Should I call it X because all that was cool about Twitter is now dead so it would make sense to stop giving that terrible social network any credit from the former one?
Or should I continue to call it Twitter because I know it will infuriate Musk that no one recognise X as his own company?
Or should I use a totally different name that everybody will understand, like say The dead bird, and kill two birds with one stone?
While the media posted by the influencer has been removed, numerous text interactions with the deleted posts from his followers are still on the platform. Some of those posts mention a child depicted in the photos as young as one and a half years old.
To make matters worse, the image appears to have been on the platform for several days before being removed. Lucre even described the image in detail in a separate tweet, noting that it had been taken from a video. The video in question involved the abuse of three children, one of whom was reportedly strangled to death after the filming.
The CSAM material was left up for FOUR DAYS (July 22-26) before he was even suspended. Then they let him "delete" it...and reinstated him. People commented during those 4 days DESCRIBING THE IMAGES.
What the FUCK please tell me this is worth a visit from the FBI, getting removed from the App Store, some massive GDPR violation, fucking something. How is this story not bigger news?
To put this in perspective, 4 graphic CSAM images that an account with 500,000 followers posted were left up on Twitter for 4 days. The person who posted the images was suspended for less than a day.
Content warning: I deliberately avoid providing much more detail than "it was clearly CSAM" but I do mention the overall tweet contents and pretext.
I remember this from when it happened and unfortunately did see the text portion and thumbnail from the original tweet.
He did it under the pretext of reporting on the arrest of a person involved in the video and large-scale CSAM production. It started as a standard news-report-style where they list the name, age and arrest details of someone taken into custody. Initially it looked like the normal alt-right tweet about "look at how paedophilia is rampant and the world is sinful!".
The guy describes himself as "chief trumpster" and a "breaker of narratives" and journalist. He claimed the details of the CSAM were provided by the Dutch police. He then described the title and detailed events of a CSAM video in the tweet. Unfortunately for me, the detailed events were below the tweet fold, so I had no idea it was going there until I expanded it.
The tweet image attachment or link unfurl thumb had a frame from the video itself. It was an otherwise-SFW image the adult abuser who was being talked about. Unfortunately I didn't realise until after I had expanded the tweet text contents what the thumbnail was. I actually thought it was an opengraph error at first.
Even in the context of "reporting shocking content" the tweet was way over the line and went from 0 to 100 in a few words. I did not need the info on the CSAM, nobody except the police and courts does. The video title alone was over the line.
Musk phrasing this as another "I was told" decision is just him knowingly deferring responsibility.
Thanks, it was partly my fault for taking a curiosity tour of Twitter to see whether there was a noticeable right-wing shift from a few months earlier.
Hopefully I can at least prevent someone from having to go try to find the context for themselves and finding the full tweet, because it was awful even as text.
I assumed there would be "they took it out of context!" apologia when it was inevitably reported on, but the actual context didn't improve anything or abdicate anyone from responsibility.
My heart goes out to the human moderators at twitter who had to see more of it and didn't have the choice to bail before learning more. And obviously also to the victims of one of the most heinous acts I've ever heard about.
For what it's worth, I had no idea if it was the absolute worst journalistic judgement I have ever seen, or a way for him to find more CSAM, or some bizarre combo. That is something for the FBI to find out. But I do know the decision to unban him is beyond wild, even for someone trying to bankrupt a social media company. Text almost never makes me physically recoil.
Yeah, even if we give them the benefit of the doubt that it was a bad attempt at journalism, there's no reason to defend them. Also bizarre that Elon would even get involved in it.
Unfortunately, it’s a term everyone should know. It “replaces” the label child porn, because while it’s universally known as horrible, it’s not “porn.” It’s evidence of child sexual abuse. Hence “child sexual abuse material.”
Remember all that nonsense the media was posting about Mastodon being a haven for illegal porn? Almost feels like a smear campaign to defame an up and coming X/Twitter competitor.
Most online platforms are susceptible to hosting CSAM and Mastodon deserves to be scrutinized and investigated for it as much as the rest. The problem with a million decentralized instances is a million different people in charge of detecting and eliminating CSAM from their platforms, and it’s going to be a challenge as this platform grows.
So I looked into this some more, he apparently posted a screenshot from a really infamous child torture video called Daisy's Destruction, it was a screenshot of the toddler actually being tortured on her foot. I had no idea this video even existed online, he claims that he got it/the screenshot from the Dutch Police. He also might have posted a naked picture of Daisy on Peter Scully's lap. He also apparently posted it on Instagram where it is still up but I don't want to check whether that's true. That is insane wtf is wrong with him
QAnon people are posting photos of child sexual assaults “to raise awareness” because they’re too fucking stupid to realize that’s still insanely illegal and you don’t get to rob banks to raise awareness of bank robbers. (Or they’re just pedophiles trying to share images via a loophole that doesn’t exist.)
One prominent conservative guy got flagged by Twitter and had his account suspended. Elon claims only a few employees saw the image but that turned out to be a lie. It was up for 4 days and had something like 8000+ RTs and 1.3 million views. Elon basically intervened and unsuspended the guy’s account.
Also, if you’d like additional context, [insert photo of Musk with Gislaine Maxwell].
I know when pedophiles tried to normalise pedophilia on Twitter by associating themselves with the LGBT community or by coming up with that nomap bullshit. I would assume they are just that. Pedos.
Also, it is widely known that pedos project like motherfuckers. That teenage billionaire sure threw those accusations around a lot.
Or is it because they think they are being clever and think that they can get away with it as long as they are yelling loudly enough about how much it disgusts them.
Maybe after a few too wrong moves, he's trying to tank the company and make people think he's doing it on purpose so he could say that all this time he's been doing it on purpose. On purpose on purpose.
I believe that all of these major players are being controlled at almost gunpoint into destroying their platforms and making horrible business decisions (facebook, twitter, youtube, etc).
I'd also add that a defense of ignorance becomes harder to attribute his moves to when he is surrounded by people who inform him. Choosing not to listen to them seems malicious.
At this point they could have but a giant brown bear in charge of twitter. Gave it free reigns to eat whoever it likes and twitter would still be more successful and have a less damaged brand. Like is Elon actively trying to run it into the ground?
I don't think he is. See, he's lived his entire life in a world without consequences, and he's never actually been a good businessman, and certainly never invented anything. But he's built his own little brand around pretending he's both and not a con man who was scamming carbon credits to boost the stock price of his flagship company.
At some point, he started to believe his own branding. After all, he must be a good businessman if he's the richest man in the world, right?
As a note, Bernie Madoff had a net worth of almost $70 Billion at his peak. He was one of the richest men in the world.
I think you misread my tone. As I said at the start, "in case.. you want to use the phrase some other place where it matters." That kind of innocent error can impact one's success when at work or in an essay.
Just one, one drop in a sea of lunacy and megalomania. But that’s Elon. Now if this guy took over a company that directly impacted your profits, what would you do?
The real sad thing is that even if he is the Yahoo to Tumblr, it won’t impact him one iota. He’ll still be rich as all creation and people will still fawn over him and listen to what he has to say.
Because Elon musk (as well as everyone in positions of power) are all pedos. Every single one of them. These are the fuckwads that hang out of Epsteins island.
It’s also why nothing is being done about it because everyone that’s in a position to do anything about it is also a pedo and they don’t want to disrupt their pedo experiences.
That’s all the uber wealthy are into. They use their power and influence to get away with it my corrupting everyone around them.
Did you wake up today, and think, "Hey, these pedophiles are unfairly getting mislabeled. I'm going to go defend their preferred nomenclature on the internet today?"
Fucking someone under the age of 18 makes you a pedophile. End of story. You're arguing semantics like fucking a 17 year old isn't that bad, or at least that's how you come off. I appreciate your work but that's just not a distinction anyone cares to make. A pedo is a pedo.
It comes from reddits "black people twitter" "white people twitter" and "bikini bottom twitter", on twitter people call different sub genres of twitter "x people twitter"
White people twitter is just kinda bland takes
That's not the actual context. There are screenshots of people who replied to the deleted images...describing the images. I saw those actual replies and friends saw the images and yes, reported them to the FBI.
The account has 500,000 followers and the pics were up for 4 days before he was suspended. I assure you, there were many comments about the images.
The photo on the right is an image from the video that was sent. It is the one year old named Daisy. She was one of the babies that was rescued thankfully.
Not even supporting him, I heard about him for the first time today. So reading what other people say it seems he added a thumbnail which is sfw but from a very nasty video in his "news posting".
I don't want to spend any more time looking up this sickening shit but it seems the tweet he screenshotted was not the one he was banned for (surprise!). He also posted screencaps of a CP video related to the case. Fuck this asshole, his followers and twitter as a whole.
edit: ok, I stopped at "but well" but I didn't know it'd get this much hate, my bad.
All I wanted to say is that the guy shared a news article about an incident in the Philippines. In his replies, he also posted photos from a video related to the article. I don't like it when I see Twitter screenshots in which the user changes the words to fit their claims. The post was subject to CSAM concerns along with the photos. So, it's not explicitly "CP", but it still violates the platform's rules, and the guy should have remained suspended.
Even if it was a news article, any half brained editor is going to know you don't post CP because it's illegal and you get the FBI breaking down your door and throwing you in a federal prison.
yea ik and I agree, he should've stayed suspended, he could've just wrote about it instead of sharing whatever he found. I just don't like when the words changes from post to post or contexts are omitted when sharing.
i realized my original comment is also missing a lot about what i wanted to say, but i got burned real quick lol.
no I'm not denying it, just gave abit more context. Apparently it was a news article the post itself was also subject of the suspension and then there was the CSAM photos, not cp, but still worth getting banned for
Oh sorry, I'm maybe cofusing CSAM with something else, also I thought CP is when the act of sexual assault is explicitly shown in the said material, not just when the victim is shown in the crime location, like for example a photo that police or reporter might have taken from the crime scene and the victim
Murder and homocide are not the same thing where the terminology was changed from one to the other. Murder is only one type of homicide, there are others. CSAM is CP, literally the same thing.
Pretending they aren't and continuing to argue about it is defending it. Feel free to stop any time.
Thanks for the clarification.
It would've been also good if you could leave it at the explanation and not accusing me of more things. I genuinely didn't know.
But I guess it's social media after all, internet points worth more.
Lol obviously, brainfart on my behalf. Is there a word for those kinds of sarcastic (for lack of a better word) quotes where it's not just quoted, but implied to cast doubt on the original text/quote?
I mean, no, you were right. That's where in spoken conversation you would use air quotes, so it seems correct to use the term this way online too. Maybe writing "virtual air quotes" would help people who don't understand that this is a text conversation, not literal speech?
lol, I'm not doing that to defend anyone. It's just to not accept every word comes out from that braindead bird app. correct word for what happened is CSAM not CP
hmm, like how? I don't know the guy, It's just what I gathered from both sides, those who cheered for the suspension and those who were against the suspension.
Guy shoots down Elon's brainless submarine rescue idea
Musk: What a pedo guy!
Guy posts actual CP to Twitter (sorry, I'm not gonna call it X)
Musk: This is fine.
I have mixed feelings about this one.
Should I call it X because all that was cool about Twitter is now dead so it would make sense to stop giving that terrible social network any credit from the former one?
Or should I continue to call it Twitter because I know it will infuriate Musk that no one recognise X as his own company?
Or should I use a totally different name that everybody will understand, like say The dead bird, and kill two birds with one stone?
Nah, Musk has been trying to co-opt the 24th letter of the alphabet for 30 years, he's a wannabe Steve Jobs and he wants his own one letter legacy.
The only thing the rebranding has done is make Twitter an X-platform (pun intended).
The Social Media Site Formerly Known As Twitter
TSMSFKAT
Rolls right of the tongue
Tiss-Miss-Fah-Kat
The ex parrot
It's just pining for the fjords
Indeed.
I had it in mind TBH
But “bird site” doesn’t sound as bad as “dead bird”
Calling it Twitter is a reminder that the product/site used to be pretty interesting instead of a broken right wing child sex abuse platform
Do what Elon does with his kid. Dead name it to annoy Elon. Also shame on him for dead naming and misgendering his own child.
Twatter?
you wouldn't really be killing 2 birds with 1 stone. You'd be beating a dead bird with the stone, though
Don't forget Musk roleplays as a baby with multiple sub accounts.
Dude is a creeeeeeeeeep
Roleplay?... "Sub"-accounts?... And here I thought he only was shitposting on main.
Wait, multiple? I “only” knew about Elon Test, there’s more?
If he tried to hide one, he definitely has a bunch.
Pretty sure it’s “wow, that was S3XY! We’ll leave your account open so you can send me some more”.
Why be sorry?
Probably Canadian
Little known fact: You can be sorry without being Canadian.
Sorry
I didn't realize that, sorry
As a Canadian, I just wanted to pop in and say I'm sorry
S O R E Y
Non-Canadians are just noticeably less likely to tell someone.
Call it ten
Ooooooh...
Actually, it could turn out pretty well for the dead bird so I won't
Ten gonna give it to ya!

Thank you for the additional context. I’m sorry you had to be exposed to that.

Thank for this. Seeing this explained this whole thing makes much more sense. Not in a good way, but I now understand. Edit: fixed typo
For what it's worth, I had no idea if it was the absolute worst journalistic judgement I have ever seen, or a way for him to find more CSAM, or some bizarre combo. That is something for the FBI to find out. But I do know the decision to unban him is beyond wild, even for someone trying to bankrupt a social media company.

Yeah, even if we give them the benefit of the doubt that it was a bad attempt at journalism, there's no reason to defend them. Also bizarre that Elon would even get involved in it.
Do I want to know what CSAM stands for?
Child sexual assault material, unfortunately.
Yep. Didn’t want to know that.
Unfortunately, it’s a term everyone should know. It “replaces” the label child porn, because while it’s universally known as horrible, it’s not “porn.” It’s evidence of child sexual abuse. Hence “child sexual abuse material.”
Right. Porn implies acting and consent.
I didn't use the term porn at all...
You spent half your response "correcting" me for use of the the term porn, which I did not use. Respond to the OP for that. That's all I'm saying.
Is it pernounced KaZAM! ?
Because it was one image and it wasn't showing anything explicit. That's how I understood it from reading more about this story.
Dude, he posted it to highlight how evil it is. Maybe it was a stupid thing to do but that's the extent of it.
You're evil
Remember all that nonsense the media was posting about Mastodon being a haven for illegal porn? Almost feels like a smear campaign to defame an up and coming X/Twitter competitor.
Most online platforms are susceptible to hosting CSAM and Mastodon deserves to be scrutinized and investigated for it as much as the rest. The problem with a million decentralized instances is a million different people in charge of detecting and eliminating CSAM from their platforms, and it’s going to be a challenge as this platform grows.
Facebook has the most csam of any website, but I hardly ever see the same fear mongering from the media. Odd.
Facebook is ubiquitous now and is therefore beyond reproach. It exceeds the scope of everything.
You hear about Meta cracking down on csam in the media but not Twitter. Odd.
likely because it's not happening on twitter, as evidenced by the post
Bingo. Meta, for it's horribleness, at least makes an effort to be less horrible. Elon... Doubles down on the horrible.
John Mastadon would have removed the app in a heartbeat.
Context?!
Why isn’t any of this surprising?
No, you see it isn't illegal if you are conservative.
Yup, conservatives are Good Guys so their deeds are Good.
So I looked into this some more, he apparently posted a screenshot from a really infamous child torture video called Daisy's Destruction, it was a screenshot of the toddler actually being tortured on her foot.

Well this took me down a Wikipedia rabbit hole I really shouldn't have fallen
I have morbid curiosity but I won't be touching that. The short description alone is already too much.
That is wise. Don't even look up the name of the guy.
My life is worse off for having read this comment. It's needs a spolier alert or something. I'm just sick.
Reinstated so that the FBI can investigate I hope ...
Reinstated because it's a Republican account I suspect ...
This is the worse timeline.
Shoulda made a hard left back in 2015
Preach
“people who claim to be religious fanatics are pedos” isn’t a new thing.
A tale as old as time
okay, they're psycho rapists.
Wtf !!
Actual CP
In a place where a piece of text can incorporate, a drawing has human* rights.
(*not applicable to actual humans)
Your ignorance doesn't excuse your language.
Ask politely and you might learn which country meets what I said.
That's not really the context. Need to see what that tweet (if it's even real) is responding to.
QAnon people are posting photos of child sexual assaults “to raise awareness” because they’re too fucking stupid to realize that’s still insanely illegal and you don’t get to rob banks to raise awareness of bank robbers. (Or they’re just pedophiles trying to share images via a loophole that doesn’t exist.)
One prominent conservative guy got flagged by Twitter and had his account suspended. Elon claims only a few employees saw the image but that turned out to be a lie.

Also, if you’d like additional context, [insert photo of Musk with Gislaine Maxwell].
Additional context:
Why does yout comment say "Blocked by an instance filter for feddit.de"
You most likely blocked the instance feddit.de
Here, a discussion about this
Thanks
Don't block the whole instance, just the non English communities if you want
I know when pedophiles tried to normalise pedophilia on Twitter by associating themselves with the LGBT community or by coming up with that nomap bullshit. I would assume they are just that. Pedos.
Also, it is widely known that pedos project like motherfuckers. That teenage billionaire sure threw those accusations around a lot.
Well to be fair his father is a well-known groomer and pedophile.
Say sike right now.
Please.
Or is it because they think they are being clever and think that they can get away with it as long as they are yelling loudly enough about how much it disgusts them.
conteXt?
The Brand X social media site living up to its name.
Reminder: Musk himself has an alt account where he ERPs as a toddler
Not just just any toddler. His own kid
I am scared to ask but at the same time I have a need to substantiate claims... So regretfully. Source?
If you search "elon musk roleplay son" you can find several screenshots and news sites reporting on it.
Here's one
Note: while OP says "ERP", it's not really erotic (apart from wishing to go to night clubs). Still creepy as F
I had to figure out what ERP meant in this context because I was just picturing some poor kid trying to use SAP.
Thanks for not sharing what you learned lol
I think it's meant to be role play of an erotic nature.
"Why does nobody want to advertise on my site anymore?"
It's like literally everything he's done is to deliberately tank the company and lose billions of dollars.
Almost like it's on purpose...
Maybe after a few too wrong moves, he's trying to tank the company and make people think he's doing it on purpose so he could say that all this time he's been doing it on purpose. On purpose on purpose.
or he's actually just sabotaging one of the largest western social networks through weaponizing his gross incompetence
I believe that all of these major players are being controlled at almost gunpoint into destroying their platforms and making horrible business decisions (facebook, twitter, youtube, etc).
They overextended in an era of easy money. Belts tighten and they still want to hit their growth targets, so they take away some sesame seeds.
I think people are realizing they don't really like the burger as much as they used to.
"I'm so great, I can bankrupt a multibillion dollar company and lose tens of billions of dollars of my own money!"
Weird flex, but ok
Don't attribute to malice what can easily be attributed to ignorance
True, but I don't think one prohibits the other.
I'd also add that a defense of ignorance becomes harder to attribute his moves to when he is surrounded by people who inform him. Choosing not to listen to them seems malicious.
At this point they could have but a giant brown bear in charge of twitter. Gave it free reigns to eat whoever it likes and twitter would still be more successful and have a less damaged brand. Like is Elon actively trying to run it into the ground?
I don't think he is. See, he's lived his entire life in a world without consequences, and he's never actually been a good businessman, and certainly never invented anything.

Given the other typos, this might just be another, but in case it's an error and you might want to use the phrase some other place where it matters:
It's "give it free rein" like a horse you're letting choose its own path and pace, rather than a monarch who would "reign."
You could let a bear reign over all Musk's properties with better results than he's having, but it would be a different sentence.
Both reign and rein can be nouns or verbs:
The Fed is trying to "rein in" inflation.
The "reign" of King Charles the Turd has barely begun.
(Sorry, my inner schoolmarm slipping out.)
You sound insufferable. You went on a multi paragraph rant to correct a strangers spelling on the internet. Wow.
stranger's
I think you misread my tone. As I said at the start, "in case.. you want to use the phrase some other place where it matters." That kind of innocent error can impact one's success when at work or in an essay.
What essay? We’re on lemmy bro. There is no work here
Yes, that's exactly what he's trying to do. The sooner he runs it into the ground, the less money he's going to lose.

I think any smart run company left Twitter the moment Elon took over (in his own eclectic way carrying a kitchen sink).
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/17/tesla-elon-musk-thailand-diver-pedo
Just one, one drop in a sea of lunacy and megalomania. But that’s Elon. Now if this guy took over a company that directly impacted your profits, what would you do?
The real sad thing is that even if he is the Yahoo to Tumblr, it won’t impact him one iota. He’ll still be rich as all creation and people will still fawn over him and listen to what he has to say.
It doesn’t really matter, but wasn’t it a bathroom sink?
It was.
Ehhh I'm reading some very amusing speculation about his finances.
I swear, I thought it was a joke until I actually saw his tweet on the platform
Terrible decision from Elon.
At least he's consistent
Wow, elon. Just... wow!
.... welp Twitter is dead
Because Elon musk (as well as everyone in positions of power) are all pedos. Every single one of them. These are the fuckwads that hang out of Epsteins island.

'Pedophiles control the world' sounds just as far-fetched as 'jews control the world'.
Hitler reading your comment while tweaking would probably make some deductions that he'd like to share in his next meth fueled speech.
There is no mistake. Elon is a pedophile. In other words he has sex with children. Is that clear enough for you?
Did you wake up today, and think, "Hey, these pedophiles are unfairly getting mislabeled. I'm going to go defend their preferred nomenclature on the internet today?"
Fucking someone under the age of 18 makes you a pedophile. End of story. You're arguing semantics like fucking a 17 year old isn't that bad, or at least that's how you come off. I appreciate your work but that's just not a distinction anyone cares to make. A pedo is a pedo.
You sound like an Elon simp
Do you have the original x link of this post, since I'm having trouble finding it on his account
Stop saying "x link" like that's actually a thing
Whats X? I only know twitter links
Twitters dead, stop using the brand name.
I ain't white, but isn't this community name (not the community) kinda racist
It comes from reddits "black people twitter" "white people twitter" and "bikini bottom twitter", on twitter people call different sub genres of twitter "x people twitter" White people twitter is just kinda bland takes
Now it's all "x people x"... 🤡
Hey, at least you don't have to post a picture of your skin color to post here, like on reddit's BlackPeopleTwitter.
That's not the actual context. There are screenshots of people who replied to the deleted images...describing the images. I saw those actual replies and friends saw the images and yes, reported them to the FBI.
The account has 500,000 followers and the pics were up for 4 days before he was suspended. I assure you, there were many comments about the images.
Oh look - the comments are still there: https://twitter.com/dom_lucre/status/1682888030552735744
And if that doesn't work, here is OP describing one himself in a reply: https://web.archive.org/web/20230727054139/https://twitter.com/dom_lucre/status/1682888030552735744

I can see what kind of media rings true to you. No need to bring that here. You're supporting a conspiracy nutter.
@[email protected] posted sources disproving your narrative. People should ctl-f / cmd-f to get those links.
Not even supporting him, I heard about him for the first time today. So reading what other people say it seems he added a thumbnail which is sfw but from a very nasty video in his "news posting".
u/Umbra is posting bs propaganda.
Dude's in every thread defending nasty shit.
That's not true
I don't want to spend any more time looking up this sickening shit but it seems the tweet he screenshotted was not the one he was banned for (surprise!). He also posted screencaps of a CP video related to the case. Fuck this asshole, his followers and twitter as a whole.
Yeah, the screencaps are the problem here. They were not explicit although their context would still cause upset.
the "CP" was a news article, but well...
edit: ok, I stopped at "but well" but I didn't know it'd get this much hate, my bad. All I wanted to say is that the guy shared a news article about an incident in the Philippines. In his replies, he also posted photos from a video related to the article. I don't like it when I see Twitter screenshots in which the user changes the words to fit their claims. The post was subject to CSAM concerns along with the photos. So, it's not explicitly "CP", but it still violates the platform's rules, and the guy should have remained suspended.
Think for a second. Why would he be specifically mentioning "those photos" if it was a news article?
That's asking a lot
Even if it was a news article, any half brained editor is going to know you don't post CP because it's illegal and you get the FBI breaking down your door and throwing you in a federal prison.
yea ik and I agree, he should've stayed suspended, he could've just wrote about it instead of sharing whatever he found. I just don't like when the words changes from post to post or contexts are omitted when sharing.
i realized my original comment is also missing a lot about what i wanted to say, but i got burned real quick lol.
no I'm not denying it, just gave abit more context. Apparently it was a news article the post itself was also subject of the suspension and then there was the CSAM photos, not cp, but still worth getting banned for
Those are the same thing. Child sexual abuse material is just a newer/better term for child porn as calling it porn is problematic.
You aren't adding any context, you're (hopefully unintentionally) defending cp.
Oh sorry, I'm maybe cofusing CSAM with something else, also I thought CP is when the act of sexual assault is explicitly shown in the said material, not just when the victim is shown in the crime location, like for example a photo that police or reporter might have taken from the crime scene and the victim
but if it's the same thing how am i defending it, I don't quite get it
idk, if i call murder a homicide, am i defending murder?
i'm not a native English speaker so I'd glad to know about these English synonyms
Murder and homocide are not the same thing where the terminology was changed from one to the other. Murder is only one type of homicide, there are others. CSAM is CP, literally the same thing.
Pretending they aren't and continuing to argue about it is defending it. Feel free to stop any time.
Thanks for the clarification. It would've been also good if you could leave it at the explanation and not accusing me of more things. I genuinely didn't know. But I guess it's social media after all, internet points worth more.
Look at you telling on yourself putting "it" in "air quotes" and all.
Those are just quotation marks. Air quotes are when you use your fingers to form quotation marks in the air.
Lol obviously, brainfart on my behalf. Is there a word for those kinds of sarcastic (for lack of a better word) quotes where it's not just quoted, but implied to cast doubt on the original text/quote?
Scare quotes.
That's it! Thanks
I mean, no, you were right. That's where in spoken conversation you would use air quotes, so it seems correct to use the term this way online too. Maybe writing "virtual air quotes" would help people who don't understand that this is a text conversation, not literal speech?
Lol yeah I thought it was overly pedantic but 🤷
See, I knew I was smaht!
i mean it's still correct, i got what he meant lol
lol, I'm not doing that to defend anyone. It's just to not accept every word comes out from that braindead bird app. correct word for what happened is CSAM not CP
Did you look into this at all? At all?
hmm, like how? I don't know the guy, It's just what I gathered from both sides, those who cheered for the suspension and those who were against the suspension.
