Visibility Filtering 101

So, I finally heard from someone at Twitter about why they have been censoring my tweets with fake “age-restricted adult content” labels and damaging my income and reputation as an author by maliciously deceiving people into thinking I’m some kind of slimy pornographer. So I’m banging out a quick newsletter to fill you in, because I know you’re just dying to hear all the details.

OK, seriously, before you decide that I am about to whine about Twitter for several hundred words, and then dejectedly click away from this newsletter, please stop for just a moment, and consider that what I am about to describe is not just a personal gripe about Twitter that I want to bore everyone to death with, but is basically the template (or one of the templates) for censorship in our “New Normal” world.

Has it EVER been different? I mean we all get why penetration pornography is censored, but has it ever been different for ideas or satire? Its always been bullshit justifications. The totalitarians CAN’T have people make the obvious, clear, and unavoidable connection between the current totalitarian regime/actions and the past ones.

Censorship, whether for “whimsical” reasons or any other reason is anti freedom/liberty.

The world is over run with gate keepers. Surely you’ve seen it for yourself?

The author is basically asking why the beast system is not fair. It is a bit like complaining about the fake voting system, or about the financial system being house of cards. Yes, all these things are true, this is the new normal.

Time to seek alternate means of exposure and income.
