Musk shut down all the kiddie-porn and pedo hash-tags in just 48 hours. That was a week ago. Story is BS.

#MAP's is down. Woke twitter did nothing about it. Children had to sue twitter to get their highly illegal pics removed, because woke twitter wouldn't do anything about it.

@#3 ... Musk shut down all the kiddie-porn and pedo hash-tags in just 48 hours. That was a week ago. Story is BS. ...

... And you don't think that new hash tags could be created and used within hours (minutes?) of the old ones being shut down?

Have you never had to fight online miscreants?

This sounds like a similar claim to Trump being a successful businessman.

How do you know? Where did you hear/read it?

#7 by who? Elon? One of his fanboys?

Because unless you were used to seeing that stuff on your feed, how do you have a clue whether or not the claim is correct? Well, beyond your confirmation bias?

Starlink is running a lot better since Elon put his focus on his new toy, Twitter.

Yep--all sorts of advertisers want to be seen in the same screen as kiddie porn, fake Covid rants and toxic 'cures', Nazis, Trump enablers, Chinese disinformation and --------- re-sellers. Yep. All sorts. Just lining up, especially after Elmo called them all up and pitched a fit to them. Yep. All coming back to TWTR 2.0, home of freedom in all its forms, appearances and odors...
