Campaign turns Elon Musk tweets into donations to migrant charities
Briefly

The Stand Against Elon campaign was launched to address Elon Musk's recent right-wing rhetoric, particularly his anti-LGBTQ+ comments. Immigration charities in the UK are encouraging donations of one pence for every tweet Musk posts on X/Twitter. The initiative aims to counteract his influence and turn every tweet into a tool for social justice. Various charities will benefit from this campaign, which highlights concerns over Musk's perceived attempts to amplify hate, particularly towards marginalized communities such as trans people and refugees.
Leila Zadeh, executive director of Rainbow Migration, stated: "We can't let the richest man in the world poison our politics. He is seeking to demonise trans people and refugees as he continues to amass record wealth."
Organisers of the Stand Against Elon campaign aim "turning every tweet he sends into a weapon in the fight for social justice," in response to Musk's controversial statements.
