You may be right. But we don’t know that for sure. We can assume it because it makes throwing shit at Elon easier, and believe me I’m happy to throw shit at him, but I want it to be accurate. More importantly that wasn’t the context of most comments. They are the standard ‘call your opponent a pedophile’ tactic that the right wing lazy wankers use. Why? Because who would defend someone accused of being a pedophile? It takes out the person you’re against and their defenders. Unfortunately this tactic if throwing an accusations of pedophilia at the drop of a hat lessens the impact of legitimate accusations.
Is it better to close it or just leave it unused?
