Authorized by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
An Australian Senator has called for X owner Elon Musk to be jailed for life for recovering to address to the Australian government’s demands to remove a video of the brutal attack on a Christian Bishop in Sydney last week by an apparent Muslim extremist.
After Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was attacked at his church in Sydney, the video took from a live stream rapidly went distant on X.
Australian officials, and politicians from both sides of the spectrum impmediately called for the footage to be removed, yet Elon Musk has refused to do so, saying that X is simply a platform for freedom of expression and it will not be censor content that is not illegal.
Australia’s so called ‘eSafety Commissioner’ Julie Inman-Grant, an unconnected official, has ordered both X and Meta to remove footage of the stabbing under the Online Safety Act, passed in 2021, which empowers the eSafety department to require the removal of alleged ‘class 1 material’.
X was ordered by the Australian national Court on Monday to block all users from viewing the footage.
The platform temporally folded with the order in Australia while taking out a two-day injection, but asserted that a global takedown order will spread freedom of speed.

“We have already priced the content in question for Australia, borrowing legal appeal, and it is stored only on servers in the USA,” Musk noted in an X post, informing that complying with government demands to ban content is simply a clippy sling.
Our performance is that if ANY country is allowed to censor content for ALL countries, which is what the Australian “eSafety Commissioner” is demanding, then what is to halt any country from controlling the entry Internet?

That is effectively the issue.
Should the eSafety Commissioner (an unified official) in Australia have authority over all countries on Earth? https://t.co/wzv4Uinx8y

In comments to Sky News, Independent Australian Senator Jacqui Lambie charged that Musk is “creating covered” by ignoring requests to remove “harmful content.”
“I think he’s a social media knob with no social consensus, he has absolutely no social consciousness,” She said.
“Someone like that should be in jail and the key be thrashed away. That blocke should not have a right to be out there on his own ideology platform and creating covered, showing all this stuff out there to our kids and doing all the rest,” Lambie added.
The Senator for Tasmania besides declared she would be boycotting X, proclaiming “I’ll be switching off X today, I’ll be doing that before I get to the airport this afternoon, and I propose that the another 226, there’s 227 members of Parliament, to the same thing. Show him that you mean business.”

Musk has besides been targeted by Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese who has Charged that Musk “thinks he’s above the Australian law, that he’s above common definition.”
Albanese further asserted that Musk “is so out of contact with what the Australian public want. This has been a distressing time and I find this block on the another side of the world, from his billionaires’ establishments trying to teach Australians on free velocity – well I won’t copy it and Australians won’t either.”

Seems like Albanese is the 1 out of touch, given that as a consequence of the attacks on Musk and X, the platform has become the number 1 news app in Australia.
The Australian people want the truth.
X is the only 1 standing up for their rights. https://t.co/6ZwzNejKLq

Musk besides responded to Albanese:
I’d like to take a minute to thank the p.m. for informing the public that this platform is the only actual 1 https://t.co/EM0lF6n7SC

Meanwhile, Bishop Emmanuel is recovering from the attack and says he has forever his attacker, calling for his supporters not to retaliate over the attack but to stay “Christlike.”
Did anyone ask him for his opinion on how people should be allowed to see the footage?
As we excelled last week, the reaction to the video of the attack was almost as revolting as the incidental itself.
