People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

There must be some way they're able to protect themselves from that.

Remember in 2008 when it was found out that banks were trading bad debts as 'good' but then It exploded in their face and caused a global recession, but the banks were 'too big to fail' so they were all bailed out by tax payers and only one guy saw any prison time, so they can claim being tough on crime?

Yeah... i dont know why they keep doing it.
