Some of these flag shaggers did the same up here in Scotland but with the St Andrews flag. Unfortunately for them, that flag is associated with the independence movement, not racism, so they haven’t managed to portray the message they’re after.

Most councils responded with “we’re not going to explicitly go out to take them down but they’ll be removed during routine maintenance”. So now, instead of a racist dog whistle we have free independence decorations!

Useful idiots.

Also, these dumb fucks wouldn’t know patriotism if it shat in their mouth. Patriotism is helping your neighbour, your community, your country. Improving living conditions in this country, making life worth living here. Not being angry at foreigners and putting up a piece of cloth. If they genuinely cared they’d read a fucking book and learn how to make this country better, but they just want to be angry and validated for it. Pricks.

But Twitter doesn’t and didn’t fly under the radar. Every politician and journalist and average Joe knows about it. It’s been headline news for days.

They’re taking their sweet time because Musk has power. He has vast amounts of money (richest man in the world, rivaling some countries), he has very close ties with Trump and the American government, and controls other services which the UK has contracts with (e.g. Starlink). Not because that’s how Ofcom works. Ofcom can and has responded quickly to laws in the past. What sort of bullshit paedo apoligism is that argument?

You’re making excuses for CSAM distributed by the richest man in the world, why?

The rule of law is not being applied the same to Twitter as it would any other website. My quote stands.

Flying under the radar is not the same as being known and ignored. Flying under the radar explicitly means it’s unknown. If the state were made aware of these sites they would act.

Oooh, big scary threats! What have they done though?

Do you think piefed.social or Feddit.UK would be up long if they were doing the same thing? They would be immediately blocked and the admins arrested. No such thing has happened to Twitter.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

We are ruled by Red Conservatives.

Such online safety that when a website almost every politician and journalist is on has publicly visible CSAM, fuck all is done about it.

Algorithms based on up/downvotes, comments, and time that are open source and visible are not the same as closed source algorithms attempting to increase engagement for shareholder profit, and you know it. Trying to conflate the two is disingenuous.
