🚨 Social Media Storm Lands Man in Jail 🚨
David Morgan, a 24-year-old from Aberdare, is trading tweets for time behind bars after being sentenced to 20 months for his appalling racist posts. This self-proclaimed white supremacist used his large social media following to spread fear and hatred, targeting black and Jewish communities.
Morgan, who had amassed over 127,800 followers on X (formerly Twitter), abused his platform to glorify Nazism, peddle conspiracy theories, and dehumanise minorities. Despite numerous complaints, his offensive content remains online, raising eyebrows about the platform’s oversight.
In court, Morgan admitted to nine tweets specifically intended to incite racial hatred, though these are just the tip of his disturbing digital iceberg. His harmful narratives contributed to a climate of fear and increased threats to marginalised groups.
Judge Lloyd-Clarke didn’t mince words during sentencing, highlighting the severe harm and danger Morgan’s posts posed. She emphasised that such behaviour in the digital age has real-world consequences.
This case isn’t an isolated one. It follows a trend of online hate leading to legal repercussions. Just last year, the wife of a Tory councillor faced prison for similar acts of racial incitement.
The message is clear: spreading hate online isn’t just a tweet—it can be a ticket to jail. Let’s hope this serves as a stark reminder of the responsibility that comes with our online presence. 📵✋
