I was just on Twitter, and I tried to "follow" someone and suddenly a box pops up and says I'm in violation of their "follow limit policy." Apparently I cannot like, follow, or retweet someone for three days. I'm like, fuck you, Twitter! I'm aware I've probably been shadow banned on them for a long time after I came back from a long internet hiatus (they shut down the library from March to June, if I recall) and decided to make my "non-political" Twitter account political, because I couldn't just sit there and post cute animals and not say *something* about the train wreck that's going on around us. So I sacrificed my lighthearted nature-and-animal-loving, vegan-promoting platform to anti-masking and #scamdemic tweets, and what do you know, they pull this shit. I think I'll focus on more spiritual work. That's more powerful anyway.

Did a quick search about shadow-banning:
"The best way to find out if you've been shadowbanned is to check if your posts appear in hashtag searches. To do this, create a new post on Instagram and include 2-3 unpopular hashtags in the caption, and another 2-3 unpopular hashtags in the first comment."

So glad I didn't join Twitter, Facebook, Instagram et al...My blood pressure is also grateful.
Hi, greencrow! Twitter is more in tune with my somewhat ADHD mentality than writing long blog posts, but I need to start developing some mental discipline. Besides, this is the second time those guys pissed me off ... they blocked me from my political account, and I was like, fine, I'll just post fun stuff and read the more serious stuff for blog ideas. But like I said, I couldn't just ignore this scamdemic that threatens us all at a personal level. And if they are going to censor people over that ... fuck you, Twitter.
