Members Khan Posted January 9, 2021 Members Share Posted January 9, 2021 With all the attempts he's making at getting back on Twitter through different accounts, Donald Trump is looking more and more like...well...like an SON troll. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted January 9, 2021 Members Share Posted January 9, 2021 I can totally see Trump creating tons of bogus accounts with weird avatars and pretending like it's not him even if everyone knows it is him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted January 9, 2021 Members Share Posted January 9, 2021 Here's the full statement from Twitter's blog https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/company/2020/suspension.html Permanent suspension of @realDonaldTrump By Twitter Inc. Friday, 8 January 2021 After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence. In the context of horrific events this week, we made it clear on Wednesday that additional violations of the Twitter Rules would potentially result in this very course of action. Our public interest framework exists to enable the public to hear from elected officials and world leaders directly. It is built on a principle that the people have a right to hold power to account in the open. However, we made it clear going back years that these accounts are not above our rules entirely and cannot use Twitter to incite violence, among other things. We will continue to be transparent around our policies and their enforcement. The below is a comprehensive analysis of our policy enforcement approach in this case. Overview On January 8, 2021, President Donald J. Trump tweeted: “The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!” Shortly thereafter, the President tweeted: “To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.” Due to the ongoing tensions in the United States, and an uptick in the global conversation in regards to the people who violently stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021, these two Tweets must be read in the context of broader events in the country and the ways in which the President’s statements can be mobilized by different audiences, including to incite violence, as well as in the context of the pattern of behavior from this account in recent weeks. After assessing the language in these Tweets against our Glorification of Violence policy, we have determined that these Tweets are in violation of the Glorification of Violence Policy and the user @realDonaldTrump should be immediately permanently suspended from the service. Assessment We assessed the two Tweets referenced above under our Glorification of Violence policy, which aims to prevent the glorification of violence that could inspire others to replicate violent acts and determined that they were highly likely to encourage and inspire people to replicate the criminal acts that took place at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. This determination is based on a number of factors, including: President Trump’s statement that he will not be attending the Inauguration is being received by a number of his supporters as further confirmation that the election was not legitimate and is seen as him disavowing his previous claim made via two Tweets (1, 2) by his Deputy Chief of Staff, Dan Scavino, that there would be an “orderly transition” on January 20th. The second Tweet may also serve as encouragement to those potentially considering violent acts that the Inauguration would be a “safe” target, as he will not be attending. The use of the words “American Patriots” to describe some of his supporters is also being interpreted as support for those committing violent acts at the US Capitol. The mention of his supporters having a “GIANT VOICE long into the future” and that “They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!” is being interpreted as further indication that President Trump does not plan to facilitate an “orderly transition” and instead that he plans to continue to support, empower, and shield those who believe he won the election. Plans for future armed protests have already begun proliferating on and off-Twitter, including a proposed secondary attack on the US Capitol and state capitol buildings on January 17, 2021. As such, our determination is that the two Tweets above are likely to inspire others to replicate the violent acts that took place on January 6, 2021, and that there are multiple indicators that they are being received and understood as encouragement to do so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted January 9, 2021 Members Share Posted January 9, 2021 ^I've read several profiles of people who seemed normal and then went down the QAnon rabbit hole. I've finally accepted that I will never understand it. Maybe experts can understand it and try to help other people from ending up the same way. As for those who have fallen for it and committed awful crimes because of it, they reap what they've sown. On a different note, If someone had told me 5 years ago that this is what would become of Ted Cruz I never would have believed it. Sure, he was never a good guy, but to become a traitor for Trump after their history is just bizarre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted January 9, 2021 Members Share Posted January 9, 2021 I actually am interested into the reasons why someone falls into a rabbit hole that causes illegal activities. Ted Cruz supporting Trump so much is a surprise, but my only guess is his constituents who reach out are on Trump's side. They arrested podium guy.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted January 9, 2021 Members Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Well, all the people who said, "Trump's an okay guy -- he just needs to tweet a little less," should be very happy today. As if gays and lesbians haven't suffered enough. What happened to "Blue Lives Matter"?? Edited January 9, 2021 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
