One story only. A personal share.
I’ve Been Suspended from X
I reposted a tweet of minor importance as an item in an update. I haven’t been able to locate it and don’t remember exactly what it said.
But it triggered X and they suspended me for it.
It wasn’t a battle I wanted to fight so I agreed to the deletion of the offending tweet. However, X interpreted that as me having agreed that the tweet was offensive. And I received the following notice:
I hadn’t intended that. But either way, I’m too busy to fight a censorship battle until the shoe pinches more. Then in comes the third notice.
Now I’ve been suspended for a week, rather than 7 hours and 33 minutes.
Who cares? I have no time to fight it and I see that Truth Social offers a similar reposting package.
If I didn’t know what was coming down the pike, I’d feel offended. But all of this is going away and I can wait. A skill I’ve picked up over the last dozen years.
Let me follow Michael’s advice on this one:
Archangel Michael: You have an expression upon your planet about choosing your battles. It is an expression that has been stolen from me, sweet one. (1)
I don’t choose this battle.
