People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

MODERATORS
Strongly disagree with the second part there. People like Mussolini deserved it.
I'm strongly against the death penalty. But cases such as Mussolini are an exception. Not because he deserved it though. You could claim many people deserve to die but we degrade ourselves and our society by making and acting on such judgements.
But if Mussolini had fallen into the hands of allied forces, he would quite likely have ended up returning to power. The partisans had a chance to chop the head off Italian fascism, and they took it. Good call.
