Forums - Politics Discussion - Twitter statement reveals why it won't ban Trump over his controversial tweets

I have no issue at all with Twitter not banning Trump but this statement is just way for them to cover their back since they ban people left and right for way less offenses. Very apporiate of them to adress this issue AFTER Trump became president :).

imo it shows what he thinks

There.

That wasn't my first post on this thread. And the "movement speaches" is something about random posters? Nope those are mouthpieces of some progressive movements.

By initial, I meant the first post I responded to.  And I've honestly never heard the term movement speeches, nor does a google or dictionary search yield any relevant usages, so I can't be expected to know what you mean by that.

Way to put a spin on "You can't threaten violence on our platform"

Governments can legally engage in violence, individuals cant. Different standards, Trump represents a government.

What he is saying is against the terms of service. Anyone else would be banned. If anything he is getting special treatment.

Like the verified users who say stuff like "kill white people"?

You should report them.

It's his personal twitter account that is threatening violence. Anyway, we're not talking about anything legal, we're talking about a private company and their terms of service.

Usually limited to ineffectual ALL CAPS abuse... 



I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that Trump is basically keeping Twitter alive at this point.

Ok for the initial, miss comunication.

You couldn't associate movement speeches with the major representatives of a movement speaking in the name of it? But ok. My bad if I was unprecise.

That is indeed and sadly true. Government retain the monopoly over violence. And to the answer gave to you, Trump currently is the maximum representative of the govern, but surely Twitter isn't mandated to keep his account and allow him to break ToS because of it.
