Why Twitter Needs To Be Gone For Good: The Hypocrisy and Criminality Of Twitter

 Op Ed: MTG is merely the tip of the iceberg. Twitter is filled with millions of Republican liars and Twitter knows this. Twitter prefers liars because lies make more money for Twitter than truth. The allowed Trump, his traitorous mob and the Russian disinformation trolls to run wild the same as that criminal Mark Zuckerberg, 

Money means more to the trash running Twitter than truth and democracy. What needs to happen is a complete and total shutdown of Twitter and all other social media until they ban lying and allow honor the first amendment. That won't happen until everyone at Twitter is arrested and tried for their crimes. Then Twitter can come back with a three strike rule that says, "If you get caught in 3 fabrications not only are you gone but you may be prosecuted and you will be doxxed and placed on a liars and traitors list for all to see. In the meantime, FUCK YOU TWITTER!

Why does Twitter give a COVID-19 liar like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene 5 strikes?

Opinion: The unhinged Republican congresswoman should have been banned from the social media platform already, not just suspended for a week.


Twitter announced that it has suspended the account of the intellectually unhinged Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene for one week for spreading lies about the COVID-19 vaccine.

This would be the fourth time Twitter has found Taylor Greene in violation of its misinformation policy. A shocking number, really.

I’d have thought it would be 10 times that. Or more. A lot more.

Green is the QAnon conspiracy-touting kook who aligned herself with those who believe Hillary Clinton and a band of Satan-worshipping, child-abusing Democrats ran a human-trafficking and pedophilia ring out of a pizzeria in Washington, D.C.

Greene's support for lunatic beliefs is unending

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has one strike left until she is permanently banned from Twitter. Here's hoping.

She has referred to David Hogg, a young survivor of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., that left 17 dead, as a “paid actor.”

Her lunatic beliefs and/or her lunatic support for the lunatic beliefs of others is unending.

This time around, Taylor Greene said the FDA “should not approve covid vaccines,” which she said were “failing” to reduce the spread of the virus.

No.

The vaccines have saved hundreds of thousands of lives. And would be saving a lot more if high-profile crackpots like Taylor Greene didn’t spread lies and disinformation.

The reason there is a surge in cases of COVID-19 is the lack of vaccinations among individuals who listen to people like her. She shouldn’t be suspended for a week. She should be banned permanently.

But Twitter only suspended her account, with a spokesman saying, “The account will be in read-only mode for a week due to repeated violations of the Twitter Rules.”

Naturally, Kelli Ward backs her

That would be Taylor Greene’s fourth strike. Twitter’s misinformation policy says that violating its COVID-19 guidelines five times could result in a permanent ban.

Fingers crossed.

In the meantime, Arizona’s own conspiracy-touting Taylor Greene-wannabe, Republican Party Chair Kelli Ward, tweeted a response to Twitter’s action that reads: I’m tired of censorship, aren’t you?

Again, no.

It’s interesting how Ward, a doctor, seems to have trouble grasping what are fairly simple, uncomplicated concepts. Not only is she indicating support for the nation’s premier congressional conspiracy kook but she demonstrates an abysmal confusion on the concept of censorship. Censorship is something a wayward government might do to outspoken critics.

Twitter is not the government. Twitter is a version of those changeable letter signs popular these days with schools, businesses and religious institutions. I passed a church recently with a reader board outside that read: Sinners wanted. Apply within.
