This shit is getting scary now, arresting people for joke anti-democrat memes? Shhhiiittt
@freemo He got arrested for taking away people's voices in a democracy. That's considerably more serious that making jokes, and probably worth looking into: https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/douglass-mackey-ricky-vaughn-donald-trump-hillary-clinton/2021/01/27/78a37940-60c8-11eb-afbe-9a11a127d146_story.html
@sergiopantalone well no, he got arrested for posting obvious joke memes about being able to vote on twitter with a hash tag... he was openly republican and clearly jokingly posting about voting for hillary.
Anyone who was dumb enough to believe it, thats on them, but it was very obviously intended as a joke.
@freemo We'll see how obvious the joke based off the results of the trial. I'd like to live in a world where 'it was just a joke' is no longer a valid defense. Those jokes tend not to be very funny anyway...
@sergiopantalone By the way the account here he posted from, @Ricky_Vaughn99 was very well known and clearly republican.. so anyone who saw those toots and thought it was legit, considering they were jokingly encouraging people to vote for hillary, clearly just took the joke seriously.
As for him having other accounts and running some elaborate scheme, no evidence has been shown for that yet, and I believe the evidence first, so if and when they show proof of some nefarious network maybe ill change my tune, as of yet not a single account has been named other than the one.
