        The best was that they threaten if twitter does nothing about it they are going to close it down, and the whole tracing part, they can't even use spell checker before releasing a statement but they are going to trace these right wing whities :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

          TBH, I wish them the best of luck with that project. They come off like the idiot trolls in US newsgroups, who threaten you with the FBI if you disagree with them (I'd dearly love the FBI to come knocking at my door, so I could tell them what to spin on). But it's slightly worrying that these are people who are molding the minds and beliefs of children. If political will were to go against them, we'd likely end up with a new spate of suicide bombing.

            Are you referring to the freedom of speech definition of the US constitution, or Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of the United Nations General Assembly?

              I think freedom of opinion and expression (I assume that's the one you mean; I can't be bothered to Google it) pretty well covers declaring that you think someone is an idiot. Mind you, there's also an article that states that discrimination (against stupid people, in this case) is accountable to law, and another that says that attacking someone's reputation is also accountable to law (I don't remember the article numbers for those, either, because I was laughing so hard when I read the document that details like that couldn't stick). In fact, the "Universal Declaration" is every bit as foolish as the US Constitution -- "Universal" appears to mean precisely what it says, in that absolutely everything is allowed, but absolutely everything is not allowed, at the same time. These grand documents appear to be designed for one purpose only: To make money for lawyers, who will happily argue both sides until the fall of Armageddon.

                (I asked because the US constitution of a significantly lesser scope.) Even the more general definition of the DHR doesn't apply here - it protects the whitehoods playing their games, and it protects the leader of the poor bro kids making a laughingstock of himself. It doesn't protect the anonymity of the monkey brains, and it doesn't guarantee anyone a stage for his opinions. The only part that's remotely touching the topic is the freedom to "hold opinions without interference". Which is of course silly in the cynics mind.
