Wow, that is fucked.

Non-anonymous Social Media was a mistake.

YA Whispers branded Gab and Parler “alt-right”

Those idiots genuinely don't know what that term means.

Even left leaning liberals that support free speech are being called that. Bloody idiots.

Well she won't make that mistake again. Why people make their private life a matter of public record is beyond me. The internet is a cess-pit and getting worse.

Now we've gone from thought crime to vaguely-possible-intent-crime.
