Earlier today Elon Musk said that my ban was temporary, 45 min later he denied my appeal to reinstate my account and confirmed that I am *permanently* banned. The email I just received says the decision cannot be reversed.
I have never once violated Twitters rules or terms of service. I’ve never had a single tweet flagged, my account was permanently banned with no warning and with no reason, after I reached out to Musk for comment.

@taylorlorenz and apparently it's because of this lady's tweet complaining about an NYT article you wrote in 2020?

@parkermolloy @taylorlorenz ah, in that case let’s see their response to Mike Cernovich having doxed me on Twitter.

@anildash @taylorlorenz it's been so wild to watch weird right-wing people on Twitter being like, "Ah ha! Not so fun when the shoe's on the other foot!" as if his "I'm suspending anyone I don't like" attitude is at all comparable to period management.

@anildash @taylorlorenz er, previous management.

I wonder how many of them have truly internalized the nonsense narrative that Twitter was "censoring conservatives" and actually, somehow, believe that libertarian Jack Dorsey was sitting around banning (his fellow) conservatives for no reason.

@parkermolloy @anildash @taylorlorenz lumping in Jack Dorsey with “fellow conservatives” is about as reasonable as lumping you in with Joe Manchin.

@diocletian @parkermolloy @taylorlorenz ah, really? Because I think it’s accurate and I’ve known him for about 17 years. What about you?
Show threaddiocletianDec 18, 2022
@anildash @parkermolloy @taylorlorenz I’ve known him personally for about as long as you’ve known Manchin personally, I imagine.

“granted, we are arguing about someone I don’t personally know and you DO, but on the other hand, I mentioned a second person NEITHER of us know, so … checkmate?”

@Randbot @anildash @parkermolloy @taylorlorenz nice try, but, when someone says “X is like Y” (which is what I did), personally knowing one but the not the other doesn’t really give you a leg up since the comparison, being, you know, a comparison, involves both. That was my point. Hope this helps.
