Twitter keeps suspending account critical of Obamacare

Quote
Twitter has repeatedly suspended an account critical of the Affordable Care Act.

The account, @mycancellation, was just getting started when Twitter suspended it—twice—before reinstating the account late Saturday night.

The purpose of @mycancellation or mycancellation.com was to allow some of the millions of Americans who are losing their health insurance to post pictures of themselves with their cancellation letters. “Help us show Washington the faces who lost what they liked,” the account asked. “ObamaCare canceled your health insurance. Now, send us your letter,” the tagline for the website advertised.

Never did Twitter and never will. Leftists infect social media. No wonder why America is so ****ed, the Obama voters are the ones who are more likely to use Twitter.

Well, when you create a system that facilitates communication solely in sound bytes and bumper sticker slogans, don't be surprised when the short attention span/low information types who soak up that kind of shit flock to it.

There are tons of conservatives on Twitter and it's a good source for finding news that doesn't get reported in the media.

And more power to those conservatives who are able to use it.  However, the very point of the article linked to in this thread is that Twitter feels no real compunction over squelching the free speech of conservatives.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Not to mention you get to take on some folks who are probably DU members directly.

And harass DU's twitter account. ;D
