Huh... didn't their country like go up in serious flames while the government when on vacation and told all of the citizens to quit fscking crying?
Imagine if they used the link tax to pay for actual fire control programs?!
Instead it goes to the shareholders of a vile old man who is already taking 11 of the dozen cookies & telling the white bloke that the darkie is coming for his cookie.

Re:

Moderation is their right, mocking them when they are shitty at it is my right.
No we point out their claims of their 1st Amendment rights are violated by a platform aren't based in reality, because the platform isn't the government.
It is amazing how many of these 'silenced' conservatives take to every possible platform to scream how silenced they are.
But then deep down, they really don't care.
They use this as a dogwhistle to scare people into believing that the left is going to tell them they can't say what they want... they can say whatever they want, they however are not due any protection for others being offended by their words & asking them to leave.
Anyone can say the n word, however the response will vary.
If you show up in your neighbors yard screaming the n word & burning a cross, you don't then get to complain to the police they they ran you off & made you stop threatening them.
But then your thought process is about as shallow as the end of the genepool your cousins mated in.
One does wonder what color the sky is in the world where you think you scored points or put me in my place...

Twitter, punishing poor folk they just don't want to deal with.
I mean I played it off as being a nym means no giving them a cell number, but the truth is I'm fscking poor.
My life hit massive changes & well cell phone isn't something that I require for quality of life. For less per month then I was paying for the cell I get actual unlimited internet for a single price for a full year.
Yes I know that believing me comes at a cost, I surround myself in mystery & hyperbole. But Mike & others have seen how losing this social outlet takes a serious toll on me, & being confronted with the idiotic monolith that says oh if you can't provide a number let us know... and then 16 days & multiple reminders I can't provide a number they magically discovered their bot hunting AI tagged me by mistake.
I'm sure it would have taken longer or never happened but I know people who know people who went to bat for me & suddenly the monolith moved. 16 days & I needed Mike's help (who Jack pays attention to on teh twitters) & Cory Doctrow (yep that famous author guy, I know him too) to get anything to happen.
How the fsck is the average user supposed to handle this?
They obviously know that not everyone has a cell phone, yet in practice the system just ignores people pointing out they need to use another path you claim is there but refuse to reveal.
For the life of me I do not understand Twitters obsession with 'before we can let you serve your punishment, give us your cell phone number so we can text you and prove it is your number.'
I guess maybe they just want to use those numbers to buy more data about you form the data brokers to see if you are worthy of an account.
Their intention was to hit me on the nose with a newspaper, you spread the covid misinfo, NAUGHTY, BAP, Now let us text you & THEN we'll let you be chided again & generously let you delete the tweet so that the countdown timer for your sin can begin.
No interactions with the good people of twitter, only your own tribe for 12 hours... then we'll all sing kumbaya but if you do this again... we might ban you for life!!
Lets see I've been suspended 3 times now...
The first 2 they admitted they fscked up & said sorry...
Crumple up a piece of paper, now smooth it out, tell it sorry... is it pristine again?
Now I am sitting being punished longer than the MRA asshole who talks about doing horrible things to actual people, he gives them a cell number & is back in 12/24 hours to his cheering fans for having escaped Twitmo.
I might be an extreme edge case, but am I?
The monolith will not admit to being a complete shitshow in how their rules are applied & they definitely do not want to admit what their false positive rate is.
The monolith will not tell us the average wait time for users that fall outside of the get a text & serve your time (they do have a trendy oh we're really busy b/c of the covid so it might take a few extra days... its been a fscking week assholes).
The monolith will not tell us if there is a review of cases where the gay guy called himself faggot, was banned, appeal denied, appeal denied, & then magically oopsie we messed up.
I mean I can identify several problems with what happened from the details I know (monolith provided nothing)
The tweet was 2 yrs old - this should have been a red flag.
The tweet was reported by multiple mutuals - this should have been a red flag.
User directly asked for an explanation of how calling himself a bad word was promoting hatred towards others. - The word faggot overruled logic (pay no attention to the results of a search for the word faggot on the platform).
The monolith will not tell us what happens to bad faith reporters.
The people who mass reported me, in an attempt to get someone else booted off the platform, we're so excited to take me out... until they figured out I wasn't a sock for their actual target, I was collateral damage in their pissing contest.
Did they serve a single minute in Twito?
Why is it okay to lock me out for weeks but people who abused the system got to run around all excited that they took me down?
I mean I get the fear of revealing any superduper secrets might let bad actors game the system... stares at a system being gamed daily anyways
I joke with Mike & Raccoon Dad (I MISS YOU TIM!!) about moderation here, I manage to trigger it more than the average real person (i think, maybe? Mike have we ever counted?) I stopped being upset by it early on, because the tradeoff of me hitting moderation is the thousands of posts that are spam & stupid that get caught. I've accepted that how I post & interact with the site sometimes smacks me on the nose with a newspaper.
The biggest difference is if I reach out to TD support, they do something in a reasonable amount of time. (Usually, couple times they've been slow but they have other stuff to take care of they aren't paid just to handle appeals like some monolith employees who sniff glue).
Hell you can see 2 of my posts this week where I just include the Thanks for kicking this out of moderation line b/c I know I will have triggered it, I'm to fscking old to change how I interact with the site so I accept it.

I can't see the benefit on the monolith b/c homeopaths put on lab coats and post covid scare information and they are still posting to this day... but I make a snarky comment mocking the insane beliefs & BAM!
Oh hell what if I found the 1 Trump supporter & offended them by questioning if he actually was the messiah & the covid was just a handy coverup!
Makes as much sense as any of their decisions in my cases, how many in TwitMo don't have the soapbox I have access to?
The monolith will never tell... its busy trying to recreate OnlyFans with a 280 character limit...

Your team suspended my freind responding to a picture of food for saying it made her want to slap someone.
She is now suspended for promoting violence towards others.
By threatening a hypothetical someone.
Your team smacked another freind with a timeout for her response to a video of someone doing a fake kidnapping for a bday party or something that if someone grabbed her like that she would hit him.

Meanwhile Congress is screaming how tech companies are killing off competitors by buying them... but an energy drink company has harmed small businesses across all markets is allowed to keep running wild claiming that anything that remotely looks like an M & is any shade of green would confuse their customers...
I really want to watch one of these brain trust customers try to pop the top of a car & drink it.
If only they employed lawyers who were smart enough to tell them that they don't have to defend against every M & color green thing in the world... that their mark will be safe & these lawsuits do nothing but pad the billable hours for lawyers who are destroying small businesses across all industries but no one remembers the lawyers name, we just know Monster is run by a bunch of idiotic money grubbing assholes who love nothing more than forcing others out of any business.
