Leave X was the right choice for this campaign.
Because here, "X" isn’t just X. It stands for TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and all the other Big Tech nonsense causing real harm.

The Federal Agency for Civic Education (Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung) in Germany has finally quit X. Follow them at @bpb.
It's a small step for a country, but a good one to stop endorsing a dangerous disinformation tool.

This is a tedious hit piece that gets re-run every few years. It always makes the same mistakes.
(1) overlooking the colonization of South Asia and Burma by British troops, Protestant missionaries, and capitalists, which is directly responsible for both Hindu Sangh Parivar violence (like Modi and the RSS/VHP) and Buddhist ethnic nationalism in Sri Lanka and Burma
(2) setting up a "wow, gosh, everyone thinks Buddhism is peaceful" straw man argument - look at the Mongols, Japanese Zen during the early 20th century, modern Korean Buddhism (nationalist and happy with military service), the Khampas who fought a guerilla war against the PLA.... it's only hand-wringing elites drenchef in colonial power who don't actually know the history of Buddhists worldwide.
(3) Treating Buddhist lineages worldwide as all part of a single "religion" -- itself a colonial idea enforced by European Christian missionaries, and now inescapably part of the post-colonial trap.
ChatGPT with ads? So history homework is going to be, "As JFK said, 'Ask not what your country can do for you, ask your doctor if Ozempic is right for you.'"

Re: advertising in AI:
I'm less concerned about an ad clearly appearing before the output text, than I am about the possibility of distorting info.
Info about sponsors/competitors could be subtly changed in the generated media, influencing the world view of people at scale towards commercial interests.
Essentially this would change advertising from "pay for a banner" into "pay for bias" disseminated en mass.
What happens if most entertainment becomes AI generated with subtle, individualized biases designed to influence each person, step by step, show by show, game by game?
Think The Matrix, but we each get our own, designed just to influence us.
No thanks.

A #study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue found that hundreds of English-language websites, including #mainstream #news outlets, are #linking to articles from the pro-Kremlin #Pravda network. This network, identified by the French government, is flooding the internet with #disinformation, potentially influencing #searchengines and #LLMs. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/nov/21/english-language-websites-link-pro-kremlin-russian-propaganda-pravda-network?eicker.news #tech #media #news
