No one has been targeted on Twitter solely for being conservative.
- paganel 4y agoThis certainly must not be true.
- yamtaddle 4y agoAs captured pretty well in the classic fake meme-exchange that goes something like: "I was cancelled from Twitter for posting about my conservative views!" "Oh no, you were cancelled for posting about restrained fiscal policy?" "LOL no, not that." "Free trade?" "Not even close." "Well... what conservative views are you talking about?" "Oh, you know the ones" wink
- brigandish 4y agoStating that humans are sexually dimorphic? That a man claiming to have transitioned to female is still a man? That got the Babylon Bee sanctioned, for satire. I would also hope that's not a "conservative" view as it's simply a scientific fact.

- zo1 4y agoIt's easy to say that when you define conservative opinions as breaking the rules or harassment. So they get banned for hate and harassment instead of just being conservative or right leaning. Congrats you won on a technicality. So both sides are right, and yet the conversation between the extremes moved backwards instead of finding common ground.
- NaturalPhallacy 4y ago>It's easy to say that when you define conservative opinions as breaking the rules or harassment. That's literally what they did. "misgendering someone" is hatespeech/harassment. When from a sane perspective outside the woke cult: Humans aren't clownfish and cannot change their gender. The emperor's new dress doesn't make him a woman.
- JSchmoe 4y ago>Humans aren't clownfish and cannot change their gender. Hit the nail on the head here. Hence, the medical community's current response is to adjust the individual's body, appearance and treatment from others to match their gender as closely as possible.
- poorlyknit 4y agoExcept there's a difference between harassing people in particular and just stating your general opinion on some topic.
