So I went to see if my Bird account was unsuspended since Elmo's allowing Nazis to continue posting, thinking it was a blanket unban. And NO, my account is still locked. These are targetted unblocks.
I was suspended for saying that the Pope should "slap pedo-priests siilly" and it was considered "calling for violence" BUT LITERAL NEONAZIS ARE ALLOWED TO POST.
Elon, Trump, etc. are absolutely nothing more than frontmen for foreign powers to BUY anything that actually works.
@artisanrox I think you got out at a good time. Very very early this morning we started to hear from fired Twitter staffers, supposedly 3700 out of ~7000 are due to be fired & many are in Trust & Safety where they make the banning decisions (they were down to just 15 (FIFTEEN) people staffing it before today (heck it could be 0 now for all I know)
@VDOVault I agree. Honestly, the place was a perfect haven for nazis even before Elmo took it over because moderation was sooooooooo subjective. Mods were even told to be as unhelpful as possible. If any of these mods suspended my account I don't feel sorry for their job loss one bit. Good for 'em.
The Bird always operated at a loss. Wondering if the place was even built for this moment. 🤔
