    A 12 hour ban? That's not a punishment at all. That only serves to make her a victim in the eyes of her followers, garnering her more support for more stupid bullshit.

    Come on now, don't be so ridiculous.

    I’m somewhat certain that this temporary censorship will lead to her following the conservative mantra of “double down on the bullshit” which will then result in steeper and steeper timebans.

    Surely the platform that prides itself on never banning anything will be okay with a meme of Trump in a Guantanamo orange jumpsuit being executed. Unrelated: where do I file a GETTR First Amendment complaint? I mean, if social media deletes something, that's a First Amendment violation, right?

    I hadn't thought of that before.

    Didn't Kathy Griffin get in trouble for that Trump beheading pic thing she did?
    Yet it's the very thing they are "fighting" for now and have on this platform. (this time real beheadings)

    Also my aunt is one of those people that claim Facebook is a right and yes any ban there or anything is infringing her rights.
    It's a weird thing when people don't know the meaning of the words they use and don't understand basic concepts we have laid out in writing.
    Like communist. It irks me how much they use this.
    They need educating.

    Or just the hypocrisy of it all.

    "we hate cancel culture!".... "oh wait you're not going to tow the party line? cancel the rino's!"

    Trump now threatens to primary anyone who won't fall in line;
    Meanwhile claiming his free speech has been taken away whilst simultaneously having said free speech to spout absurd claims of stolen elections on his blog, on newsmax, on fox etc etc etc

    It's all the same behavior.
    There was that commercial in the 80's and 90's about drugs where the kid yells in the end:
    "I learned it from watching you dad!"
    That.

    They're proto-Nazis looking for their Hitler. Basically.
    Let's pray they don't find a proto-Nazi smarter than Trump. We were somewhat lucky we got Trump. He was an idiot but was still trying to wrest power alone for himself. He failed, but only due to how stupid and incompetent he is and how vigilant much of the rest of our government is.

    Republicans and the Federalist Society got all they needed out of Trump. This Supreme Court didn't take up his case, but they may very well just for a smart, disciplined, white nationalist Christianist fascist. (I know it's a lot of ist words, but they all go together.)

    I'm sure this time will be different, and she will learn her lesson.

    Just kick her out, already.

    There's nothing "orwellian" about getting a suspension from a social media company for breaking the rules. Just like it's not Orwellian if you get kicked out of Safeway for not wearing pants.

    How is a company refusing to do business with a lying fascist an example that Orwell was right?

    These Trump cultist are just so fucking stupid. I am really getting to my limit here with some that I know in the workplace. If you believe in lies and spread lies, it is safe to assume you can't do your job honestly.

    That doesn't answer the question. You specifically chose to compare a company not wanting to do business with a lying fascist... and link it to Orwell.

    Man, you Trumpsters are getting a bit absurd with this nonsense.
