Just shining some light on what Twitter is doing

quote:

A popular Twitter account mocking Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was hit with a permanent ban after apparently gaining too much steam on the big tech platform. The account, which clearly indicated itself as "parody" in its Twitter name, amassed over 85,000 followers before Twitter shut it down for unclear reasons.

Apparently they said it was because the parody account was too similar to her actual account. I shite you not, I'm not making that up.

Man frick Twitter and everything they are about

Rule of thumb, if an ideology requires constant censorship of opposing ideas to stand up, the ideology is fundamentally flawed

Shes so fricking stupid that a parody of her is too easily confused with the dumb shite she says.

So, it's official.

The left has become immune to satire and parody because the left is now satire and parody!!!

So does anyone still doubt that all of these Social Media platforms are now nothing more than Democrat advocacy groups?

Twitter has to be taking money from big DNC donors.

All of ya'll should go and listen to Rogan's podcast with Jack Dorsey and listen to the challenges Twitter has with this stuff. The one with Vijaya Gadde General Counsel explains why they take some of the actions they do.

They are also the first ones to admit they aren't perfect and want a platform for all voices.

If they weren't sincere, why did Dorsey and Gadde just meet with Trump the other week in the Oval Office to explain all of this? Trump was bitching his followers were down 2.5% after Twitter deleted a bunch of bogus accounts. They explained to Trump why they did that and he ceased bitching about it.
