Twitter suspended 1500 accounts because they were posting "intentionally misleading election content." Interesting justification what does not hold water at all. Let's see what's going on with these accounts. Quotes from the below source:
What Is NPC, the Pro-Trump Internet’s New Favorite Insult?
"The campaign, which was born in the fever swamps of 4chan and Reddit message boards, involved creating hundreds of fictional personas with gray cartoon avatars, known as NPCs. These accounts posed as liberal activists and were used to spread — among other things — false information about November’s midterm elections."
"Several months ago, users on 4chan and Reddit, the online message forums, started using the term NPC to refer to liberals. These people, they said, join the anti-Trump crowd not because they are led by independent thought or conscience to oppose President Trump’s policies, but because they’re brainwashed sheep who have been conditioned to parrot left-wing orthodoxy, in the manner of a scripted character.'
"The campaign began as a joke. But a few of the accounts started posting misleading information about the midterm elections, including encouraging liberals to vote on Nov. 7. (Election Day is Nov. 6.)"
So, encouraging liberals to vote is misleading election content? <<<< Only NPC-s believe this.
