Why Does Twitter Cater To The #BlackLivesMatter And #Ferguson "Movements?"
Many "Anti-Protester" Accounts End Up Unfairly Suspended; Some To Never Return.

The true colors of what many consider a βliberal left agendaβ at Twitter have become apparent over the last few months, actually weeks. Sure, there have been some βhigh profileβ suspensions in the past, one of the most notable being Conservative Todd Kincannon. Many thought Twitter would never suspend an account with 60k+ followers, but they did. And they did so not based on βtweet content,β rather pressure from the Left.
The Twitter platform itself allows for users to click on any tweet they do not like and deem it as harassing, threatening β or the most common, βspam.β Then, the internal algorithm inside of Twitterβs tiny little brain activates a series of automated motions that start βlockingβ or βsuspendingβ accounts depending upon who and how many file reports.
One of the most common suspension-related issues today is the gang-like, bully-mob mentality of the #BlackLivesMatter folks. One or two users, usually with a fair number of followers, merely tweet out something like βeveryone block and report @USERNAME for spam.β Thatβs all it takes. When enough see and do this, that specific @USERNAME account is gone.

Restoring a suspended Twitter account can be an exercise in futility. There is absolutely zero consistency in how Twitter doles out or adjudicates their suspensions. Some users are told, βyour account will not be restored,β only to have it reinstated in short order. Many times, Twitter fails to respond at all to their automated βappealsβ process. One of their more common tactics is, βyou have been participating in targeted abuse or harassment.β Ask Twitter to give you an example or two of any such tweets. They wonβt. In fact, trying to communicate with Twitterβs @Support department is one of the hardest things a user can do. As proven, itβs easier to break into the White House.
Early in March, Twitter suspended a βhigh profileβ anti-protester account @RumpoleRT. The reason given to the user was, βyou made a violent threat.β The user, of course, claimed otherwise and asked for proof; which was never provided. Despite stating the account would never be allowed to return, it appears to have been recently reinstated.

Another well-known βanti-stupidityβ account taken offline as of late was @Fergtards. This tweeter frequently and vibrantly called out the repeated shenaniganβs of the #Ferguson and #BlackLivesMatter cretins. While @RumpoleRT was well regarded for keeping the masses advised of court cases and hearing dates related to the criminal-minded βfergtards,β the real @Fergtards tackled the individuals and their tweeted mistruths with head on precision, often posting facts about actual police shootings, black-on-black violence and even the devastating housing market numbers for Ferguson, MO since Michael Brown was killed. Or, as @fergtards liked to say, βcommitted suicide by cop.β
Both @Rumpole and @Fergtards have said they wonβt return to the Twitter platform. A shame for their loyal followers who came to rely on their witty and precise characterizations. Both handled this extremely well in under 140 characters. Together, they were phenomenal. I used to spend hours reading only their timelines.
But, one can see the point in giving Twitter up for good. Why build a following and commit time towards sharing information when youβre still just one-click away from being shut down with no reason provided? Yet, others who call for the death of police officers and release personal information on their families continue to operate on Twitter with no boundaries whatsoever.
In February, Twitter CEO Dick Costello was featured in an article stating, βwe suck at dealing with abuseβ and going on to say, βWeβre going to start kicking these people off right and left and making sure that when they issue their ridiculous attacks, nobody hears them.β Obviously, Costello wasnβt talking about those calling for a race war on white people, because the hateful blacks and their white-guilt sympathizers can still tweet whatever they feel like on Twitter, and do.
Costello has bigger problems at Twitter. Like, how to preserve shareholder value and increase advertising revenue. His focus on making sure the voices of certain parties and factions are squashed, while promoting the unfettered messages of people who literally hate America does absolutely nothing for shareholders. Most Boards would fire him.
So, what exactly is Twitter Chairman and Co-founder @jack Dorseyβs infatuation with the #Ferguson and #BlackLivesMatter fanatics?
Is it because he is from St. Louis himself and wants to improve the community? That seems unlikely since no one has heard about any βDorsey Foundationβ making capital and community improvements. Does he have a βblack thing?β What about a βgay thing,β akin to @deray McKesson or, a βfat thingβ like Johnetta (@nettaaaaaaaa) Elzie or local Leigh Maibes? The latter who promotes herself as a βFerguson Live streamerβ also received a Twitter suspension after posting a violent gun threat to her @stackizshort account, but has quickly reappeared under a new account, @fergusonstream1. In addition, several other cop-hating and anti-white accounts such as @Bassem_masri, @OpFerguson and @ThatsRacistAF2 also received Twitter suspensions, albeit brief, for their own despicable tweets. But, each pounded out reinstatement requests directly to Dorsey who promptly complied.
What is the real goal at Twitter, Inc.? A national revolution? A race war? Why can one view the @jack timeline and witness such a sympathetic trend towards black criminality and a staunch highlighting of police misconduct?
Itβs obvious that Twitter is more than just a social media platform; itβs a tool for a liberal-left, socialist agenda. And, while Twitter fails miserably in the area of stopping real threats like ISIS, they do a fine job in making sure their buddies can tweet whatever the hell they want with little or no recourse.
Twitter isnβt news anymore. Itβs propaganda.
I guess we get what we pay for.
