Easily tapped central server(s) is my nutshell theory of why rightwing extremists aren't being kicked off of Twitter. Third-party doctrine, and all that.

- Consultant32452 8y agoI honestly can't tell what groups are being banned, nor what the rules are. Isis isn't banned but random right winger is. Jimmy Dore and Kyle Kulinski have pointed out seemingly random left wingers getting banned, Sarah Jeong gets a blue check. It all seems so random and incoherent. I am genuinely lost.
- rhizome 8y agoYou are definitely lost if you think Sarah Jeong should be sanctioned.
- Consultant32452 8y agoI don't think anyone should be censored/sanctioned. ISIS, Alex Jones, Antifa, let them all speak as far as I'm concerned. But to the extent that there are currently censorship rules in place, I genuinely do not understand them. Enforcement seems genuinely random and arbitrary. Sarah Jeong mocks white racists, no ban, fine. Candace Owens copy/pastes Sarah Jeong's tweets, gets banned, not fine. A world in which Alex Jones gets banned but ISIS does not is total insanity. To reiterate, I don't want any of the above to be banned/censored. However, in an world in which the above facts exist, I am suggesting I do not understand what the rules are at all. It seems random and arbitrary.
