The role of Musk's X in the 2020s is remarkably similar to that of Rothermere's Daily Mail in the 1920s and 1930s. It pushed a narrative which claimed we were being "swamped" by "aliens" (mostly meaning Jews), undermining British interests and values, threatening "our" women and children ...

Oh, and I forgot to mention the conspiracy fictions, remarkably similar to some of those promoted by Musk: the Zinoviev letter it published (which it must have suspected was a forgery), the publicity it gave to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion (another forgery) and plenty of similar frothing.
