A Global Religion of Conformity is Rising:
- Conform or be persecuted. - Conformity is peace & safety. - Conformity is equality. - Conform or be cut-off from doing business. - Conformity is the rule by which you are saved. The Antichrist applauds censoring speech and the trend toward communism rule. |

I can picture some lower level euro arrests of Musk employee's before they go for him.
Musk is too much a gentleman to push back beyond a conversation, IMHO. |

(that analog seemingly the case here from what I can gather but again I have noot seen any actual evidence just media reporting) For some reason a lot folks here are thinking of the UK case where officer Shitheel was bullshitting about extradition for some hurt feelz, this is not the same case or subject matter. If the entire French case is built on crimes being committed and lack of moderation it's bullshit, but if there were say lawful (court) requests for information on crime suspects that were ignored it's a different kettle of fish. |

The first is where you make up what ever story you want and stomp out anyone who contradicts the narrative, like we did with Covid, the fake election and the Ukraine. The second version of propaganda is where you tell the truth, focusing on things an oppressive government does not want you to know or does not want attention drawn to. |

Nothing will happen and even if it does. No one is going to stand up and stop it. If the FBI detained musk tonight and extradited him to the French tomorrow. There would just be memes and more broken dreams.

I think durov defected to the west and gave the French access to his entire app to data mine for intel for Ukraine.
Durov fled to Dubai after threats to him by the Russians. Telegram is a massive communication asset to the Russian army. |

Both sides use it for messaging because it's fast and somewhat discreet. The NSA thinks it's the biggest goldmine in their history. Without Telegram, there is a huge hole of what we can (try to) gleam out of Russia. They know it, but they allowed it because it's a two way street and they gather everything. If that cut that off, it's a very serious situation. So many young men have died because of it, both sides, just accidentally posting an update only to be targeted using geolocation. Its macabre. China is ready to fill that void, but will we have access without really good VPNs? |

The worst thing we could do we be to underestimate them. They are counting on that. There are two Chinas. The CCP, and the other one. Supporting the other one is a much cheaper option, but it's not profitable. They know that. Total war. |
