    Absolutely vile. As someone with two kids on your profile, why would you think this was funny?

    I like dark humour mate but this forum isn't a place for it - especially as something dark as that i think

    The McCanns were clearly feckless parents but they don't deserve to have the memory of their child used in such a crass and vile manner.

    It's from 3 years ago - which isn't any defence like, but I think the blue tick rules were different then

    Ahh, I thought it was to do with Mr Musk's allowance of a blue tick if you fork out for one.
    Like you say, either way that's a disgrace. Don't expect anything better from twitterX to be honest.

    He’s posted a lot of stuff on here that i’d be embarrassed to put my own photo to, but having his kids as his picture and posting the stuff he does is just pathetic.

    They buy them I believe, just more money in Musk's pocket while the whole platform literally runs lawless.

    Awful

    Right. I thought it was vile. I wasn't laughing. So all of the bed-wetters even so much as mentioning my children had better not ever let me catch them doing that to my face. Have a go at me and my views by all means, but do not EVER bring my children into this.

    I saw it on X, TONIGHT, not three years ago. It's obviously been recirculated. I thought it was vile.

    P.S - these other embarrassing views of mine, what are they? If they're anything to do with COVID, I suggest you have a look at the not-so-well-publicised articles alluding to the fact that the vaccines have in fact caused more harm than they've solved.

    Sorry everyone, clearly my face doesn't fit. And it looks like the usual holier than thou clique have jumped on an infrequent poster, as is the norm for this board.

    If you thought it was vile. I assume you found it extremely offensive. ( not near the bone) Then why post it. ?
    Admin should remove it. If you dont yourself. Easy to edit out. I'm.(along with many others) far from holier than thou. But there are limits.

    It was long before Musk bought it, mate. Twitter has always been a cesspool. As much as we say its got worse, its always been the same. Anonymous users saying what they like.

    Why not? Do people never post anything on here that they themselves find to be in bad taste?

    I've seen countless posts referencing Joey Barton and his vile views on here.

    Go clutch your pearls elsewhere if you're that offended. Didn't like the post? Scroll on, it's not for you then is it?

    Another pearl-clutcher.

    Why should it be removed? Is it illegal? Is it referencing abuse or violence? Is it promoting guns, drugs or anything like that?

    Nope, it's just something that you don't like. That's not really how it works.

    You're allowed to not look at it, did you know? Not everything that you find offensive needs to be eradicated from existence, you aren't God.

    I honestly can't believe the sheer hysteria over a tweet. I don't like it either, but you're coming for me like I'm the one who created it!

    Someone has created the name and profile of a kidnapped and more than likely dead child.

    That's my first issue.

    OK.... And what has that got to do with me? I didn't tweet it. As I say, if you're that offended, go and find out who is impersonating this child and have a go at them.

    The problem with your post is that you’ve posted it with no comment, leaving people to draw their own meaning. It really shouldn’t be a surprise to you that people reacted to it. You’ve had your right to reply now, so I’m locking the thread.
