Wave of abandonments from X: It has become a sewer, goodbye

The wave of abandonments from X, the social platform led by Elon Musk, is growing. After the recent controversies linked to the tycoon’s political positions and the accusations of poor content moderation, even illustrious voices on the Italian scene have decided to close their accounts, especially after the tycoon’s recent (yet another) interference in our affairs. Among these stand out Piero Pelù, former frontman of Litfiba, and Elio e le Storie Tese. Pelù, with an eloquent gesture of the middle finger towards Musk, justified his choice on Instagram by denouncing the “very dangerous statements” and the growing restriction of personal freedoms on the platform. An invitation to meet in real spaces, “where real and tangible life still exists”, accompanies the farewell to social media.
