I don't like censorship for adults, but for children, access to uncensored social media should be restricted. Too many pariahs with bad motives. Uneducated minds still figuring out how to critically think can be harmed immensely. Any child not smart enough to get around whatever restrictions they put in place shouldn't have access to social media.
It's extremely obvious to anyone with English as their first language. "meant" refers to the meaning of his words. "Meant" doesn't infer it's meaning isn't obvious. To clarify for you: It shouldn't be up for interpretation because basic understanding of English would make his statement extremely obvious.
