Twitter censors user for tweet about transgenderism: A Twitter user shared a screenshot of her censorship notice. The user had tweeted "Around 2015, my husband and I started talking quite a bit about how it seemed like there was something really wrong with a lot of people. It was unsettling and a little bewildering. Looking back, that period was like a weird prodrome of sorts. Now we're entering the acute phase." She included an image promoting the so-called "trans day of vengeance." Twitter claimed this tweet violated "one of [its] rules," but did not specify which one. The user's account was locked until she deleted the tweet. It appears Twitter censored every post about the Trans Day of Vengeance, even if the post criticized the event. Twitter VP of Trust and Safety Ella Irwin tweeted that the platform "had to automatically sweep our platform and remove >5000 tweets /retweets of this poster. We do not support tweets that incite violence irrespective of who posts them. "Vengeance" does not imply peaceful protest. Organizing or support for peaceful protests is ok."
