Okay that's way better than expected; it looks like the hashtag reached him. I'm not sure the substance of this case but the ADL is all about information control and it's nice to see a grassroots effort getting in their way.

{@Safety | 12 September 2023}

Tomorrow the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) will release a report on how X allegedly moderates content. While we wish the CCDH would have sent us the full report for a fair review, the choice was made to share their purported findings with journalists.

To be clear, we will continue to protect free expression and simultaneously keep our platform safe for users. We have strong content moderation policies and enforcement in place to monitor the ~500 million posts that are created each day on X. We either remove content that violates our policies or label and restrict the reach of certain posts. By restricting the reach of a post, we significantly reduce the number of times a piece of content is seen to protect our users.

Based on the limited information we’ve seen, the CCDH is asserting two false claims – that X did not take action on violative posts and that violative posts reached a lot of people on our platform.

Firstly, from what was shared with us, we did enforce the posts that violated our policies. Second, the CCDH is misrepresenting how many people have viewed the content, by incorrectly reporting the follower counts of the post authors, rather than reporting the number of people who were exposed to the posts. By not using impression data the CCDH is misleading the public and making unsubstantiated assertions about the user activity on X.

X’s number one priority remains: to keep our users safe and our platform healthy. We actively listen to our communities and work closely with outside groups. Our doors are always open to organizations who want to work with us to strengthen our policies and improve our approach. And when the full report is released tomorrow, we will review it and we will take action as needed.

BREAKING: SEC SUES ELON IN TWITTER STOCK PURCHASE CASE

Another witch-hunt has started.

The SEC, which has been investigating Elon’s 2022 purchase of Twitter shares, is now suing to force him to testify and comply with their subpoena.

This is yet another attack on Elon by the ‘alphabet organizations’.

Here are a few of the others:

1. TESLA: The DOJ and the SEC claimed Musk used millions of dollars from Tesla to secretly build himself a ‘spacious glass structure’ labeled as 'House for CEO Elon Musk.' (Not making this up)

Elon replied: “This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. Where is this house!? Metaphors don’t count!”

2. X/TWITTER: X got in trouble with the Biden Administration after refusing to hand over Trump’s personal Twitter data and information to prosecutors.

The information included:

- Trump’s use of the account,
- Whether others had access to it
- Whether he might have written draft tweets that he left unposted.

Twitter initially resisted complying with the search warrant, arguing that the order violated Trump’s constitutional right to free speech. This resulted in a federal judge holding the company in contempt and fining it $350,000.

3. SPACE X: The DOJ sued SpaceX for discriminating against refugees in the company’s hiring process.

They claim the company discourages refugees from applying for positions, giving their applications unfair consideration and refusing to hire them even if they were deemed qualified applicants.

Yep, SpaceX was attacked by the DOJ for not hiring enough Americans. What’s ironic is that the DOJ is rarely allowed to hire non-Americans.

Why did all these attacks begin after @elonmusk acquired X and began his fight for Freedom of Speech?

Elon wants your entire financial life hosted on X.

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/10/27/elon...-x-report.html

X owner Elon Musk is attempting to create a future in which X users can use the platform for their entire financial lives, according to a report from The Verge.

The plan, which Musk told his employees Thursday, is to roll out the feature in 2024. CEO Linda Yaccarino also said that it is a “full opportunity” in the next calendar year, The Verge reported.

“When I say payments, I actually mean someone’s entire financial life,” Musk said in the meeting, according to audio The Verge obtained. “If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”

Came across this earlier today:

ELEVEN
"Cross My Heart and Hope to Die"—The Mysterious "X" factor

An X is an ancient symbol for change or transformation.. .long associated in medieval and renaissance art with the coming of the Messiah who shall make all things new.
—Jim Tresner, 33°
Scottish Rite Journal

The Illuminist/Masonic meaning of the X is simply this: It is the sign of Osiris, the great (Egyptian) sun God...
—Texe Marrs
Dark Majesty

The sign, or letter X, has a long history of use in the Ancient Mystery Religions, in apostate Judaism, in Freemasonry, and in the occult. The Illuminati elite use it to this day to symbolize key phenomena and mark significant events.

The mysterious letter X seems to take on a wide and varied life of its own, with or without the secret aid of the elite sponsorship. Mark Euston, of the Christian Intelligence Resource Network, in a letter to the author, detailed some of the many examples of the use of the letter X. For example, the well-known science fiction TV show, The X Files.



Pornographic movies are rated X and the more sensational movies in the raw flesh category are touted as XXX, or triple X. Euston noted that we have the Microsoft Corporation creation of X-box, the movie X-Men, off-brand products are called "Brand X," and of course, there is the U.S. terrorist prison camp, Camp X-Ray at Guantanamo, Cuba. Today's youth have been called Generation X, and a lot of folks are concerned about a planet, or star, reported to be speeding toward us called Planet X that has occult significance.

Euston asks about all the usages of X,

"Are these just strange coincidences, some type of mind control trigger, or a subliminal conditioning of some kind?"

Good question.



Another friend, Kathy Creek, wrote and asked if I had noticed the many new drugs being released by pharmaceutical firms with either a V, Z, or an X in their name? She mentioned an ad she had seen for Clarinex, an allergy drug that had a little sun sign used to dot the letter "i" in Clarinex.

John Myers, another astute friend interested in such topics, sent me a lengthy letter and included an excerpt from author Edward Waite's reference book, A New Encyclopedia of Freemasonry. Myers wryly observed that, "generally, things that are bad are X-rated." He mentioned, too, the interesting use of the letter X in the Rx of drug stores; the use of the four-letter, abbreviated word Xmas to replace Christmas, and the fact that, in Black's Law Dictionary, it says that the sign or mark of X is sometimes made as a substitute for a man's signature on legal documents.

And the continued use of the mysterious X abounds. Children at play can be heard to say, "Cross my heart and hope to die." In the Greek alphabet, the letter Chi is denoted with the symbol X, and given the numerical designation of 600. The numeroligists say that triple X, then, would yield the number 666.

Black Muslim leaders obviously see X as a substitute name of great spiritual significance. Two well-known Black Muslim leaders have been named Malcolm X and Louis X, names they chose for themselves. The latter, who was born Louis Eugene Wolcott in 1933 in New York City, changed his name to Louis X after his conversion to Islam by Black Muslim leader Elijah Muhammed. Today, he is known as Louis Farrakhan. It is well-known that Farrakhan is a 33° Prince Hall Mason.


X as Symbol for the Sun God

According to Dr. C.J. Koster, head of the Institute for Scripture Research in South Africa, X was the emblem of the Chaldean (Babylonian) sky God. Koster says that X was an ancient symbol of the sun deity and that the letter carried with it sexual connotations. In the old Semitic languages, X represented the cross.1

Freemasonry early-on latched onto this letter exactly because of its paranormal significance as a sign of Lucifer, the solar (sun) God. The Masonic Lodge also uses X because of its sexual meanings and its Babylonian origins. Writing in the Scottish Rite Journal, the official journal of the Mother Supreme Council, 33°, Jim Tresner discussed the use of X in the ritual ceremony for the 17°, Knight of the East and West.2



Tresner, a 33rd degree Mason, emphasized that the 17th degree ritual is "one of the most powerful and profound degrees of the Rite."3

"Here," said Tresner, "we encounter raw spiritual energy" and "we begin to glimpse the spiritual power which is available" to the person who is able to access it.4


X as Symbol of Transformation

Tresner goes on to suggest that the X, representing the Roman numeral 10, also symbolizes the 10 yuds, or manifestations, of the Jewish Cabala's Tree of Life (the Sephiroth). He notes that the candidate for this degree wears two cordons, one black in color, the other white, which symbolizes the duality of Masonic doctrine.

"The fact that they cross each other," Tresner explains, "suggests the unions of opposites or equilibrium (Ordo Ab Chao)."5

"In crossing," says Tresner, "they form an X shape." X, he observes, "is an ancient symbol for transformation."6

"This degree," Tresner concludes, "provides a spiritual jolt or jump-start in preparation for the transformation, refinement, and redefinition to come."7

The Drudge Report of today bears no resemblance to the Drudge Report of the 90's or 00's. They are all in on the state narratives, whatever they need to be. The viewership and ad revenue is way down, too. Whatever you think of Musk, he allows a place where the official narrative can be questioned... So, his reputation must be destroyed.

I remember not too long ago that he used to link Infowars articles all the time, and even went on Alex's show. Then he went anti-Trump... which I don't really have a problem with.... but the constant $#@!ting on Musk all the time is really bizarre and pisses me off. I get he is a flawed person and all, but he has done more to advance the cause of free speech than anyone else I can think of. The more that people like Drudge constantly hate on him the more it makes me appreciate all that he done.
