It's a pretty bad dark joke, but considering it illegal? Especially by an american company, freedom of speech and all that?
The Germans are not famous for making jokes about killing Jews, and their market: their rules.
It's not calling for violence, it's not denying the holocaust (quite the oposite), so why would it be illegal?
I’m curious if X will manage to build up the moderation tools and automation without rehiring as many moderators as they used to have. Looking at the requirements, some of those challenging - preventing fast dissemination of illegal content.
Having tried the "Added context" contributions, I think Twitter solved the moderation. It simply works. There's an abundance of free labor and it scales linearly with controversy/spread.
If Meta properties are the example of what to expect from the future locked-down internet, prepare for the internet and much more to wither on the vine and die a slow and sad death.
The EU government doesn't give a crap about unfair social media algorithms when they benefit their authoritarian agendas (at the expense of citizens) but as soon as soon as the algorithms go against their own agenda, they immediately launch a commission! And, ironically, the algorithms today are less constrained than they've ever been.

I will take the counter bet, and even go as far as saying X will remain available in EU for the next month at least.
Because X will have gone bankrupt and bust worldwide by then?
Interesting that Community Notes is mentioned, because it's by far the most reliable anti-"disinformation" mechanism I've seen. The "bluecheck" system has been absolutely wrecked, though. Even with the haphazard patching of grey and gold ticks, a bluecheck more often than not is the sign of self-promoted nonsense.

Nothing EU specific. Most (all?) European countries have a very different view on freedom of speech than the US.
"Europe 2.0" aka "the usa" has a better free speech implementation than "Europe 1.0". So yes different as in bad.

Yes, specifically that people shouldn't have it.
