Twitter bans pro-Trump meme creator Carpe Donktum for copyright infringement
NY Post ^ | June 23 2020 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn, Fox News

Posted on 06/23/2020 11:25:01 PM PDT by knighthawk

Twitter has permanently suspended user Carpe Donktum, who made pro-Trump memes, due to repeated copyright violations.

Carpe Donktum has risen to viral fame among conservatives after several of his videos have been shared by President Trump, most recently a satirical video mocking CNN, which was later disabled because of copyright complaints made by the content owner.

A spokesperson for Twitter confirmed to Fox News, “We respond to valid copyright complaints sent to us by a copyright owner or their authorized representatives. The account was permanently suspended for repeated violations of this policy.”

No, its the poke Trump as much as possible corporation. Dorsey hates Trump obviously. Even more than your typical SV Exec. But they don’t want to lose him. Not just because he is their bread and butter, and the outrage, but as long as he is under their authority they can harass and harry his support at will. So the trick is to step on Trump’s foot as much as possible but not enough for him to leave so they can continue to try to bleed out his supporters. Then if he loses they will finally ban him. I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened right after Election.

...

Considering Twitter’s recent actions including the ridiculous flagging of one of the president’s Tweets as being violent, I’d say they are on the way to closing his account.

Carpe has seen his work retweeted several times by President Trump.

He’s the best memeologist and so he’s hated by the leftists running Twatter.

President Trump’s own son highlighted this censorship.

The copyright citation itself is a scam. This is a plan heading to the election.

Parler is a good alternative. Less complicated to use..

Others booted off Twit, YT, such as George Webb, are there.

He’s over on Parler. I never had a Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram account. Signed up for Parler today. Still trying to figure things out.

He's on Parler:

He posted this 2 hours ago: "I have NOT created a backup Twitter account. Any account claiming to be me is a fraud. If I can't have my own account, I will have none.

Thanks for the video, where CNN tries to push it as a manipulated video.

One of the comments was about how this is a meme and the liberals are going nuts.

Too bad the liberals can’t excuse their Bubba Wallace “noose” as just a silly meme!

When he was still on twitter, Carpe Donktum showed a video of a nuke going off and stated “racist toddler video incites war with Iran!” (or something like that.)
