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.”

Not ghosting. Often, I just read. But, yoo are not ghosted.
Jack can do what he wants, and we can do what we can to kneecap him as a result.
That’s the game the Left has put in place.
Beat them at their own game.
Call it the Conservative Chatter
It is frustrating that so many conservatives will not follow through.
If I ever find the time, I was considering a survey to see how many Freepers do.
It is his company, but he should be transparent and just tell us he is anti free speech political arm of the Demoncrat party.
Breitbart posts its articles, and the comments sections have lots of leftist trolls. Doesn’t seem that controlled to me!
Who is going to do something about it?
++++
We are! We are free people(for the moment)
Look at all your discretionary spending and activities.
Anything that funds the LEFT drop like a hot rock.
It is really that simple, a free market solution.
Yes, it will be a convenience. But compare the inconvenience to your freedom, everyone’s freedom, and decide which is more important.
The LEFT already has an advantage with THE LEFT MEDIA CARTEL. Now they are trying to increase their advantage by censoring conservatives on social media platforms.
The LEFT does not play by the rules. We need to fight back hard with free market solutions.
If Trump switches, millions will follow
ditto for any new conservative site.
These leftist marxists have a monopoly and complete control over the whole internet . Just Google alone would.
If Goolge doesn't want your site to be found by searches it can do that.
This is a tremendous problem for conservatives.
But some are trying .Epic privacy browser, Steemit , D-tube , mastadon etc. but none are big yet cause of the monopoly .
those rumors about social media being part of the Deep State don’t seem so fanciful any more.
You got that right! The LEFT would infiltrate and turn this into full blown govt censorship.
We would be playing right into their hands.
Hip Hip Hooray!
I salute you.
Free market solution is the only way to go.
I would weigh that against censorship which is a serious drawback.
Does GAB censor?
Is their criteria legal/illegal?
But you have to give them your cell or you can’t get code. I did it then got message my phone is “activated”. I texted back OFF and it said there could be charges but I’m just so pissed.
True — he’s put Twitter on millions of maps.
The difference is Breitbart is honest about it.
Legal/Illegal would be my preference.
My affinity with free speech and all.
I had an account and always liked Trump's tweets etc. so they knew i was a Trump supporters to they did the phone oppression on me and asked me for a cell phone number.
I didn't want to give them my cell phone number . So i tried to create another twitter account but it wouldn't let me so they recorded my ip or something. so I got epic privacy browser and used their proxy so it looked like i was in another country.
I got epic privacy browser and created another twitter account. I haven't acted politically with this account and just use it for business. And the kicker is twitter hansn’t harrassed me with the phone number bs on this account because i haven't been poltically conservative with it.

great post! a very important point.
BUT, as soon as they think they've eliminated any conservative speech the infighting will begin and their perfect world will begin to implode.
There are too many factions of the left for one or more of them to not want to take control of the other's speech.
Just let it take it's natural course.
It's already happening because of that socialist twit from New York...Look what they did to Bernie
