British news outlet The Guardian has announced it will no longer post content on X due to the “disturbing content” on the “toxic media platform”, including racism and conspiracy theories. The Guardian wrote on its website on Wednesday that it had been considering the decision to stop posting on the social media outlet for a while, but the US election earlier in November “underlined” its decision. The paper’s main X handle, @guardian, was still available on Wednesday, but a message on it advised, “this account has been archived” while redirecting visitors to its website. During the US presidential election, Musk endorsed Donald Trump and used his personal account with nearly 205 million followers to push support in favour of the Republicans with several misleading posts. In recent months, some British charities and health and educational establishments have said they will no longer post to X.
