#TrustAndSafety: The day Freedom of Expression on Twitter Died.

     It's official, ladies and gentlemen. Freedom of Speech on Twitter is dead. Twitter has created a "Trust and Safety Council" to dictate what is and isn't acceptable behavior on the social media platform. Every single person on that council is a special interest group that seeks to further their own agenda and nothing more. Among them is counter one Anitsa Sarkeesian, who is infamous for attacking gamers over and over again and then screaming "HARASSMENT" when they inevitably fight back. It would seem that if you cry harassment enough that you get invited to twitter to destroy free speech! Twitter has a long history of pandering to the extreme left and political correctness at the expense of their own stocks and value as a company out of fear of being the latest target of the Social Justice Nazi harassment brigade. In a way...poetic. In every way...absolutely despicable. What Twitter has done is give a bunch of people who consider criticism in any form to be harassment the ability to make it harassment. These people all want the same things: to have their ideals go completely unchallenged and for Twitter to be made in to their personal "safe space". For years, ever since the Gamer Gate controversy began, these people have shown over and over again that they want to censor everything they deem "problematic", silence anybody that disagrees with them, and force people in positions of power to give them what they want. And now, Twitter is actually doing it.
     Allow me to explain exactly what is going to start happening. Trust and Safety council gets founded, people complain and express their frustrations at Twitter and everybody involved, and then it just kind of sits there for a while. Waiting. Then, when it all dies down and people think nothing is really going on. Whoops! A well-known figure who openly denounces SJ culture gets banned for "instigating harassment" and "hate speech" and "being problematic". People are going to flip, it's all going to be blamed on the Trust and Safety council, and rightfully so. Then, with all the rage and frustration, the council is going to go to Twitter and say "Look! Look at all these people who are angry! This is all mass harassment! They're from a terrorist group called #GamerGate!". And then over the next several weeks, you're going to start seeing major figures in Gamer Gate get banned. And then less major figures will start getting banned. All for "instigating harassment" regardless of what they actually did. Then you know what will happen? Major right-wing political figures will start to get their twitter presence removed all in the name of "safety". After all! You don't like gay marriage, that makes you problematic! And we can't have ANYBODY that is...problematic... And then what's left? You ever told an SJW to fuck off? Banned. You follow somebody who posts to Gamer Gate who got banned? Banned. You get blocked by Sarkeesian in the past? Banned. Don't like feminism? Banned. Ever said anything that could ever be considered offensive by anybody ever? Banned. Banned, banned, banned, banned. BANNED.

BANNED

     It might take a while. It might not happen for months, maybe a year or two. But this is merely the first step towards total censorship of anything the extreme left doesn't agree with. When you give people who's entire purpose online is to push a political agenda the tools and power to do so...it doesn't matter what their "intentions" are, they will always... ALWAYS abuse their power to ensure that their narrative remains unchallenged. The people on this "Trust and Safety" council are in it for their own sakes. They don't care about anybody unless that person shares political ideals with them. Don't believe me? Just watch. How much you willing to be that if a Social Justice Nazi doxes somebody and sends them death threats...that nothing will happen to them? Oh but God help them if a white christian male who's voting for Donald Trump does it...they'll be banned instantly. "It's okay when WE do it, because we're the RIGHT people doing it for the RIGHT reasons."
