Hmmm.
Mostly I think this is employees thinking they can get away with such stuff. But it might be a trial run: finding out which votes can be cut off easily, and which raise a stink. This would be useful to damp down criticism after the election.
Silicon Valley understands you don’t need a total blackout to control the narrative, you just need to damp down opposition. That gives deniability.

Is the Babylon Bee back too?

For me, reading about the various Twitter dramas is almost like hearing news about events happening in a foreign country. Though I'm not a citizen of Twitterstan I am morbidly curious about what happens there.

Aaaand now my Twitter feed is back up to two.

The gal is funny! She really puts the tit in Titiana

Twitter delenda est.

Yes. Twitter claimed that they accidently got caught by a spam filter.

What's a Titania McGrath? And just why should I give a tinker's damn?

"Accidentally."

Funny, innit, how all of these "accidents" go one way.

And by "funny," I mean "completely predictable."

Leland said...

Funny how the temporary outage occurred simultaneous the DNC virtual convention. Coincidence, I'm sure.

C'mon man!

As a software guy I say that after the first time something like that happens, you make a list of high-profile accounts that require human intervention to cancel. If they haven't done that, it's because they don't want to, not because it's hard.

Speaking of fake Martin Luther quotes,

“I have a dream that one day little black boys and black girls will occupy separate residential areas from little white boys and white girls, strictly delineated and enforced along racial lines.” - Martin Luther King

She really puts the tit in Titiana

I often misread "Titania" as "Tatiana" because I was in love with a Tatiana on an old Buy-a-Russian-Wife website.

Aggie said...

It looks like Titania got let out of jail without having the Twitter Tax levied - that is, when they suspend your account and strip away all of the Followers, then return your access.

She still has over half-million followers. Nice to see that Twitter hasn't lost its fine sense of the arbitrary.

Ann who is your favorite Beatle and why

Swede said...

The early test run didn't go as well as Jack hoped for.

Twitter couldn't take that much heat yet. Too soon.

Expect the real cleansing to happen 5 weeks to a month out from the election.

They'll dump a lot of accounts, take their beating, but keep on keeping on.

Biden, Biden uber alles. Twitter will be betting the farm.

Titania is someone best ignored by tinkers who don't understand parody, thus have no damns to give.

I watched the race hustler demand reparations in the gentrified neighborhood, a few tweets down from the ones Althouse linked. As a GC myself, gentrifying Austin's former Black and Hispanic enclaves with new residential construction for people of any race, ethnicity, religion, country or state of origin, sex, age, language use, as long as they got the green, I found the video troubling for two reasons.

First, the race hustler was not drenched with water from a hose. Or at least a bucket from a third floor balcony.

Second, the race hustler requested reparations from the residents. Sorry, doll, but we developers are quite sure that WE get the cash from new residents, then the city takes its huge cut, then the HOA, which would fine you for being annoying, then legitimate charities, and maybe then your scam, if there are any dregs left for the dregs like you.

Cudos for the anti-woke bloke.

Jason said...

I got a permanent ban from Twitter for the words "never go full retard."

Now I just search for the word "retard" from time to time and then report all the left-tards who use it.

"What's a Titania McGrath? And just why should I give a tinker's damn?"

*warning: pedantic ahead*

The correct expression is "ticker's dam," a mold used by tin-workers that is broken apart when the piece is cooled. In other words, something of little lasting value.

Of course, the tinker might be swearing as well.

Twitter, Google, and Facebook are always testing the limits to see who fights back hard enough and with enough social capital. Sure, Titania got reinstated, but I pretty much guarantee you that 90% of the accounts deleted in the last week for the same reasons won't get reinstated, and eventually Titania's account will be shut down and not reinstated. It is a full war of attrition as a commenter yesterday pointed out.

Twitter is the worst thing to happen to civil society in generations. Jack Dorsey should be tried for crimes against humanity.

Titania McGrath is a very funny "woke scold" account on Twitter. It's a guy pretending to be a woke female how lacks every shred of self awareness

It took a while for people to figure out that it was a troll, because after all most woke females lack any shred of self awareness.

But Titania McGrath is "even more so."

hstad said...

"Jack Dorsey" doesn't care about "Twitter". It's user base peaked at 53 + million and hasn't grown much over 2 years. He's spending most of whatever talents he possesses over at 'Square' his other company. "Jack Dorsey" knows "Twitter" is not a viable business model, by itself, vs. Facebook/Amazon/Google. Not sure if anyone would acquire it? Depends on the price I guess?

Does she/he mean "Ginger Snaps"? If not, what is a "Ginger simps"?

Gahrie said...

I got a permanent ban from Twitter for the words "never go full retard."

"Retard", and "retarded" are scientific terms that were created to identify individuals who are disabled mentally. They were created because the previously used scientific terms: "moron", "idiot", "cretin" and "imbecile" had become considered insults. We replaced "retarded" with "disabled", and now that is being replaced by "differently abled".

Sort of like "Negro", "Colored", "Black", "African American", and "person of color", and for pretty much the same reason.

JaimeRoberto said...

I still think there's just an algorithm that issues an automatic suspension if an account receives a certain amount of complaints over a certain period of time. It's a very easy system to game and lefties seem to have the time and motivation to do so. Twitter employees don't directly enter the scene until the user appeals the suspension.

Check the next entry in the list for a YUUUUGE hint: Meghan Markle

Like Global Warming; Climate Change; Climate Catastrophe; Increasing Likelihood of Extreme Weather Events; "Number 48 on the Top 50 List of Concerns"; "And another reason for the United Nations to Redistribute Wealth"...

"We replaced "retarded" with "disabled", and now that is being replaced by "differently abled"."

And 'differently abled' will soon be replaced by 'Joe Biden.'

Easy peasy, Prince Harry. He and his dominatrix (like Wallis Simpson with another duke) must be regretting the $14.5 million they sank into a place in Monticito up the road from Oprah's far fancier mansion and grounds. California's threatened tax on the ultra-wealthy will hit where it really hurts.

I know retarded when I see it. Kind of like judges and pornography. Fuck their PC nomenclature!

It's fucking twitter. They know exactly how many followers an account has, how much interaction there is around it. This was an accident like Jeff Epstein killed himself. They are telling you, loud and in your face and with spittle, that they think you are very stupid.

A Titania McGrath is like a Lawrence Meade. A fictitious account made up for comic effect. So cleverly crafted that it take most people a while to realize it is satire.
