If you can’t enable drug trafficking and child abuse, can you even call it freedom?

First, do you actually believe this is actually why they’re going after him? I don’t think anyone would have an issue if this is where it would end but my spidey sense does not think that’s actually why they’re doing this

CSAM on Telegram has been a known issue for a long time.

Yes, it does believe it. Fully, completely.

The people that the Establishment are trying to arrest or assassinate are likely the people that need to be supported…

 

Notice how they go after these guys with the same charges…

 

Now, I don’t know if this guy is guilty or not, but why aren’t we hearing about Diddy anymore? 🤔

So you guys are defending CSAM here?

 

Mad that freedom of speech doesn’t include allowing people to post child porn?

 

Just curious when we arrest the post office general and every telephone carrier that has "allowed" the same thing for decades.

When they knowingly facilitate it and refuse to stop.

Nobody is denying that. Literally nobody


Well then, there should be zero issue. 
 

Prosecuting someone for knowingly facilitating CSAM because they are knowingly facilitating CSAM and refuse to do anything about it changes nothing in terms of precedent for free speech. 
 

If they make the same attempt against someone who isn’t knowingly facilitating CSAM, then this case won’t serve as useful precedent.

PRO TIP: If you ever find yourself defending child porn:

1. Don’t

2. Take a moment to re-evaluate your life choices and what lead you to this point


Don’t make me tap the sign

“First they came for the purveyors of child porn and I… immediately spoke out against it because the internet has pickled my brain.”

 

-People who have very recently been claiming to be anti-groomer

I was on Mastodon about 4 days in 2018 I think and even I could see that a large number of posts were geared towards PEDOs and left for good. The EU was not bothered by that and I doubt it is right now. I have never been on  Telegram but I doubt that the shut down is primarily based on child exploitation, but I will accept future information as it comes in with an open mind. Stomping out child exploitation should be a major focus of all good people, but right now there is no good evidence anyone is willing to do the hard work to make it happen.

Conservatives and Classical Liberals defending free speech, yet again, while modern day Democrats (and their counterparts around the western world) defend another assault on free speech.
