Do you think Twitter did the right thing?
Vote
The US Army Captain posted a photo on Independence Day of himself saluting and the phrase "Freedom isn't Free" with his facial injuries that said "On July 4, 1776, America was born. Only July 4, 2021, we're still the best country on this planet" While the tweet wasn't restricted, his photo was slapped with a warning as a twitter spokesperson told Dailymail it was marked as sensitive beause of the media settings of the USER, not because of any action on the part of twitter Twitter users can mark their own tweets as containing material that may be sensitive But the Republican blasted the social media giant accusing of CENSORING his tweet and his image given he had just announced his intentions to run for Senate and said "Hey @twitter, i didn't realize my face was sensitive content. Ironic considering i only have 3 tweets and just filed to run for U.S Senate only hours ago. Was it my scars or the fact that i salute the flag? Regardless, neither are going away and neither am i. While i was ready to lay down my life in order to protect freedom of speech for my fellow Americans, Big Tech today decided that they know better, censoring me and deeming my comments regarding this great nation. These egregious and un-american actions come mere hours after i took steps to file and establish my candidacy for the U.S Senate in Nevada, reinforcing my belief that big tech is working against conservatives and trying to silence our voices and now our faces. Everyday i wear the scars of my service and i am still proud to call myself an American. If Twitter thinks they can censor my military service, my love for this country or the flag it represents, they are sorely mistaken. God is my only lord and saviour and he is the only one i answer to. If i win a senate seat, you can bet there will be big changes coming your way"" Twitter has a message regarding sensitive photos and by appropriately marking your media settings, twitter can identify potentially sensitive content that other users may not wish to see, such as violence or nudity. Brown suffered 3rd degree burns to 30% of his body in an IED blast a few months into deploymentin 2008 during a routine security check in Kandahar. He is now running for Senate hoping to oust the Democrat once held by Harry Reid as Castro narrowly defeated Joe Heck in 2016. Brown ran in the House of Representatives in 2014 but was defeated in the primary. He was awarded a purple heart and livse with his wife and 3 children who own a small business providing services to vetrans. He's a big supporter of president Trump and wants the wall built and to cut social services that waste tax dollars and offers no benefits to anybody Do you think twitter did the right thing by flagging his photo?. https://i.imgur.com/xpxECCo.jpg https://i.imgur.com/3fzCaEJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GAG9rqT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Twyu5ai.jpg https://i.imgur.com/R6SVSt6.jpg https://i.imgur.com/yefA4Sx.jpg https://i.imgur.com/38sdDgy.jpg --- The Users have Spoken.

That's perfectly consistent with flagging injuries as sensitive content, recognizing that many people would prefer not to see such images. The photos were still fully available for those that choose to see them and/or have turned off those filters; this wasn't a personal attack on his politics or anything like that. Sucks that dude's face qualifies as a gruesome injury, but that's the nature of catastrophic burns.

Sucks that dude's face qualifies as a gruesome injury, but that's the nature of catastrophic burns. Censoring incidents is one thing, censoring the results after the fact is just grossly offensive. Society as a whole used to hide their "undesirables" and that has become unacceptable in recent decades. I may most likely not agree with most of his politics, but he has a right to be seen and heard. --- Official Teetotaller of PotD Dovie'andi se tovya sagain! ... Copied to Clipboard!
