My guess is someone didn’t double-check the account name that had received 1000 abuse flags in the last half hour and just followed procedure.

- mst 9y agoGiven the number of accounts that I've seen indefinitely suspended for a report storm that were honestly quite reasonable, this seems likely to me.
- anonu 9y agoMy guess is that there are certain accounts that have separate procedures. Twitter is in the black this quarter for one reason - and I'm pretty sure its the @realDonaldTrump.... If your company was being propped up by 1 individual - wouldn't you put special procedures in place to make sure nothing inadvertent happened? (EDIT - GUESS NOT!! https://twitter.com/TwitterGov/status/926267806261407744 https://twitter.com/TwitterGov/status/926267806261407744) As a side note: I started using Twitter a lot more to follow @realDonaldTrump. It doesn't matter what I think about him. The reality is we live in a new news paradigm where every POTUS tweet is news before the actual news writes about it. Thats powerful... I'll go straight to the source then...
- IgorPartola 9y agoIt’s not the source though. He basically posts his reactions to stuff he hears on Fox and Friends. It’s pretty well known that he can keep his attention on primary source briefings that every other president has relied upon before him. Unless you count a thousand word CNN article about a short tweet as news. I don’t. I skip those articles because basically it’s just journalists being baited.
