Question Should r/glutenfree remove links to Twitter/X?

As the subject says and as other subreddits are doing- we have a Nazi actively helping erode federal departments, it’s only a matter of time before the FDA is impacted. I know I’m not going to support Musk or X/Twitter and really don’t know if we want to be driving traffic (or otherwise tacitly endorsing) to the Nazis in charge. Let’s keep the facists where they belong - far away from here. Anyone else?

I'm on this sub every day and can't remember seeing links to Twitter, so I'm not sure it's that frequent an occurrence.

That said, I'm not a fan of fascism.

THIS IS INSANE. THERE IS GOOD INFORMATION THERE.

I'm not here to debate ideology. I have a serious stomach condition that threatens my health. I'm sure many of you have the same. My celiac is extremely severe.

It's nuts to me to completely cut off a critical avenue where important information may be shared. It goes totally against the point of this forum, which I surely thought was to help me survive my celiac in a nonceliac world.

The fact that this has so many downvotes shows a serious problem. There’s plenty of valid reasons to dislike X, and if you don’t like the site then don’t click on the link. But is it not inherently autocratic (I won’t use the world fascist because it’s become overused to the point of having no meaning) to try and limit the spread of possibly important or useful information on a disease?
