Twitter censors user for tweet about transgenderism: A Twitter user shared a screenshot of his censorship notice. The user had tweeted "This hasn't even happened yet, but yet it hasn't gone over well." He included a link to another tweet 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 he 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."
