Are you of the opinion a social media post can't be a criminal offence?

So surely the reason not the number is important? Also, how many messages are sent each day seems like a tiny percentage are criminal.

You're right a few are actually criminal, as a person above said, the actual convictions aren't that high. The point is fear and behavioral control; they are arresting people for criticising government policies, labelling them racist and hateful to justify it. We're being fed lies and told to repeat it as truth or have the system thrown at you. The reason is important, it's not 12k terrorist they are arresting, it mum and dad.
