My complaint:
In November, I was suspended for responding to another X member’s question about what the fitting punishment should be for José Antonio Ibarra, the delightful young immigrant who savagely murdered Laken Riley. I responded that the punishment should be the maximum penalty under Georgia law, which is death.
One of X’s censors decided to label this as a call for violence and suspended me for a week. It was actually the ultimate legal option, but that did not seem to matter to them. I let it go and took my unjust lumps.
A few days later, another X member posted a photo of Michael Byrd, the Capitol Police officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed protestor at the January 6th Washington, DC protest. The poster asked what this man was. I spoke the truth and called him a murderer, since a murderer is one who needlessly kills another person. Many other police officers are routinely called that if they shoot an unarmed civilian.
My account was permanently suspended. I was invited to contest their decision if I disagreed. I did and was told in an apparent form letter that they would decide and I’d hear back from X in a few days, or perhaps a bit longer. It’s been more than a month. I have presented quotes and screencaps from other X members who have posted far worse things in graphic and explicit language. No response. I’m still banned.
At least, I think that’s why they banned me. They’ve never told me why they felt the need or obligation to take the drastic action of permanently suspending my account. I still have not been accused of any specific infraction of X’s rules.
When Elon Musk purchased Twitter, he assured the public that his version of this platform was going to a be a cleanly improved forum for truth and freedom of speech. He was removing the heavily-biased censors who had been banning members who weren’t supporting the Left. Apparently, He’s missed a few censors in that sweep. If X is using a AI bots to screen posts, they need work.
Suggested solution:
Restore my account and I'll follow their rules rigidly.
