A prominent journalist for GQ and several other outlets, with a blue checkmark on Twitter, with a blue checkmark on Twitter is now openly advocating for porn for children.
The Media Research Center reports: “Picture this: a whole genre of porn created just for children – complete with all the nudity, graphic physical acts and exposed genitalia, but without all the kinky bits. Actually, don’t picture that. Please don’t. It’s gross.”
Flora Gill, a prominent journalist who has written for GQ, openly suggested in a post on Twitter that the porn industry should create “entry level porn” for children. Obviously, she deleted the post almost immediately after it went up due to extreme backlash.
Luckily, the internet is forever, and screenshots of her post were quickly published by several people, including conservative commentator and senior editor for Human Events, Jack Posobiec, who wrote: “The journalists are at it again.”

Gill has written pieces like “I Admit It, I Hate Men” and has her pronouns in her Twitter bio (she/her), so it’s pretty much obvious that she is a leftist.
Soon after deleting her tweet, she posted about her decision to delete it, writing:
“Absolutely not getting swept up into another twitter cesspool so deleted tweet before it picks up steam! Obviously not an actual solution, but it is a real problem. Everyone take a deep breath.”

Obviously, deleting the tweet did not stop it from picking up steam. Frustrated about all of the negative attention she was getting, Gill posted another tweet, basically begging for people to pretend she didn’t just advocate for children to watch porn. She wrote: “apropos of nothing I really think if someone quickly deletes a tweet, it shouldn’t be screenshotted and shared like… just let it die, you know? no? no one else agree?”

Gill even tried to clarify her original tweet, almost making the situation worse, and ended up deleting the clarified tweet as well.

Of course, the internet wasn’t going to let her off the hook so easily. The backlash was swift and strong.
Journalist and commentator Tim Pool shared an image of the tweet, writing:
“they gotta test the waters somehow
post shit like this, wait for reaction, then take it down if it goes too far
Now she’s justifying it saying she just meant consent
bruh she wants porn for kids dont forget it”

Will Black, a writer, called Gill out for trying to get people to forget about her tweet.
“Starting a tweet with the word apropos isn’t going to help getting a stupid tweet about ‘making entry level porn for children’ forgotten. It would be illegal. One might hope that any ‘journalist’ but especially the daughter of recent Home Secretary Amber Rudd, would know that,” he wrote, pointing out that Gill is the daughter of Amber Rudd, a British former politician who served as Home Secretary from 2016 to 2018.

Siraj Hashmi, famous for creating “The List” (a list of people who should have their phones taken away from them after posting ridiculous tweets, including prominent journalists), shared the image of Gill’s tweet, writing: “deleted, but the List comes for all, @FloraEGill.”

“That ‘porn for kids’ tweet is horrific but it’s really not too far from the view of many people. There is certainly not unanimous support for requiring porn sites to put age restrictions on their content. Lots of folks aren’t all that bothered by kids being exposed to porn,” wrote Daily Wire host Matt Walsh.
“And they aren’t bothered by it because restrictions might mildly impede their own access, and they’d rather have unfettered access to videos of people having sex than protect children from harm. That is the view of millions of Americans, whether they say it out loud or not,” he added in a subsequent tweet.

It is both unbelievable and completely believable that a prominent journalist would send out a tweet about porn for children. Many people are shocked, but at the same time realize that the left has been inching closer to a topic like this with their promotion of degeneracy for some time now. At least Flora Gill was honest, for a brief moment, about her disgusting beliefs.
The question is: will cancel culture come for her? Many people are wondering if she will lose her job over this. Gill is currently a freelance writer regularly writing for Sunday Times Style, Sunday Times Magazine, Tatler, The Spectator and The Evening Standard. She also writes a bi-weekly sex and relationship column for GQ called ‘Date Night Feelings’ and is a contributing editor for Tatler. Will any of these outlets fire her?
