    All fantastic reasons to discourage posting twitter links, but I stand by my assertion that this kind of censorship is not a good thing.

        Not really.

        It’d be more accurate to say you guys are clamoring to fit in.

            You guys, you people, etc. The people getting mad at me because I dared to stand up for free speech when it’s something unpopular being said.

            I lump them all into one big group because they’re incapable of autonomous thought, just like you.

            Enjoy your block, btw.

      I wouldn’t call that censorship. No spread of information is being restricted anymore so than what Twitter already restricts. Unless you are connected to your Twitter account already, it cannot be seen. The information can and is readily found elsewhere. Is restricting of linking to a platform (who itself is restrictive in who can see the information) censorship alone, ignoring the content?

        No, it’s textbook censorship.

        Just because it’s censoring something you want censored doesn’t mean it’s not censorship.

        It’s sad this has to be spelled out for so many of you, but I really don’t expect more considering the world you’re growing up in.
