What part of “the site generates non consensual sexualised image of women and girls, and sexualised images of children” does our government feel determined to overlook?

"When the state kills first and invents the threat afterward, it is not policing, it is death squad behavior."
🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

Masked government agents are killing people in the streets, abducting people from their homes in the middle of the night, and arresting those who speak out.
If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

The thing people (and apparently the Taoiseach) somehow refuse to accept about Grok and X is that it isn’t a platform being misused or abused, it is a platform working exactly as intended by its owner. It is meant to be a racist, misogynistic, far right propaganda tool and it is

The US is collapsing as a functioning democracy. It has already lost its role as a global leader. Approaching pariah status. Beyond a rogue state.. and yet powerful vis a vis any one other state.
