Poll: Should links to Twitter / X be banned on Overclockers?

Should links to Twitter / X be banned on Overclockers?

  • No

  • Mods edited the OP so who cares anymore


Results are only viewable after voting.
My main motivation for posting this thread was because of Musk's fascist salute. I don't want to see links to his website whilst browsing a completely separate site. I am not happy that a mod has altered the words I have written in the OP. It makes me feel like the mods are downplaying the seriousness of what happened yesterday even if that was not the intention.
Just to confirm because you don't want to see something, others now need to "suffer" (for lack of a better word).

Oh the irony is strong with this one :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Yes indeed.
Where’s all this “I’m sooo offended by this that or the other, that it must be banned” attitude recently come from?
I’m absolutely amazed that some people are actually able to function in their daily lives, what with the energy they must use by being perpetually upset all the time.
If you don’t like something then just move on, it’s not for you.
I can’t link Ricky Gervais guitar lessons vid because of a naughty word, but it sums up quite a few people these days.

I’ve always said, just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right.
 
I don't mind x being banned from ocuk if either all social media or all media is banned from ocuk. If it's just x, it would feel like a political move by ocuk and sadly I would need to reconsider if I wanted to use ocuk if such political statements are being made.
 
Question is null and void because Feek edited it

Yeah I always knew these forums were pretty right wing but this thread proves it. Nothing wrong with it being right wing but it's not the sort of community I really want to take part in. Especially when the moderators are altering my original post to remove the reason for the question.

In my opinion, I will repeat that, my opinion, I believe Musk deliberately performed a fascist salute. Only he knows the reason why. I don't want anything to do with X as that is his tool to promote and proliferate his ideology. I had hoped that a majority of users on Overclockers would also no longer want to endorse Musk by using his product. Many people want to try to separate Twitter from Musk but that isn't a distinction I can make.

In fairness it reads a bit like you're trying to demand that people stop using X, when it's their choice. Most of us know what Musk is like, he's just a weird bloke and Trump will get bored of him soon and he'll hopefully fade away.

X has no real bearing on OCUK, people are free to link to whatever sources they like as long as it's not violent/rude/whatever.
 
This proves he didn’t (it contains humour, you know what that is, right?)..


I dare you do it in Germany, the exact same way Elon did it, do it twice just like him too.

Do it outside their Parliament. Anyone who thinks that isn’t a Nazi salute should go do it in Germany. I bet none of you will.

Let the Germans decide if it is or not.
