Unreal: Twitter’s ‘Report a Violation’ form includes ‘disagreement with my opinion’
Twitchy ^ | February 24, 2016 | Twitchy Staff

Some conservatives have recently been suspended from Twitter without notice, while others have either deactivated their accounts or simply quit tweeting. Tonight, it looks as though conservative columnist A.J. Delgado has been suspended without explanation.

Adam Baldwin yesterday said goodbye to Twitter voluntarily, after clearing up the media’s narrative that censorship, not “alleged censorship,” drove him to look for greener pastures.

What’s disturbing is Twitter’s “abusive user” form, which includes among its transgressions “disagreement with my opinion.”

They seem to have forgotten the most common selection:

I’m a precious snowflake and am unable to tolerate the fact that the world doesn’t revolve entirely around me and my chosen perception of reality.

Their stunning revelation of that simple fact of life is quite interesting to behold.

Further down Delgado tweeted that he had temporarily deactivated his own account, he needed to decompress.

What’s worse is the level of enabling going on. Instead of saying “grow up and grow a pair” to these people, we’re now calling everyone under 30 (except the military, God bless them) “children” or “youth” and giving them “safe places” where they don’t have to experience anyone who might disagree with them, while they wallow in their self-styled, sanctimonious “tolerance.” They are seriously self-deluded, and they have an entire support system around them, enabling and perpetuating that process. Really sad.

Wow. The mind boggles. I’d like to think that this is an answer those who follow up on the violation forms are trained to ignore, but somehow I think not.

“They are seriously self-deluded, and they have an entire support system around them, enabling and perpetuating that process. Really sad.”

The only important thing is how will these isolated preprogrammed little snowflakes vote. They are the end result of decades of operant conditioning and public school propaganda.

The problem is that they will use such things to try and silence the opposition.

I hate to break it to some of you people, but I don't know what Twitter is and don't use it. I don't care to know what it is or care to use it. Not missing a thing.

And believe it or not, my life is going just fine without Twitting.

I imagine Donald would have a field day with this, if they did it to him.

The problem is I could see him doing it to others.

I've been posting here for years now, and aside from your initial review process which I fully understand has to be done.. I have never been put back in the queue.

Is it because I dared oppose the Trump candidacy?

There are numerous posts opposing Trump on this site so maybe that is not the reason.

I've been posting here for years now

If you have then you are a retread. What name did you use in your former incarnation? You should add a sarcasm tag to your tagline.

I've been posting here for years now ... BTW, you can be assured that this comments and Many others will be posted elsewhere

Elsewhere works, since you just admitted being a retread since you're a 2015 signup.

Good catch.
Torcert will be back, obviously.
Wonder what his priors list looks like.
