1/5 Elon Musk is attacking Wikipedia after failing to buy it in order to turn it into a Kremlin propaganda machine (he really doesn't want you to verify facts!) Image
2/5 Elon Musk has once again criticized Wikipedia and urged his followers to stop donating to the platform. He previously made an offer to purchase Wikipedia, and it seems that offer is still on the table. Image
3/5 Musk seems determined to hinder Americans' ability to easily verify facts or access information. He appears willing to do whatever it takes to make many Americans even more unaware than they already are. Image
4/5 Now is the perfect time to donate to Wikipedia to ensure it remains as it is and doesn't get purchased by a far-right oligarch who would transform it into a Kremlin propaganda tool. Image
5/5 Sources:
NY Post - Elon Musk urges supporters not to donate to Wikipedia after it spent $50M on DEI: ‘Wokepedia’
The Economic Times - Elon Musk’s $1 Billion Offer to Wikipedia Still Stands Image

1/6 This is a thread about the PayPal Mafia and its disturbing links to Jeffrey Epstein.

They want you to think they are visionary leaders, but the reality is much darker Image
2/6 The PayPal Mafia is a dangerous yet pathetic group of people.

Mostly made up of fascist foreign-born billionaires, they have used their wealth to become oligarchs.

They do not all get along today, but many of them share one horrific bond: Jeffrey Epstein Image
3/6 Take Elon Musk.

For years, he lied and downplayed his relationship with Epstein. But released documents reveal they emailed constantly.

Musk literally asked Epstein what night would be the wildest party on his island.

He is a massive hypocrite and a pathological liar Image

1/10 If the last few days of Iranian strikes on Dubai have proven anything, it’s that a massive number of people completely despise the city and those living there.

And honestly? There are very good reasons to despise them.

A thread on the city of hypocrites 🧵👇 Image
2/10 Right now, the UAE is running a pathetic paid propaganda campaign.

They have enlisted some of the worst internet grifters, including Andrew Tate, to desperately pump out the message that "everything is under control" while the region is literally at war Image
3/10 Spoiler: Everything is not under control.

No matter how well your air defenses are working, you cannot claim "everything is fine" when ballistic missiles and kamikaze drones are smashing into your luxury hotels.

It’s a pathetic lie Image

1/11 Trump’s operation in Iran is not just reshaping the Middle East.

It is dramatically altering the geopolitical calculus for Ukraine.

For Kyiv, this new conflict is a massive double-edged sword.

Here is a breakdown of the very real upsides and downsides 🧵 Image
2/11 Iran has been the lifeblood of Russia's terror campaign.

They supplies the Kremlin with thousands of shaheds.

Seeing a core pillar of this anti-Western axis dismantled directly hurts Putin's war machine.

When Tehran loses, Moscow loses Image
3/11 The world finally gets it.

The Gulf is now dealing with the exact Iranian drone swarms Ukraine has fought for years.

The sheer panic caused by a few hundred drones in the Middle East is making everyone understand what a normal Tuesday looks like in Kyiv Image

1/8 Today marks the start of the 5th year of Russia's failed full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

However, Putin will not stop until he reaches his strategic goals or faces massive pressure, and the West is pathetically failing to provide that pressure Image
2/8 Despite four years of grueling war, Russia controls less land today than it did just one month into the invasion.

They have not managed to capture and hold a single regional capital, and Putin is further from his strategic goals than before this war even began Image
3/8 We certainly cannot rely on Donald Trump.

The Epstein emails strongly suggest he is compromised by Russia, and he has proven over and over that he will never pressure Putin.

He and his envoys clearly want to force a deal that heavily favors Moscow Image

1/9 Four years ago, Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Putin thought he would take Kyiv in days and turn Ukraine into a demilitarized satellite state.

Instead, the invasion turned into a pathetic strategic failure for Russia Image
2/9 Russia wanted to erase Ukraine from the map.

Four years later, the exact opposite is true.

Ukraine is more united, militarized, and globally integrated than ever before.

Moscow tried to break the Ukrainian identity but only forged it in steel Image
3/9 The territorial failure is staggering.

Despite four years of grueling warfare, Russia actually controls significantly less Ukrainian land today than it did just one month into the invasion.

Their military peaked in March 2022 and has degraded ever since.

1/6 Two men are responsible for the war in Ukraine not ending:

Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.

Russia started this fully unprovoked invasion and they are keeping it going.

Meanwhile Trump is doing nothing to pressure them Image
2/6 Ukraine has accepted all of Trump's ceasefire proposals while Russia has accepted zero.

Instead of negotiating, Putin has massively increased his strikes on Ukrainian civilians since the new US administration took office Image
3/6 Despite this escalation, Trump completely refuses to pressure Moscow.

He takes leverage away from Kyiv and wrongfully blames them for the violence while giving Putin a free pass.

You cannot broker peace when you squeeze the victim and ignore the aggressor Image
