Also 5-6 times had acct locked, always citing non specific "unusual activity" & requiring phone/code entry to unlock. This was always when I was hitting some timely new FF/hoax or anti-joo issue pretty hard, like dropping my red pill reply/link/vid comments into multiple threads begun by other, ideally 'popular/influencer' people... who get insta likes/comments/RTs by the 10s/100s on everything they tweet. There, my comments appear behind a "Show more replies" speedbump, of even a 2nd "show more, which may contain offensive content" speedbump.

    I believe they human/AI pigeonhole people into categories of wokeness, then their tweets/RTs only have any chance of being seen in the feeds of their followers who are likewise already woke; with zero chance of falling into the feeds of the "Conservative Inc" majority who've not been likewise identified.

    Of course twatter's also big on gaslighting wrt what they allow or forbid to trend, thus giving ppl false impressions of "how most ppl feel about XYZ", similar to the JSM's fake opinion polls, & boosing muh russia muh impeachment etc as the real public snoozes, falsely feeling 'isolated' in their views.
    The internet promised a change in general awareness due to unfettered access to information. The fix? Control and adjust the new technology to achieve the same results as before, which is described perfectly in Pat's last paragraph above.

    LOL! Then Twitter came for the globalist communist government propaganda services.......

    thepostmillennial.com: CBC program that hosted Omar Khadr has been suspended from Twitter for “glorifying terrorism”
    “Tout le Monde en Parle” the French-language CBC program which hosted Omar Khadr on their Easter Sunday program this year has been suspended from Twitter.

    According to the official Radio-Canada website a disgruntled user took credit for the account suspension claiming the program was “glorifying terrorism” and that it was a “terror apologist”.

    Khadr, who was convicted of being responsible for the death of U.S. Army Sergeant Christopher Speer, entered the program’s studio to general applause before being interviewed by the TV show’s host Guy A. Lepage...

    Currently, Twitter has not been willing to comment on the individual suspension.

    The profile was last known to have nearly 150,000 followers before being suspended. According to Lepage, the situation is in the process of being remedied.

    Yes but not exactly the same because with news and tv media you never had the idea that your ideas were equally heard as on internet, you knew it wasn’t. On internet people who mainly share cat videos and infotainment and the latest natural disaster support video, have the idea that all info is treated like their inane shit. They don’t know the suppression of anything non-mainstream approved. And if they happen to share something non-Mainstream approved, and it’s not shared and they don’t get dozens of likes, they assume that it’s because their “friends” disliked the message, while they probably didn’t even see it.

    The censorship is way more insidious and less obvious on social media than on mass media.

    I'm of the opinion that without the anti-depressant effect of cat videos since the beginning of the internet, the world would already be in smoking ruins.

    First they came for the truth, then they came for the hope.


    Guardian UK:Twitter announces broad crackdown on QAnon accounts and content
    Wed 22 Jul 2020
    The company’s restrictions, which will affect about 150,000 accounts, will include blocking URLs and not recommending content
    Twitter on Tuesday announced a broad crackdown on accounts and content related to the QAnon conspiracy theory.

    Twitter announced a broad crackdown on accounts and content related to the QAnon conspiracy theory on Tuesday, citing its policies against “behavior that has the potential to lead to offline harm”.

    The company said it would block URLs associated with QAnon from being shared on the platform, and would no longer recommend content and accounts associated with QAnon or highlight them in search and conversations. These restrictions will affect approximately 150,000 accounts, a Twitter spokesperson confirmed. NBC News first reported the crackdown.

    “These accounts are engaging in behavior that is designed to further the spread of content that has resulted in clear and well-documented informational, physical, societal and psychological offline harm,” a spokesperson said in a statement. “We have been monitoring the situation closely and determined that additional action is now required pursuant to the Twitter rules against our policies on spam and platform manipulation as well as abusive behavior.”

    Twitter asked that its spokesperson not be named due to the threat of harassment.

    QAnon is a baseless internet conspiracy theory whose followers believe that Donald Trump is waging a secret battle against a powerful deep state cabal...

    In May 2019, following numerous incidents of real-world violence, the FBI identified QAnon as a potential domestic terrorism threat.

    Joan Donovan, the research director for Harvard’s Shorenstein Center, described Twitter’s action as a “big deal”. “The Q keyword has brought together a networked faction, aided by automation, that continuously spreads misinformation and inspires dangerous behaviors,” she tweeted in response to the news. “Twitter is late out the gate. Facebook and YouTube aren’t even in the race.”

    In recent weeks, QAnon followers on Twitter have targeted the model and cookbook author Chrissy Teigen, as well as the furniture company Wayfair. Twitter banned more than 7,000 QAnon accounts in recent weeks for violations of its rules, a Twitter spokesperson said.

    Any Federal anti-terrorism action yet other than Trump and Barr tweeting their displeasure with Antifa?

    ABC News: AG Barr creates task force focused on countering 'anti-government extremists'
    June 27,2020
    In a news conference at the Justice Department alongside other department heads, Barr and FBI Director Chris Wray had both singled out the antifa movement -- which President Donald Trump has also blamed for violence -- in their opening remarks, though the DOJ has not provided direct evidence of widespread involvement of antifa followers in the violence seen thus far across the country.

    The day before, however, the DOJ announced the arrest of three men connected to the far-right boogaloo movement who were allegedly plotting to incite violence at protests in Las Vegas.

    New York Daily News: [President] Trump permanently banned from Twitter
    Jan 8, 2021
    The extraordinary action comes as Trump remains under intense fire for inciting the bloody assault on the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday that killed five people, including a police officer....

    “After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” the social media giant said in a statement.

    Forbes: Apple Warns Parler Of Imminent Ban Due To ‘Serious App Store Guideline Violations’
    Jan 8, 2021
    “We require your immediate attention regarding serious App Store guideline violations that we have found with your app, Parler,” Apple’s letter says. “We have received numerous complaints regarding objectionable content in your Parler service, accusations that the Parler app was used to plan, coordinate, and facilitate the illegal activities in Washington D.C. on January 6, 2021 that led (among other things) to loss of life, numerous injuries, and the destruction of property. The app also appears to continue to be used to plan and facilitate yet further illegal and dangerous activities.”...

    “Our investigation has found that Parler is not effectively moderating and removing content that encourages illegal activity and poses a serious risk to the health and safety of users in direct violation of your own terms of service,” Apple’s letter says. “Content of this dangerous and harmful nature is not appropriate for the App Store. As you know from prior conversations with App Review, Apple requires apps with user generated content to effectively moderate to ensure objectionable, potentially harmful content is filtered out. Content that threatens the well being of others or is intended to incite violence or other lawless acts has never been acceptable on the App Store.”

    Given the language used in Apple’s letter, it seems that Apple has already rejected an app update the Parler submitted. Now the app is subject to imminent removal.
