The account certification system previously provided a certain guarantee of the veracity of the information relayed. Now anyone can get certified. This change marked the beginning of the total deregulation of the platform, transforming X into an ecosystem dedicated to the proliferation of toxic content. This phenomenon has been greatly amplified by its algorithm aimed, under the cover of freedom of expression, at massively propagating a radicalized and totalitarian ideology.
This trend has seen rapid growth in recent weeks, where X has become a real strategic weapon. A platform now increasingly used to amplify hateful and polarizing speech, thus playing a key role in the manipulation of public opinion.
Red Star FC's commitment extends well beyond the borders of X, and the club will continue to operate in spaces that respect our values. The club's X account will no longer be used, except to prevent the risk of identity theft. Content from the last 15 years will remain online as an archive.

Red Star FC withdraws from social platform X
Over the last few months, Red Star has observed X’s transformation from a forum for debate to a platform that has become an exponential and uninterrupted catalyst for hatred. The club does not wish to follow this trend.
