i do love the Gulf and EU desperately trying to message out "its going to take a while unless you put real people in charge" to the corpse of the American establishment

The message explains the illegality and harm of such material and provides a button labeled "Get resources" for help or more information.
Meta is censoring searches for "El Salvador mega prison" as CSAM. They control social media and are ensuring that no one will see the truth of what the US is doing.
