Social Media and Anglo-American Tensions
This chapter examines the strained relationship between the UK government and Twitter in the wake of the Southport riots, with a focus on how these tensions could affect Anglo-American relations, particularly in light of potential Donald Trump election outcomes. It highlights the broader implications of political warfare, censorship, and foreign influence in the context of social media's role in modern democracy. Additionally, the discussion critiques the paranoia surrounding foreign meddling, arguing that local political actions and misinformation may actually present more significant risks to diplomatic relations.
