    You can find an anecdote of anything. However that is certainly not common place and certainly not the reason the left irrationally calls for censorship of those they disagree with.

    Totally bro. It is the fault of the left that trump is a frothing at the mouth lunatic/bigot who violated the TOS on social media platforms. Trump's shitty behavior is never the fault of Trump.

    Does it matter?

    I would venture to say that his supporters would always ignore the long stream of TOS violations and portray Trump as the victim of smart people.

    Well, yeah it does matter. I suspect as we saw from the Twitter files, he didnt break any TOS and was simply banned because orange man bad.

    He did not break any terms of service on Twitter? That seems an odd and untrue claim.

    Twitter files emails show otherwise.

    “I’ll respond in the elections channel and say that our team has assessed and found no [violations] for the DJT one.”

    Heres Trumps tweet that got him banned

    “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!!!”
    Fifth 'Twitter files' release details Trump's last hours on platform as employees fumed (nypost.com)

    Nothing more than the orange man bad standard.

    He was not banned for an amalgam or career of poor behavior and TOS violations?

    The reason why Atlanta is on fire is because the GOP controls the house. IMO, this thing with the black man killed by police in Memphis will turn to violence because the GOP controls the house.

    While the dem party controlled the White House, the Senate and house, not a peep was heard from violent left wing extremist groups. Now that the GOP controls the house, we'll hear from violent left wing extremist groups.

    This story is more about Mark Zukkerberg trying to claw back some of the massive credibility loss than it is about Trump. Letting Trump back on doesn't matter when he no longer matters is a fail .. that credibility is gone gone gone .. we the people knows where the devil resides and painting over with lipstick is not going to lessen the oink.

    You can go back to thinking for yourself .. twirling round in a circle crying "Donald, Donald, Donald" -- as the deer who wanders onto the road with on comming traffic at night

    Of course. When someone is listening you talk. If you are fighting oppression and the listeners are gone you fight. Is this somehow a surprise?

    Im sure the orange man bad crowd would characterize it as an "an amalgam or career of poor behavior" but there wasnt any TOS violations.

    FYI, the facts !!!

    https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/topics/company/2020/suspension
    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.

    The video they pulled was the one where Trumps tells all the protesters to go home. The tweet praised those who voted for him. Nothing in the video or the statement could be interpreted as the glorification of violence. Like the twitter files stated they didnt see any violation of the TOS and instead banned him under their "Civic Integrity policy".

    FYI, 4 other insurrectionists were found guilty this week. They look forward to a 8x14 cell, 23 yrs a day, all over deliberate false accusations from Trump.

    The original post is the one that doesn't make sense.
