Leftists Regretting Twitters New Rules They Thought Aimed at Conservatives

[Flash]

These Moon Bats are tickled pink that the Democrats stole the 2020 election but not having a secure election process will come back and bite them in the ass one of these days.

Laws are there to protect the innocent. If it's only your opinion that they were breaking the law you have no good reason to make them public. They could rightly come after you.

The reason could be to identify them so that law endorsement could arrest them.

Seems like a good reason. How could they “come after you” rightly or otherwise?

They could sue you for using their likeness without permission and if accompanied by derogatory comments, like "Everybody be on the lookout for this guy and don't let him near your azaleas because I just know he peed on mine", it could be defamation of character or slander or things like that.

Andy Ngo sends his thanks! His undercover work exposing you fascists can continue then!

Who would have thought the Left would ever go against a gay Asian man? Then again, they beat the crap out of Blacks who don’t agree with them.

It would only be grounds for a lawsuit if you were using their picture for commercial or exploitative purposes.

Since that’s not what we are talking about, seems you’ve meandered off topic.

Dunno. If it’s a video of people breaking the law, I’m less concerned about having the lawbreaker’s permission.

Like out of context snippets that only show a fraction of an event? How irresponsible of you.

I guess I wonder what context we need for the mob changing “hang Mike Pence”?

For example Andy Ngo has posted a lot photos of Leftist ‘protests’ to show exactly what these people stand for and are up to.

So Twitter NAZIs tried to stop him.
And now they’ve learned they drank their own poison.


Twitter acknowledged on Friday that a new policy it unveiled this week to protect users from harassment is being abused by malicious actors — days after journalists, left-wing activists and self-described “sedition hunters” reported their accounts had been locked for sharing publicly available images of anti-maskers, anti-vaccine protesters and suspected Capitol insurrectionists.

The acknowledgment highlights how Twitter has been caught flat-footed by what it described in a statement as “a significant amount of coordinated and malicious” activity that led to “several errors” in Twitter’s enforcement.
“We’ve corrected those errors and are undergoing an internal review to make certain that this policy is used as intended — to curb the misuse of media to harass or intimidate private individuals,” Twitter said.

Unveiled on Tuesday, Twitter’s new policy prohibits the sharing of images of private individuals without those people’s consent. The rule was created, Twitter initially said, in a bid to prevent its platform from being abused to harass and intimidate people, particularly women, activists and minorities.

But right-wing groups and anti-mask activists have quickly determined that the new Twitter policy offers an opportunity to strike back at those who might draw attention to their real-world identities. And in a matter of days, they established a coordinated campaign to flood Twitter with complaints that left-wing activists, Jan. 6 investigators and journalists covering rallies have published their faces without consent in violation of the new rule.

In January, Samuel Braslow was covering an anti-mask protest at a Los Angeles mall for the Beverly Hills Courier, the 56-year-old local newspaper where he is a staff reporter. During the public event, Braslow tweeted a video of a standoff between anti-maskers and a mall official — a common practice in the age of digital reporting.
Braslow couldn’t have known that, this week, someone would file a report about that same photojournalism and cause Twitter to lock down his account. The complaint led to Braslow being unable to tweet until he either successfully appealed the report or deleted the old tweets. He was stuck.

Right-wing activists are openly 'weaponizing' Twitter's new private media policy

No leftist thought Twitter's rules were aimed only at conservatives.

Leftists know that both the left and conservatives are despised by liberals.

Confusing liberals with the left is like thinking Nazis were Jewish.

Ask Rittenhouse about context, no doubt all those media idiots will be concerned when the lawsuits are settled.

 

[Lesh]

Fuck it.

We'd all be better if everyone deleted their twitter account.

Useless garbage

 

[Resnic]

Is this another instance where we can say “we told you so”?

Look at everything that has happened this year and you have an example of that pretty much.

The current administratiion is pretty much becoming a advent calendar for all of 2021 for Republicans where everyday the little window is opened and there is a picture of a republican saying "we told you so".

There’s no such thing as a middle now. You’re either a Constitution hating abortion loving baby killer or you’re the opposite. There’s zero mixing of agendas by either side.

There has never been a middle.

This country is INCREDIBLY conservative, and completely controlled by a psychopathic permastate.

It has always been this way.

You’re either a Constitution hating abortion loving baby killer or you’re the opposite.

This is a false dichotomy.

There’s zero mixing of agendas by either side.

The permastate's agenda is all that matters; everything else is divisive distraction.

 

[daveman]

RWNJs abusing the rules for personal gain? And you think this is new for some reason?

"HEY NO FAIR USING THE RULES WE DEMANDED AGAINST US"

Leftists are such petulant children.

 

[daveman]

The rule will be changed. No big deal. Enjoy the trolling while it lasts.

Using the established rules is not trolling.

 

[daveman]

Conservatives answer is to nationalize Twitter. Fucking idiots.

That was the voices in your head.
