Since Musk’s takeover, X (formerly Twitter) has become a platform rife with disinformation and hate. We are taking this step together with dozens of other organizations.
For a long time, we hoped that X could be a safe and respectful space for discussions about important peace-related themes. At PAX, we believe in dialogue and discussion in a safe and inclusive manner. However, in recent years, X has devolved into a platform that facilitates a continuous stream of misinformation, hate speech, and threats. For us, this is the breaking point. As an organization committed to sustainable and inclusive peace, we can no longer contribute to a platform that enables such negative influences.
By leaving X, we are transitioning to an alternative: Bluesky. Bluesky is an open social media platform that operates differently from well-known platforms like Facebook or X. It runs on open protocols, giving users more control over their data, interactions, and algorithms. This makes open social platforms an appealing alternative to the large, centralized platforms. Will you join us?
Our account on X will remain visible as an archive, but we will no longer post new content.
