Also rather than cover up what’s been posted on social media the news should actually state what was said. That way more and more people will be disgusted and demand stronger changes to the law. CNN actually showed stills of the tweets this afternoon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean they can say what they want to people and not have any consequences. People were also saying wearing masks impinged on their free speech.

Burnsie Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Surely it should just take Messi or Ronaldo or an equally big sports star to phone each other up and say, let's quit Twitter for X of time. Enough do it, Twitter will react. The problem is, no one appears to have the balls to do it... probably cos it will cost them money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you're right, they just need sufficient numbers to follow suit You even had Curtis Woodhouse posting a rant about nobody following Henry's lead and deleting their Twitter account, because they were all more bothered about money. Unfortunately, he posted this rant... on his Twitter account... then quickly deleted it when the hypocrisy was pointed out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morganowl Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 just slightly off topic , i doubt those sickos posting the poo they do has anything to do with racism , they would abuse anything what moves if they thought it could hurt someone ,just nasty pieces of work . i meet a lot of people in life through various ways and i cant say ive ever met or spoken to anyone under 50 who has a racist bone , though if you talk to some in there 70s to 90s you do still come across those with those views sadly.

It has nothing to do which actual speech. Lot of people don't understand that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
