Tschüss, X!
Zu antidemokratisch, verschwörungstheoretisch und wissenschaftsfeindlich: Die RWTH wird ihre Aktivitäten auf der Plattform X einstellen, da diese nicht ausreichend gegen Hate Speech, Hass gegen Minderheiten, Verschwörungstheorien und rechtsextreme Meinungsäußerungen – kurz: gegen die Radikalisierung – vorgeht. Auf unseren anderen Social- Media-Kanälen (Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Threads und Facebook) werden wir weiterhin informieren.

Goodbye, X!
Due to the promotion of anti-democratic, anti-scientific content and conspiracy theories on the platform X, RWTH Aachen University is going to discontinue its activities on it. The platform is not sufficiently addressing hate speech, hatred against minorities, conspiracy theories, and right-wing extremist opinions – in short, it is not doing enough to combat radicalization. We will continue to provide information on our other social media channels (Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Threads and Facebook).
