Twitter banned the account of a pro-Trump grassroots campaign with 15 state field directors along with another prominent Trump supporter, failing to reinstate the accounts on the same day that the company came under fire from the president himself for discrimination against conservatives. Eight days ago, Twitter banned the account of a pro-Trump grassroots organization called New Right US (@newrightus.) Co-founded by political activist Mike Tokes, the account represented an organization that mobilizes Trump supporters around the country.
“We have over 15 state directors and a team of social media influencers throughout the country” said Tokes. “It wasn’t just some website with no action. We were really expanding.”
Because Twitter refuses to be transparent about the reasons it suspends accounts, it did not inform the owners of @newrightus, or Breitbart News, why the account had been suspended. Tokes says the account, which accumulated approximately 10,000 followers prior to its suspension, had not engaged in any rule-violating behavior.
Tokes says Twitter initially restricted the account for seven days, but that “now it shows no option to reactivate, meaning it’s permanent.”

This is a campaign donation to democrats. I am not for banning anyone except maybe you.
Thia should be considered a donation to RATS.

So People should start writing non-censoring clones of Facebook , Twitter Google etc. And they might make money doing it.
Google , youtube , facebook , twitter , amazon have become a monopoly . This is even worse than having your phone company tell you “we didn't like what you said in that phone call so we are canceling your account”.
It's all because most of these cretins like Zuckerberg, Dorsey (twitter), the Google creeps, etc. are from The San Francisco area , the most far left city.
These creeps are not that smart since they use capitalism to amass billions of dollars but are for marxism/socialism which would take away their billions and redistribute them. They might know business but have no clue about politics proving that they are not geniuses since they think marxism/socialism actually works.
So that means these leftist idiot are not smarter than us and we can also code similar or better apps, websites , platforms.
When do we get to see the specific tweets that caused the ban?
I have no doubt the LEFT has a troll farm targeting accounts.
Full time paid trolls. It needs to be discovered who these people are.
All of this needs sunlight.
In the meantime, tell Twitter to piss off.
And they are both free to scream as loudly as they can to get their way. That’s the rules.
The government says you can’t choose who you rent your property to. They’re already in the business of minding your business.
What federal government department do you want to dictate the content that social media platforms must permit?
Yeah the Facebook, Twitter, youtube, Google, Amazon leftist monopoly are shutting up our side so that the democrats take the mid term elections.
Then step 2 is the democrat congress impeaches and or removes Trump. That’s the marxist mainstream media’s plan.The leftist Facebook , Twitter, Youtube, Google ,Amazon etc. are following that plan too.
I hope it doesn’t happen . It’s up to us to stop the marxists .
“The government says you can’t choose who you rent your property to.”
No they don’t.
I have rental property and I have never had a government official tell me who I must rent to.
Gab has drawbacks. Do you know mind?
Lets help the conservative businessman make a decision. Lets make a hole in the market that you could drive a truck thru.
Do not fund the LEFT.
Facebook, twitter, google, LEFT MEDIA CARTEL, etc etc
You want a conservative or neutral alternative?
Stop funding the LEFTISTS. See tagline
Twitter denies it bans or shadow bans users based on politics.
Hell they deny shadow banning at all.
BAKE THE F***ING CAKE!
Just try not renting to a protected minority and see what happens to you.
No, tit for tat. Ban liberals.
What, they can’t Masterpiece us now?
Actually, Twitter is only one medium, and if there was no more Twitter, Donald Trump would go on Facebook. Franklin Graham does, now.
bully pulpit yes. EO NO!
You understand that if the govt gets its fingers in the pie when the LEFT ever gets the reins again they will use it against us.
The govt does not have constitutional authority, except perhaps antitrust, to get involved.
If we ask govt to get involved every time we have a problem, we are giving the LEFT exactly what they want, an ever growing, expanding fed behemoth and they will turn around and use that law against us.
We need to stand on our own and use free market solutions to these problems. Obvious solutions.
Stop funding the LEFT. Look at your discretionary spending and remove all spending that funds the LEFT.
In the case of the social media platforms that are free, just stop using them. And let them know that you are quitting because of their bias.
Tell the cable tv company that you want a la carte programming and you will be back when they offer it.
I apologize for the rant but I am passionate about this and very frustrated because so many conservatives have the power to change the free market for the better but they will disrupt their lives even a little bit.
The LEFT has a 10 point advantage because of LEFT MEDIA CARTEL. Imagine if the LEFT had to play on a level playing field. Would they ever win another election?
I use Twitter daily, a lot. I read a lot of threads, “follow” many varied people and learn all sorts of new information. But I read only- I have no account there or FB or instagram. I have wanted to sign up on Twitter a few times, but I RESIST!! I’m just not willing to sign up on anything other than FR:)
What @jack is doing isn’t right or fair or even moral, but it’s his company.
I haven’t even mentioned content. Geesh, go back to the dump would ya?
Hypocrisy comes to mind.
Its the lie. The fraud. If you ask Twitter they are neutral. Facebook neutral. Google neutral.
They are all lying right to everybody’s face.
Twitter wont say why they are banning this group when it is obvious.
Breitbart is open and honest about who they are. Twitter lies thru their teeth.
The only solution is a free market solution. Imagine there is a conservative or neutral option. Trump moves there and takes millions of users with him.
Twitter would be circling the bowl.
Stop funding the LEFT and they will either change their ways or die.
