German St. Pauli announced that he is leaving the social network X. In its statement, the club expresses dissatisfaction with the actions of owner X Elon Musk. fearing that the social network will manipulate public discourse during upcoming election campaign in Germany.
“Since taking over Twitter, as the platform was formerly known, Musk has turned X into a hate machine. Racism and conspiracy theories are allowed to spread unchecked and even curated. Insults and threats are rarely punished and are sold as freedom of speech.”
“In addition, after his election victory, Donald Trump chose Musk to head a new government department. Musk was a major supporter of the Trump campaign and also used X for this purpose. It should be assumed that X will also promote authoritarian, misanthropic and far-right content during the upcoming German election campaign, manipulating public discourse.”
“FC St. Pauli has already restricted the use of X and has increasingly published political statements in support of diversity and inclusion to take a stand against hate. The club is now ceasing its activities on X. The account will no longer be used, but content from the last 11 years will remain online for its contemporary historical value.”
“The club would like to thank its members for their critical exchange of views on what to do with X and encourages its subscribers on the platform to switch to BlueSky. The English language account of FC St. Pauli will also move to BlueSky.
