with over 190 million followers, he remains another test and problem of his Labor administration, not yet overcome.
With the riots over, the British Labor Party in power will have to ask themselves what they are doing with the media platforms. In fact, shortly after taking over Twitter and renaming it X, Elon Musk announced what he described as a "general amnesty" for accounts closed by ex-Twitter, including the Englishman Tommy Robinson, the leader of the right-wing extremists. of the English Defense League, who used this platform to incite recent tensions.
The riots of these two weeks cannot be divorced from their material causes, such as the attack on the three minors who died, but social media has undoubtedly served as a catalyst for the violence that follows. Although this platform like X is not guilty of violence, it is far from innocent. But when these media are in the hands of a radical, like Elon Musk, and the richest man in the world, they become an even more potent problem.
But if the new Labor Prime Minister and his party find an honest and long-term solution, whether through sanctions and more regulated legislation for their operation, as suggested for media platforms, and social networks, where the values of freedom and necessity are balanced for the safety of the public sphere, this will undoubtedly be one of the most important achievements of the new political administration in Britain and the new centre-left Labor prime minister, if this were to happen.
