My Twitter Was Locked For Pointing Out That Violent Leftist Rhetoric Leads To Leftist Violence

By this point, everyone likely knows about the tragedy that took place in Nashville, TN where a mentally ill woman identifying as a man walked into a Christian school, shooting and killing three adults and three 9-year-olds. It was a senseless and horrific tragedy, but unfortunately not nearly as surprising as it should be. You see, the Left has been inciting, promoting, celebrating, and encouraging violence for quite some time. So it’s only natural that that violent rhetoric would lead to violence. There are several specific examples of this, and I highlighted them on my Twitter with screenshots. And I got locked out of my account for it.

The first suspension came this morning for a tweet I posted in response to another user’s question about what we should learn from this senseless tragedy. I responded with a very common picture of a trans activist holding a sign showing pink, blue, and white rifles positioned horizontally in the color scheme of the trans flag. The sign also says, “Trans rights… or else.” The obvious implication being that we capitulate to their every whim (their version of “rights”) or else they will use rifles against us. It’s essentially a death threat, and it’s become a fairly popular message to tote. It’s on shirts and signs everywhere, even available on Amazon from multiple sellers. My response was essentially that we were supposed to learn that threats like these are not empty. The message of the trans activist is inherently violent, so I’m sure it got swept up in a Twitter algorithm cleaning house after a heinous act of violence. MY post wasn’t violent, nor was it calling or advocating for violence, so luckily, they overturned the suspension on appeal when a human read my explanation of that fact.

It took several hours for them to approve my appeal and as soon as they did, I clicked to navigate to my Twitter account, at which time I was immediately locked out again for three more offending tweets. The three new tweets were very similar to the initial offending tweet. The first included a screenshot of a poster by a trans activism organization calling for a “day of vengeance” on April 1st and giving details for a gathering on that day. With the screenshots, I said, “Wow, would you look at that. Trans activist organization calls for ‘vengeance’ and then a trans man shoots up a school, almost as if they were called to action.” The poster itself was inherently violent, literally calling for a “day of vengeance,” and my comment points out that they called for action and someone responded. I get how it get swept up by the algorithm even though my suspension for this post is inappropriate.

The second was a response to a large commentary account called Cernovich. I don’t remember what his exact question was but it had to do with media framing the perpetrator as the real victim of bigotry and persecution and simply turning to justified but tragic violence to validate their existence. I responded by saying, “Better for the narrative than blaming Leftist activists overtly calling for violence.” I included the screenshot mentioned above of the trans “day of vengeance” poster, as well as a screenshot of Jane Fonda on The View suggesting that activists should murder people who have conservative Christian values and opinions. Again, both of the screenshots are inherently violent and inciting violence for Leftist activist cases. But I wasn’t being violent, nor was I inciting violence. I was simply pointing out that the Left is allowed to routinely promote and incite violence, so we shouldn’t be surprised when Leftists take their call to violent action seriously.

The final tweet was again the trans “day of vengeance” poster screenshot where I simply said, “The date was aptly chosen,” referring to the irony of them choosing April Fools Day to act a fool. I had actually posted this on March 22nd, several days before the Nashville tragedy. But again, the poster is inherently violent by calling for “vengeance,” so I get it that the algorithms swept it up.

The issue is that all this content has been allowed to exist freely until a mentally ill trans individual shot up a school. The activist wearing the gun shirt and saying “or else,” the trans “day of vengeance” poster, and Jane Fonda’s suggestion to murder people have all been on social media before the Nashville massacre, and that’s the problem. The Left is allowed to flagrantly and overtly call for violence against those who hold different opinions and values than them, but it isn’t until they answer those calls for violence that people care to remove them? Where was the outrage when Jane Fonda went on national television on a major news network and encouraged murder?! Where was the outrage when trans activists started wearing shirts showing guns in a thinly veiled threat against anyone who dares to oppose them? Where was the outrage when a trans activism group organized and promoted an event that is specifically intended to include “vengeance” against their ideological opponents? Why did 6 people have to die before anyone cared that Leftists were quite literally calling for someone to murder Christian conservatives?

Anyway, I’m still waiting to see if they accept my appeal for the latest three offending tweets. Who knows how many more they’ll find once they finally unlock my account for me.
