Ministers want social media giants to help in hunting down the online trolls who targeted England's football stars with vile racist abuse.
Government chiefs reportedly want tech firms such as Facebook and Twitter to hand over details in a bid to track down those behind the supposed "sickening slurs" and 'make an example' of them.
It comes after the social media users targeted Three Lions stars Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and teenager Bukayo Saka with racist abuse on Sunday night.
When someone uses the phrase "make an example of them",they're admitting several things.
1. They don't care about the basic human rights of the accused.
2. They don't care about fair trials,rule of law,or due process. You're already guilty in their eyes and that's all that matters,not what's written in the law books.
3. They don't care about the public trust. They only care about keeping you in line.
And all that adds up to petty tyrants who don't give a fuck about their people. They're not your friends. Stop respecting their authority,it's no longer valid.
