Sometimes I think we need to do more of that.

(52,669 posts)lots of accounts circulating screenshots. There's no evidence he was banned. Just a lot of talk of something he supposedly did, and how Musk supposedly reacted.

(10,618 posts)FACT CHECK: No, Elon Musk Did Not Ban Stephen King From X
A post shared on Threads claims X owner Elon Musk has banned author Stephen King from his platform.
View on Threads
Verdict: False
This claim is inaccurate. It originates as satire.
King made an X post calling out Musk, saying the Musk-man has posted an abundance of pro-Trump disinformation and outright lies, according to Mashable. Musk has shown plenty of support for Trump recently, endorsing him in July and donating millions to a pro-Trump PAC, the outlet reported.
A Threads post claims Musk has banned King from his platform. It shows headshots of Musk and King, both in suits.
(snip)
This claim is inaccurate. Kings X account is still active at the time of writing. Additionally, there are no credible news reports to corroborate the claim.

(34,773 posts)Something to laugh at, ease the tension, instead of feeling hopelessness and despair then great. So no, i will not be taking the post down!
If you look at the 3rd or 4th post here I thanked the person for their input about the meme not being true, but it was funny as hell! Others seemed to think so too.
You obviously lost your sense of humor. all one can do when the devil smiles at us is smile back! Geez

(52,669 posts)out for it.
And it makes DU look bad to have misinformation left in an OP that is ONLY being recced because people think it's true.
This is really pathetic.

(52,669 posts)especially when they might spread the misinformation. You've been deliberately tricking DUers with that OP ever since you found out it was incorrect.
