Musk decided to respond to the EC’s findings on Friday by claiming: "The European Commission offered X an illegal secret deal: If we quietly censored speech without telling anyone, they would not fine us.
“The other platforms accepted that deal. X did not.”
The same Musk who in March said, “Just to be super clear, I am not donating money to either candidate for US President,” and reportedly now has donated to a super PAC working to elect Donald Trump to the White House.
Lmao. What a response. Doesn’t respond in any way, instead blames eu for some random “illegal secret deal”. Sure bud.
Weird how much that response sounds like Trump. Just say random bs to divert the actual question.

Putin, Trump, and Musk. They’re doing the same thing. Lying without restraint, freely, at every opportunity.
Maybe we can translate that claim to what may have happened?
“The European Commission asked X to conform to regulation protecting its citizens or face fines.”

“You’re hosting hate speech. We have laws that say you can’t do that and offer your service in our jurisdiction. Remove the hate speech or we’ll fine you”
“THIS IS AN ILLEGAL SEVRER DEAL”
