Daylight saving time ending caused all of this. That’s why we’re doing away with it. You will adjust as the months pass. Hang in there. Now, excuse me as I enjoy this lovely Friday night.

Impersonation has been against policy on Twitter nearly since it's inception. Parody is allowed with certain requirements.

Wait, are you telling me that enforcement of website guidelines and terms of service is not in fact an infringement on free speech?

A private website? WTF are you talking about?

My problem with Twitter before was that they would only selectively enforce their rules which would favor liberals over conservatives. They also deceptively shadow banned users or banned them on false accusations. There was nothing unconstitutional about it. It was just obviously very one sided and probably caused a lot of people to stay off the platform.

The sad thing about this whole Twitter mess is that Twitter could be a great source of actual news.  But the trolls and bots just keep getting in the way.

I don’t think social media, as a whole, is good for actual news

Good, so we're clear enforcing terms of service has nothing to do with free speech.

If done right, it could be.  It's just not done right.
