It's entirely possible the account posted different content beyond tracking the jet. It's also possible a mistake was made and the account will be restored.
When Kanye was banned for posting a swastika, people spread a rumor that it was for posting a picture of Elon looking fat.
So we have a history of there being more to it here.
Maybe we should actually find out what the account has posted recently, or see if it was a mistake, first?
- dmix 4y agoWaiting to find out more details is antithetical to the internet outrage machine.
- ceejayoz 4y agoInventing imaginary details to justify hypocrisy is bread-and-butter of the internet outrage outrage machine. The @elonjet account hasn't posted anything outside the norm; I was a follower. Anyone who'd like to provide evidence otherwise is welcome to do so.
- micromacrofoot 4y agoassuming there’s more to it when we have a history of there not being more to it seems similarly foolish
- dmix 4y agoWell I personally have nothing to gain or lose from waiting for at least the account owner to comment (no tweets as of this moment) https://twitter.com/jxcksweeney https://twitter.com/jxcksweeney let alone something from Twitter I don't expect it to stop others though
- nickthegreek 4y agoHe has tweeted. And guess what, it looks like just what everyone has been saying! Who woulda guessed?!

- dmix 4y agoWe already knew his account was suspended… That’s all he said. I was talking about an explanation. Usually Twitter tells them.

- dmix 4y agoSeems like the account runner hasn't tweeted anything? https://twitter.com/jxcksweeney/status/1602354433807061070?s=46&t= https://twitter.com/jxcksweeney/status/1602354433807061070?s... The last thing they said was Twitter backtracked on 'deamplifying' his account. I guess maybe something changed.
- Ensorceled 4y ago> Maybe we should actually find out what the account has posted recently first? Yes, because Elon has certainly earned all the benefit of the doubt. Also, what did "we" find?
- nailer 4y agoWell yes, exactly - the last time time someone said Musk had banned an account, it turned out it was because someone pasted the symbol of a group that murdered a few million people on the basis of their race, not because they insulted Musk. I'm glad you understand the history here.
- d23 4y agoSo if it turns out Elon lied, you’ll change your opinion of him?
- nailer 4y agoYes I will. Though it would be uncharacteristic if he did - he made a point of keeping Elonjet alive, and not deplatforming people because Twitter staff dislike them - assuming the account content remained the same, it's likely someone at Twitter made a mistake and the account will be restored. Will you change your opinion of Musk if this ban turned out to be a mistake? Did you change previously your opinion of Musk the last time "Elon bans someone because they insulted him" turned out to be untrue?
