      I don’t believe them.  My opinion is they want folks afraid to speak out against the mainstream.

       

      UK police told to stop wasting time over people being offended by tweets

      #277711

      A certain class of people wants to be a victim, and if they can be offended by a tweet (and get monetary benefit from it), those snowflakes will continue to harass and abuse police resources.

      And those that want to censor others will NOT stop till only their views/opinions are allowed.

      Those nazi/marxist/communists won’t stop till all is under their heels.

      So until they make it a crime (and one that is prosecuted) for wasting police resources, they will continue to harass the police.

      And I do think police resources are better spent/used elsewhere than wasted on morons being offended by tweets/life.

        You know I did not think about it that way.  I assumed it was the police chasing these folks on their own but I could see people abusing that method if it were made available.  Although at the same time I do believe some of the local forces had tweeted how they were watching for offensive tweets but I don’t live in the UK so hard to gauge from afar.

        It’s not been unheard of over here for the last couple of years. Fortunately most of us are laughing at the stupidity of it all and just want the police to deal with actual crime than people being “hurt” by a “mean tweet”.

        Methinks this is a way for the police (and by extension their “Masters”) to:

        a. Show the public they’re doing something because when it comes to “true crime” one can argue that they’ve all but lost control.

        b. Acclimatize the population to censorship on IMPORTANT issues such as commenting on the real crime situation. We’ve already seen in the places like New York and California a reluctance to prosecute certain types of criminals. Silencing victims would only allow them to further their agenda.

        What agenda? Well, if crime gets totally out of control the only solution would be a total lockdown, implementing Martial Law.

        Covid/Monkey Pox my arse. Think of the level of power those in authority would usurp, all under the guise of safeguarding the population.

        Then again, I may be watching too many dystopian movies…

        You’re not the only one thinking along those lines; was watching ‘The Hunger Games: Catching Fire’ the other week…and I hadn’t realised until now how close we seem to be getting to something like that in real life. Scary stuff to think about😳

        Another interesting vid about this sort of thing:

          If I put on my thinking into the future hat, where I try to see the chess pieces moves ahead I see this.

          EVERYTHING being done now is coordinated at multiple levels.  Although, I have no doubt many in the mid levels of power are just getting theirs and they don’t care what they are told to do, hand them the cash and they will say it or do it.

          So where is this all going?

          1) farmers and others will lose their properties due to regulation and pricing (think Blackrock buying all the properties so that no one can own a home)

          2) “mega cities” will be built one by one on this newly “acquired” land in different countries

          3) at first you won’t be forced to move into one, they will just make things so bad and expensive to live it will become attractive to do so

          4) anyone not voluntarily living in a mega city trying to escape violent crime and insane costs of living will be forced too

          5) now everyone lives in a pod, eats the bugs and has to obey their new overlords because if you don’t you get kicked out into the wasteland

           

          So we end up with a combination of Judge Dredd and Demolition Man.

          “You will own nothing and be happy”

          I am not making this up.
