The owner of X told 7.5 million people that migrants to Britain are an invading army.
Posting about immigration to Britain, Musk wrote that migrants “are invading just as surely as a conventional army would, but slow enough to avoid triggering an armed defense by Britain.” The post drew about 7.5 million views. The day before he had posted “Soon, this will happen to your town,” and the same morning that what happened to one village “will happen to all of Britain.”
Immigration policy is argued about constantly in Britain, at every volume, and almost none of it says this.
The sentence describes civilians as an army mid-invasion and then explains why nobody has shot at them yet. Once a population is an invading force, the response that fits isn't a policy. This is also the largest audience any item reached in the week, on a platform its author owns.

One item from a weekly pass over 1,034 tracked accounts. Ninety-five items crossed the line this week. Thirty-five are here: every one from a carrier we can identify, with a reach figure we can report. The other sixty are not, and the reasons are worth stating. Thirty-five sat below the tiers this page carries. Twenty-five came from anonymous imageboard accounts with no measurable reach and nobody to hold to account, and most of those were logged upstream as new slur coinages for the research codebook, which is instrument-building rather than a finding about the week. All ninety-five are in the full report.

All ninety-five confirmed items with full severity scoring, the trigger board, and the forward watchlist. This page is the plain-language cut; that one is the whole thing, including the hate methodology that defines every score here.
