Elon Musk has suspended a Twitter user who created a ‘youth attracted person’ flag to support pedophiles.
The billionaire tech CEO shut down the account – under the username Pot Luck Pony – and condemned it in a tweet.
The account, which had no identifiable name associated with it, had earlier posted the blue, white, pink and yellow flag on their timeline.
They claimed it was for ‘Alice Day’, which is a sick, pseudo-holiday created by some to celebrate pedophilia.
The account posted on Tuesday: ‘Happy Alice Day, to those who celebrate! I figured, why not use today to unveil the YAP (Youth Attracted person) pride flag I designed almost a year ago?
‘I wanted to stray from the oft used horizontal bars motif, but only a little. I wanted to retain some familiarity.’
Under a day later, Musk kicked the person from the social media site and condemned the tweet.
He wrote ‘not tolerated on this platform’ in response to a post from Dr Anastasia Maria Loupis.
Dr Loupis, who says on her account she is a medical doctor, had posted: ‘Elon Musk suspended the person who made a pedophilia flag. Well done, Elon.’
She later also replied to Musk, saying: ‘Thank you dear Elon. You are doing amazing things for humanity.’
Twitter slashed its child sexual abuse team in half in December after taking over the social media giant in October.
