Musk Accused of Censoring Conservative Critics of His Immigration Policies
Following accusations of censorship, at least 14 conservative accounts on X, many affiliated with ConservativeOG, reported losing premium features after criticizing Elon Musk’s immigration stance. These accounts, including prominent figures like Laura Loomer and Ryan Fournier, lost monetization capabilities and blue verification, despite remaining active. Musk attributed the issue to an algorithm reducing reach based on user blocks, a claim met with further accusations of shadowbanning. This incident occurred amidst a heated debate surrounding President-elect Trump’s immigration policy and increased scrutiny of Musk’s pro-immigration views within the MAGA sphere.
