They’ll probably try to ban the President.

On a related note, I’ve lost almost 1,000 followers in the last 6 months or so. I think most of them have been banned/removed by Twitter.

Anyone else experiencing the same thing?

Youtube is banning and demonetizing, Facebook is banning, Twitter is Banning, Mastercharge is banning, and Trump says NOTHING. Alex Jones helped him get elected, and he does Nothing. What a guy!

Makes sense. Just like Lois Learner at the IRS, Twitter and other platforms are trying to censor conservative speech.

These actions are designed to influence an election. Specifically the mid terms.

This tampering is done by US companies, not the Russians.

Per Twit CEO the bannings are timeouts to modify behavior.

It hit me an hour or so ago that this stuff is sort of like the Colorado bakery thing, where Twitter, Youtube, et-al are the baker and we are the customer.

One difference is that these organizations are very much the equivalent of “the only bakery in town”. And we’re not even asking them to give us anything special. They are merely offering us their generic service and we must follow their rules. But those rules must be publicly displayed.

So, do you think InfoWars has a case for a lawsuit? Do you think the AG should force the ogranizations to re-instate infowars as a member?

Why can they deny him service while a baker can’t deny a homosexual service, regarding selling off the shelf products?

There are laws against discrimination for things like skin color, religion, ethnicity, and lately sexual orientation and sexual identity.

But those laws do not stop discrimination on political grounds..................

They suspended me for calling Brennan a "muzzie".

So I went to one of my other spoof accounts and called Biden a pedophile.

They suspended that one, so now I'm in the process of calling Cuomo a dick.

They've requested a phone verification for that account.

I gave them the White House Switchboard number.

This keeps up, I won't have any spoof accounts left to harass the DUmmies with.

Why don’t you get you Trump hatin’ arse outta here. You blame him all the time for everything.

What do you expect him to do? He speaks out more than anyone.

Blame Congress. Blame yourself and then just scram.

Simple: Don’t tweet on twitter, don’t google on google, don’t face off on facebook, and don’t you on youtube.

You are being swarmed. The left has figured out that since they really don’t have anything of value to say, they can do more good for their cause by silencing others.

They do this by using Twitter’s rules to get people banned. They will do mass follows on people to make their numbers look fraudulent...which will trigger an automatic / 12 hour ban.

Check to see if your followers spiked prior to your ban.
