An Australian Senator has called for X owner Elon Musk to be jailed for life for refusing to adhere to the Australian government’s demands to remove a video of the brutal attack on a Christian Bishop in Sydney last week by an apparent Muslim extremist.
After Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was attacked at his church in Sydney, the video taken from a live stream quickly went viral on X.
Australian officials, and politicians from both sides of the spectrum immediately called for the footage to be removed, yet Elon Musk has refused to do so, saying that X is a platform for freedom of expression and it will not censor content that is not illegal.
Australia’s so called ‘eSafety Commissioner’ Julie Inman-Grant, an unelected official, has ordered both X and Meta to remove footage of the stabbing under the Online Safety Act, passed in 2021, which empowers the eSafety department to demand the removal of so-called ‘class 1 material’.
X was ordered by the Australian Federal Court on Monday to block all users from viewing the footage.
The platform temporarily complied with the order in Australia while taking out a two-day injunction, but asserted that a global takedown order violates freedom of speech.
“We have already censored the content in question for Australia, pending legal appeal, and it is stored only on servers in the USA,” Musk noted in an X post, warning that complying with government demands to ban content is a slippery slope.
Our concern is that if ANY country is allowed to censor content for ALL countries, which is what the Australian “eSafety Commissar” is demanding, then what is to stop any country from controlling the entire Internet?
We have already censored the content in question for… https://t.co/aca9E4uAB7

In comments to Sky News, Independent Australian Senator Jacqui Lambie charged that Musk is “creating hatred” by ignoring requests to remove “harmful content.”
“I think he’s a social media knob with no social conscience, he has absolutely no social conscience,” she said.
“Someone like that should be in jail and the key be thrown away. That bloke should not have a right to be out there on his own ideology platform and creating hatred, showing all this stuff out there to our kids and doing all the rest,” Lambie added.
The Senator for Tasmania also declared she would be boycotting X, proclaiming “I’ll be switching off X today, I’ll be doing that before I get to the airport this afternoon, and I suggest that the other 226, there’s 227 members of Parliament, do the same thing. Show him that you mean business.”
Musk responded to the unhinged rant, noting “This woman has utter contempt for the Australian people,” and later adding “She is an enemy of the people of Australia.”
Musk has also been targeted by Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese who has charged that Musk “thinks he’s above the Australian law, that he’s above common decency.”
Albanese further asserted that Musk “is so out of touch with what the Australian public want. This has been a distressing time and I find this bloke on the other side of the world, from his billionaires’ establishments trying to lecture Australians on free speech – well I won’t cop it and Australians won’t either.”
Seems like Albanese is the one out of touch, given that as a result of the attacks on Musk and X, the platform has become the number one news app in Australia.
Musk also responded to Albanese:
Meanwhile, Bishop Emmanuel is recovering from the attack and says he has forgiven his attacker, calling for his supporters not to retaliate over the attack but to behave “Christlike.”
Did anyone ask him for his opinion on whether people should be allowed to see the footage?
As we highlighted last week, the reaction to the video of the attack was almost as revolting as the incident itself.

Yet criticize Israel or Ukraine and Musk has no problem banning and censoring you.
It’s all theater….
They have always wanted to be dictatorial tyrants and have lied to conceal who they are. Now the communists are in such control that it is no longer necessary to hide who they are. It is about time for people like me to shit or get off the pot.
Jews desire an earthly kingdom, because they are blinded to the truth by their sin and idolatry. Jews only attain their worldly power by our sin and unbelief in Jesus Christ.
Make them afraid.
Safety is in the same vein as national security. When you hear either it means the globalists are attacking again.
Are all ANZAC women mentally disturbed?
I’ll bet she’s crazy in the sack.
ughh. I bet shes awkward and selfish.
Yikes, I wouldn’t trust that even if it was toothless.
Penis gumming is very serious.
The eyes tell you everything you need to know…
That’s horrifying.
She was great in The Babadook.
good tune.
Pretty obvious the Australian doesn’t know who Elon really works for…she’d understand why he’s protected and financed.
Satan wants to destroy us, before he meets his own end. He absolutely will pit his agents against each other to that end
she would put chains on individuals herself. she is as vile as she is venomous.
This seems ludicrous now. But in the future we will wonder how we ever survived without Global Governance.
Stop the Spread of Hate. By spreading more if it.
Arrest Elon Musk!
The big surprise of this is that the ‘eSafety Commissioner’ is another WEF stooge …

How dare they bag on probably the world’s most influential gatekeeper!!
When Starlink is tied in with CBDCs, and social/environmental credit scores, he should take receipts, and fuck with them – take away their “exalted” status & perks – when those are launched in the next year or two.
They do enough censoring of various content that is unapproved by the people within the organization. The whole show is a bullshit farce, not X in particular, but all the internet communication platforms that censor beyond common law understanding.
The internet was originally understood (by the public) to be a means of increasing the amount and depth of communication in the served society. To an enormous degree it has done the opposite, constricting avenues of conversation-remember newspapers, local news? More importantly it constricts allowable thought through the main communication pipelines, X being one, and one that constricts allowable thought beyond common law understanding regarding… wait for it… wait… wait just a bit longer…. publishing!!!!
Oh holy crap, a conundrum!
Trouble in River City, feral cats on the loose, the Mongols are riding in this evening, virgins to your homes, everyone brace for what’s to come.
Are you a publisher or are you not?
Decide. Stand by your decision. With your hind end, not just your legalistic mouth.
Cunt must have been coming into her period.
Prime example of why females must not have any leadership roles.
God intended they STFU-keep the body trim and ready for sex and most important……..make a proper sammitche.
Women .are children without men and men are no different without God. How then can families produce good children without God?
Must you interject kikebible happy horseshit in rational discussion ?
There are certain people who should never be given positions of power. It makes them insane.
They were insane before getting power … those who put them there knew it … they’re like hired guns in the old Westerns.
They are democrats………they want to control others.
KTA is the only solution now.
We know we are under God’s judgement, while we allow women in politics.
The so called attack was probably staged like all the rest we see on the tell lie vision. Remember the ridiculous New Zealand fake mosque shooting video ??
I think there is a senator that should be jailed for life.
