my piece on X / Twitter suspending users who post the name tied to far right comic creator StoneToss
Elon Musk's recent policy changes: posting the identity of right-wing users = suspension posting the identity of trans users = personal support from Musk mashable.com/article/elon...
My experience was, posting the Stonetoss name as 'what's up with this, seems bad' = suspension. Appealing with 'wait, does that mean this is not left wing hogwash' = reinstated…
I got suspended, appealed my suspension, got my account reinstated on appeal, and then got suspended for the same tweet a second time. After a few days of the second appeal not being responded to I just deleted the tweet to get the account back and tweeted it again.
I’m still banned even though they took down my posts for me after demanding I do so. I’m not sure how I’ll go on now that I don’t have access to his terrible website
This kind of stuff is what prompted me to leave twitter.
It wasn't Musk's "free-speech absolutism", it was the fact that he only applied it to right-wing culture war issues.
I can see why he would go to bat for his right wing besties. He is so desperate for their attention.
I just do not get why he is going all out to support a shitty Nazi comic book artist.
