Twitter is suspending 70 pro-Bloomberg accounts, citing ‘platform manipulation’
LA Times ^

Posted on 02/21/2020 6:19:02 PM PST by ameribbean expat

We have taken enforcement action on a group of accounts for violating our rules against platform manipulation and spam,” a Twitter spokesman said. Some of the suspensions will be permanent, while in other cases account owners will have to verify they have control of their accounts.

As part of a far-reaching social media strategy, the Bloomberg campaign has hired hundreds of temporary employees to pump out campaign messages through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. These “deputy field organizers” receive $2,500 per month to promote the former New York mayor’s candidacy within their personal social circles, in addition to other, more conventional duties. They receive campaign-approved language that they can opt to post.

The video by the Bloomberg campaign about the silence from his debate opponents raised quite a fuss. It was harmless
Wonder if they’d allow the Paul Ryan pushing grandma over the cliff now?

Bloomberg isn’t a corruptocrat. They don’t want anyone who threatens the gravy train.

I like just a little Moo left in it.

But I sure don’t care how anyone else eats theirs, as long as I’m not forced to buy it for them

That crossed my mind.

I love that they give Trump a platform to 70 million people instantly every and all day.

It must keep them up at night.

He eats burnt steak? Well, mark me up as a never-Trumper now. < /s>

Hey, Bloomie, at least try to pick something that would offend Trump supporters like granting clemency to the Senate seat auctioneer Blagojevich.

Exactly.

This is just one more way of Bloomberg indicating that only his way is right on
such silly things.

I would be concerned. If he's this anal about nothing, imagine what he'd
be like when the stakes were big.

Twitter is by the far the worst of Big Tech. A real sewer of authoritarian leftism.

What is the intended message? Bloomberg is upper class?

How is “he eats burned steak” an insult?

He buys from the same athletic equipment place that Michelle Obama buys hers.

Oh, wait. You meant people who are in favor of a candidate. Not the cup kind.
