> puzzling and unnecessarily partisan - content on X isn't invariably worthless drivel

Maybe this is because I’m European, but what is partisan about calling X invariably worthless drivel? Seems a lot like facts to me considering what has been going on with the platform moderation since Elon Musk bought it. It’s so bad that the EU consider it a platform for misinformation these days.

Do you have a citation on that last claim?

Can you define "misinformation"? Is it just things the government disagrees with?

Because the author specifically mentioned that it's worthless because it's 'right-wing' (a 'right-wing cesspool'), as if there aren't plenty of people espousing left-wing views on the platform. The right-wing comment in particular is what makes the statement blatantly partisan.
