It breaks my heart 💔 that we 🇪🇺 are actively driving traffic and profits 💶 to X which is undermining our democracies.

If you feel the same, you can contact ✉️ president von der Leyen via https://commission.europa.eu/about/organisation/president/contact-president_en

Every small action counts. (See thoughts here: https://mastodon.social/@leanderlindahl/115864851197016292)

We must explain that supporting this hostile foreign entity and circumventing a democratic open dialogue, has a cost in loss of reputation and trust with the public.

Contact form form for President von der Leyen on the EU commission web site . The message in the form says:
Dear Mrs von der Leyen,

X is a network owned by foreign oligarchs that don't share our democratic values and undermines our democracies.

Please don't provide them with free advertising, traffic, engagement and revenue. Don't feed the monster.

Stop posting your statements on X. Please inquire with the Directorate General to remove the logotypes and links that affords X with free advertising on "our" European Commission web site. It breaks my heart to see us actively supporting them with traffic and revenue.

Just because X is not banned it doesn't mean that you have an obligation to use it and promote it.

Stop feeding the monster.

Leander Lindahl,
Lund Sweden
