TWITTER Buries 32 of Donald Trump’s GOTO Battleground Tweets! (This article is false; see #60)
Gateway Pundit ^ | Oct 7, 2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/07/2016 5:19:54 AM PDT by ConservativeWarrior

On October 3, 2016 Twitter deliberately “shadowbanned” (censored) 32 of Trump’s tweets, plus it deleted one other tweet.

When Twitter shadowbanned Trump’s tweets, the general public can no longer see any of the tweets, and only users who replied or re-tweeted the tweet’s can see said censored tweet — or if one knows the URL/web address of the tweet, one can see said censored tweet.

Twitter said should be treated as a utility. Your phone can't be turned off for sharing offensive ideas. Neither can Twitter! #FreeRicky

Alinsky’s 12 Rules:

1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.

2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.

3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.

4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news.

8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.

10. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.

11. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.

12. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.

I went to gab.ai and couldn’t start an account there. Do I have to see images to start one?

IMHO, Twitter, like all social media, is a waste of time. Sorry, but I’ve got more important things to do. Like getting out the vote for Trump to overcome the massive voter fraud planned by the RATS. And FReeping here on FR. Donated to the FReepathon yet?

With all info in cyberspace there is no need for an orwellian memory hole to burn books etc. No need for the (un)fairness doctrine. They can simly wipe out all truth and free thought with the click of a button or pull the plug on Michael Savage etc. Welcome to the brave new world comrades

I don’t use Twitter and you don’t, but our candidate has been using Twitter effectively.

So it IS a big deal that in the middle of a campaign they shift their policy.

“IMHO, Twitter, like all social media, is a waste of time.”

_____________________________

Your opinion is in the extreme minority. Thankfully, Trump , like most, doesn’t share it, and has used social media extremely effectively to this point, which has benefited his campaign greatly.

twitter is committing suicide.

they will not find a buyer

all buyer talk is hyping up stock prices so insiders can jump ship and shift burden to suckers.

in the end twitter will be forced private.

Twitter’s leadership cut a deal with someone. Their system might go to the dogs and their staff with it, but they won’t.

It's easy for us to sit back and say Twitter isn't important and I don't use it. The fact is millions use twitter to report the news and retweet. It's today millennial way of the reporters getting their news out. Yes, they are a majority of left-winded liberals but they are our media! Just saying I don't use it and oh well, its no big thing, it is big! It starts here and spreads to where?

ALL media reporters tweet their news and millions follow them and retweet positive or negative tweets. Ask yourselves, how has the Deplorable's found out the truth about the liberal slant and lies our media put out? Its twitter the many millions follow. Its a big traffic area in our country. This is a serious issue when censorship is SILENCING TRUMP SUPPORTERS!

Twitter is going to regret doing that. They’ll say it was a glitch.

I was concerned that Trump’s tweets were going to be censored.

Unbelievable that a stupid company with a stupid name has power over what a Presidential candidate can post and who can see them. Begs to question: Will Twitter have more power than a US President?

I tried to sign up for that over a month ago and got put on a waiting list as the app is still in beta testing.

As I recall, I was #500,2** in line but I never got any kind of confirmation email or anything from them saying that they had received my application.

This is false information. Those Trump tweets are in the advertising rotation and are not displayed on the timeline at all. This is by design.

Twitter has been unfair to Trump supporters, that is certain, but this is not one of those cases.
