Is there a decentralized twitter clone that runs on the Tor network?

The fact that there is a total media blackout on this news is as big a story as watergate

You can’t arrest an Israeli government official for trying to rape children, that’s antisemitism!

The kids he was trying to talk to were obviously Hamas.

Maybe stop using his platform then? It’s not that complicated.

In 2025, Alexandrovich was arrested along with seven others in Nevada as part of a sting operation targeting child sex predators.[1] He was charged with attempting to lure a child for a sex act, a felony which carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.[12] He was granted a $10,000 bail and subsequently allowed to return to Israel despite awaiting trial and his lack of diplomatic immunity.[9][13][14][15] He returned to Israel and was placed on leave from the directorate. He had been attending the Black Hat computer security conference.[9][12]

Well summarized. We'll see if he shows up in court.

Rich pedos gotta stick together!

“GOP” just stands for “group of pedophiles” and all the evidence clearly shows that I’m right

How come people are okay with this? Am I missing something? Are we the bad people? Is it wrong to feel like shit when you see that?

[–] reallykindasorta@slrpnk.net 3 points 5 hours ago

Maybe if you start ignoring your own eyes, ears, and faculty of reason you’ll feel better!

Who gives a shit what Shaun King says. Fucking scammer

[–] KnitWit@lemmy.world 9 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, I’m not saying I don’t believe that it may be happening. But I definitely don’t believe what he has to say on anything.

[–] YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH 8 points 7 hours ago

Exactly. It is very believable. If it was coming from someone credible, like Robert Evans of Behind the Bastards, I would immediately believe it. But with King I think it is believable but he has a history of lying for profit so /shrug.

Personally? Wow.
