Original Note:
Post is misleading. The operative word is "for". The conviction reported on was in fact not for posting on social media per se, but inciting violence against racial minorities. If the OP used e.g. "following", instead of "for", no note would be necessary. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/aug/09/two-men-jailed-for-social-media-posts-that-stirred-up-far-right-violence
