One of the biggest examples would be Kathy Griffin's picture. You can argue it's "art," but not the kind that should be forgiven and/or ignored. I should also mention the Ayatollah of Iran not being perma-banned from Twitter with his blatantly obvious rhetoric directed against anything a reasonable person wouldn't consider as immoral, wrong, or illegal (think his anti-homosexual stances and calls against such). I do not have a Twitter because I believe it would increase the stress in my life but I do pay attention, and those two are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

There is also the organizing of protests/counter-protests of Antifa, that have turned to violence and/or riots, taking place on Twitter. that's a bit of a weak argument but the past 4 years have shown the MO of that particular group. So when that group and other individuals aren't equally punished as compared to their opposites who are actively punished, then what we got here is a breakdown of standards and a breakdown of the system.

I have Twitter but I primarily use it to get Financial news because it typically gets info out much quicker than a news source that needs to draft an article and verify sources and often by that time I would have missed the move in the market.

Sadly, I have no clue what the Kathy Griffin pic was but will google it shortly.

I also had no idea that the Ayatollah even had a Twitter, lol that kinda shocks me. It does not shock me that he would attack the LGBT community. But, we have developed a pretty thick skin to words - the problem with the Ayatollah is that like Trump his words inspire people to act

so why is the ayatollah allowed but trump not?

if rules arent enforced equally they are not rules but weapons

Not as bad as Trump. Call me when the ayatollah is flying the flag of US enemies inside the capital

lol 😂

trump is worse than the ayatollah lmfao

The ayatollah isn’t responsible for thousands of dead Americans every day

trump is literally walking around breathing covid into tens of thousands of people a day

Is this... insurrection?

Sedition?

If it was real

Oh the role of Twitter is to censor people killing Americans, not their own countrymen?

Trumps band of thugs were physically in the nations capital trying to hang mike pence

....

with what ?

the mock gallows?

Well. It’s certainly not art. If it qualifies as art it should qualify as a threat.

😂 I’m sorry this is pure hysteria. Go outside man.

The gallows or nooses they were making in the building or bombs they brought or guns

this is totally gonna hang someone and not fall apart with 5 pounds of weight applied

its totally not a political statement like the guillotine antifa put outside of bezos house

"OMG ANTIFA LITERALLY TRIEDTO BEHEAD BEZOS"

They brought a wide variety of methods to do the killing. Complete with spears to mount heads on and a verbal desire to do so

🤣

So... on the Kathy Griffin thing... I do not recall the news story but I never saw the Tweet. But per some articles I just read she was sanctioned by Twitter the post was removed and she even issued a public apology.

So.... You can't really say her tweet was ignored by Twitter because that is simply not accurate.

Someone just posted a 2014 Tweet from the Ayatollah's account that is very clearly one that should have resulted in a ban. I wonder if there are any more recent examples of that??

I totally remember all the pearl clutching meltdowns when that Kathy Griffin pic dropped. Screaming to hang her for literal treason.

those people were equally ridiculous

😆 you should write some fan fiction. Leftists would eat that up. You’d make millions.

she deserved a temporary suspension though

according to twitters rules

LOOK AT HER LITERALLY INCITING MURDER

That’s laughable. Consider what would happen to trump if he did the same with a Biden head.

It can be yes.... Because they could also be implicated if they were the means by which a mob was organized to ... oh I don't know..... storm the Capitol .....

Fan fiction? Right wing loons were literally arrested with these things 🙄

Well then, at least she was punished and apologized. To the Ayatollah thing I'd have to search up images through google since, you know, I don't have an account. I do know he is still active, or his account is still active.

Why do you hold the Capitol sacred but not locally owned black businesses?

@Dedkraken please stop watching rachel maddow

or at least understand it for what it is
