This report is an investigation into X’s contribution to harms suffered by the LGBTI community in Poland between 2019 and 2025. It reveals the toll that X’s engagement-based business model has taken on LGBTI individuals, and particularly those targeted with hate on the platform. It shows that, despite the company’s proclaimed desire to protect freedom of expression, online abuse on X has contributed to the LGBTI community in Poland living in fear of being their true selves – both online and offline.
