Free speech?

Someone else said they didn’t know why they were suspended. A woman I follow, her tweets are no longer visible.

You don’t get to cheer when conservatives were banned unjustly and without cause and then act all upset when someone from the left experiences a ban. Maybe he is a domestic terrorist?

Among the accounts suspended on the platform include:

New York Times technology reporter Ryan Mac
Washington Post reporter Drew Harwell
Former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann
Former Vox reporter Aaron Rupar
CNN reporter Donie O’Sullivan
Mashable’s Matt Binder

Twitter suspended the accounts that tweeted public tracking information of Musk’s private jet, violating the platform’s rules, which were updated Wednesday.

“Any account doxxing real-time location info of anyone will be suspended, as it is a physical safety violation,” Musk tweeted Wednesday. “This includes posting links to sites with real-time location info."

CNN, NYT Complain About Journalists Suspended from Twitter

CNN and the New York Times released statements about their journalists being suspended from Twitter on Thursday.

“The impulsive and unjustified suspension of a number of reporters, including CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, is concerning but not surprising,” a CNN rep tweeted. “Twitter’s increasing instability and volatility should be of incredible concern for everyone who uses the platform. We have asked Twitter for an explanation, and we will reevaluate our relationship based on that response.”

Thursday evening, Musk defended suspending the accounts. “Doxxing rules apply to ‘journalists’ as everyone else,” he tweeted around 9 p.m. Eastern after the suspensions.

Twitter released new rules Wednesday prohibiting the sharing of “live location information” after Musk revealed his child was stalked due to his private jet’s location being publicly shared.

Criticizing me all day long is totally fine, but doxxing my real-time location and endangering my family is not

He’s lied about why he’s suspended them. He’s just a pissy little boy, using his ownership to punish people he doesn’t like.

That reminds me: are you excited about the digital trading cards of trump? He’s selling them for $99. I thought you’d be letting everyone know.

Musk suppressing free speech in real time. He entered a twitter space that was full of journalists talking about this (the undeserved suspensions of journalists), didn’t like what he heard, and immediately had twitter spaces disabled.

As usual, teasel, you're wrong. It's all over the news. Twitter has a policy against doxxing. I came here to post that info, but as usual Jwhop is on it and ahead of the game. Musk has every right to protect himself and his family from some psycho knowing where he is going to be at who might have violent motives.

I knew you would advertise them for us. You are such a hypocrite. It's rich seeing you now defend free speech on Twitter! Hilarious!

‘People’ Will Die’ and Other Epic Meltdowns Erupting After Musk Twitter Suspends Journalist Accounts for Doxing and Violations of Terms of Service
December 16, 2022
Sundance

There is a historic irony surrounding today as the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party (December 16, 1773) and Elon Musk suspending the accounts of multiple journalists who violated the Twitter terms of service about publicly releasing private information without consent. To say the ‘splodey heads are epic, would be an understatement.

Aren’t these the same people who were supportive of censorship? And who claimed they would leave Twitter if Musk bought it? What if it were a Dem’s children who were being tracked and followed?

After taking a poll, these accounts have been reinstated.

Accounts who doxxed my location will have their suspension lifted now.

So, it looks like he chose democratic principles and free speech over the safety of his child.

He had only originally suspended them for 7 days anyway.

Dear teasel,

Are you happy now, since you are seemingly ok with doxxing?

they weren't doxxing. If you actually thought for yourself, and looked into it, you would know that.

Anyway, I responded against my better judgement here, and in another thread, where I had a lot more to say. If I post a thread here again, I probably won't be reading responses. They're rarely anything but insults for me, so why bother?

Musk gets to determine the definition of doxxing. It’s his platform. It’s rich hearing you tell people they don’t think for themselves. You merely parrot whatever you are told to think.

Ok. Can you please share with me factual information showing that they were not doxxing? I am perfectly open to changing my mind if you show me proof.

It's kinda entertaining in a weird way to watch the leftist heads explode when THEY are starting to feel the blunt of censorship. The same folks who rabidly supported censoring those on the right and made fun of free speech, are now dramatically draping themselves in the flag of Free Speech because now they are feeling what its like to be censored.

Karma, b...tches!

You have no leg to stand on to complain about censorship, unless you have the memory of a bird, and if you still have the nerve to complain, at least, be a decent human being, resolve to fight for free speech for EVERYONE regardless of political affiliation.

I am beginning to think Elon Musk is a genius, because he has singlehandedly forced the leftist media to now fight for FREE SPEECH!

None of us were able to bring the left to that realization. Debating, reasoning, cajoling, boycotting, nothing worked. But Elon has finally gotten them to that point. Genius, I tell ya!

I suspect that now that he has accomplished this feat, Musk might feel like, my work is done, since now yall understand the value of Free Speech and he will retire from Twitter...

So they’re saying it’s really bad to suspend people from Twitter 🤔

Come on, lefties, repeat with me:


The First Amendment ROCKS!


You cannot claim it for yourself and not for others. It doesn't work like that. Let us all work together to defend it in the future.

Have a great holiday season everyone!
