Regarding twitter conversations about underage consent.
It’s fine up on my feed as a celebrity I follow liked his tweet.

James Dreyfus is clearly a really, really decent human being

He is indeed.

James Dreyfus is clearly a really, really decent human being.

Yes, this.

It's utterly appalling Twitter are only suspending the accounts of these vile people, and have only even done that because JD has drawn attention to how vile they are.

The fact that the platform is enabling paedophiles is why I won't use Twitter. Ever.

SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito · 30/07/2020 22:21

He's great. He's screaming into the void though I think, sadly.

Twitter and Reddit are MRA run, it would seem.

James Dreyfus is clearly a really, really decent human being.

I'm so glad he's taken this on.

I noticed this on his thread:

Because in the male-dominated tech industry, free speech is primarily about men's sexual "needs". There was a great thread about this stuff in the aftermath of the Reddit shutdowns, I'll see if I can find it.

How the fuck are paedophiles allowed to Twitter but Posie Parker and Graham Lineham not?

ThePurported · 30/07/2020 19:55

Great guy. He also tweeted this

"What astonishes me is the ease with which children, vulnerable women & adolescents girls have become the MOST disposable, when it comes to ‘championing inclusive causes’.

In fact, it sickens me.

Do people even possess a moral compass anymore?"

The MAP crowd even have their own charity now. Didn't they go after Sarah Phillimore? Picked the wrong person there.

Apparently according to Twitter's policy this is all dandy as long as they're not glorifying or promoting child exploitation in any way Hmm

I'm glad hes doing this, more attention needs to be brought to it and Twitter needs to know it is not acceptable.
Twitter is a cesspit and needs to be cleaned up, one of the reasons I came away from it was all the MAPs, MRAs and furries.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 30/07/2020 19:23

Very funny too. A great account to follow.

FloralBunting · 30/07/2020 19:21

He's one of the very few reasons I was happy to use Twitter for a time. Thoroughly decent bloke.

Alonelonelyloner · 30/07/2020 19:08

Great! Thanks. I just started following him.

MsMarvellous · 30/07/2020 18:12

He's really taking the bull by the horns.

risefromyourgrave · 30/07/2020 18:11

I love James Dreyfus, he’s a voice of reason in a sea of madness.
