Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greenes congressional Twitter account was suspended Tuesday after apparently being swept up in a platform-wide crackdown on posts referencing a so-called Trans Day Of Vengeance protest in the wake of a Nashville school shooting carried out by a transgender former student. The far-right lawmaker shared a screenshot from her personal Twitter account, which remains active, showing that her government account was hit with a seven-day ban for violating Twitters rules on violent speech. In the offending tweet, Greene (R-Ga.) shared an image of a poster promoting an April 1 protest organized by group called Our Rights DC that seeks to Stop Trans Genocide. The Georgia Republican accused Twitter of trying to whitewash violence promoted by far-left groups on social media. In the wake of a transgender shooter targeting a Christian school and murdering kids, every American should know the threat of Antifa-driven trans-terrorism. Twitter should not whitewash the incitement of politically motivated violence, Greene wrote in a tweet Tuesday. Restore my account immediately, Greene demanded in another tweet, tagging Twitter CEO Elon Musk and head of Trust and Safety Ella Irwin.

Irwin had noted to another user earlier on Tuesday that Twitter had to automatically sweep our platform and remove >5000 tweets /retweets of this [Trans Day of Vengeance] poster. We do not support tweets that incite violence irrespective of who posts them. Vengeance does not imply peaceful protest. Organizing or support for peaceful protests is ok, Irwin added. Greene sparked outrage on the platform Monday over a post that wasnt removed by Twitter, which suggested that hormone therapy could be to blame for the Nashville school shooting.

threat of Antifa

the irony is wonderful

damn. I hoped coming in, that she had been suspended from her job

Oh, of course she was suspended for retweeting a poster organizing a protest by trans activists instead of the *gestures at everything*

What a dumb fucking bitch

The suspension happened a couple hours ago. She only has her alt account left where she complained to the admin about it.

No, it was a real thing being promoted by an activist group. Literally the only reason Ol' Musky suspended right wing garbage bitch MTG is because twitter was moderating the protest and she happened to retweet it.

Trans day of vengeance is a community concept that arose as a result of trans day of remembrance. It in no way entails getting revenge for the societal abuses trans people suffer on a daily basis. Rather, it's a way for the community to vent their frustrations with how increasingly fascist the world seems to be growing and how they're being punished for simply existing. After all, nearly every trans person has at least several trans friends who are deceased. So generally the posts about it are by people talking about transphobic stuff the community is facing. And this year has already had more anti trans bills submitted than all previous years combined. So feelings are running pretty intense this year as we approach a day of remembrance.

Much more common though is "trans day of pizza" which coincides with the trans day of remembrance. The basic premise being that allies or other trans people who can afford to do so buy trans friends pizza because it's one of those things that many people in America enjoy but can't necessarily afford the luxury of. And on such a day as trans day of remembrance, there is something to be said for having a little luxury to remember that life isn't all bad.

Naturally, bigots like MTG have zero self awareness or concept of nuance so they'll misinterpret anything into whatever they want to make some faux outrage statement so as to push their genocidal rhetoric.

She's suspiciously quiet on the 99% of shootings committed by cis people daily and how it may expose cisgenderism as a violent, politically-driven agenda

Typically if it's a cis white male they play the sympathy card. "We failed this man. We need to do better" and all that shit.

And it's always emphasized that the shooter was a lone wolf, an isolated incident. But get a handful of queer and leftist shooters and suddenly some entire ideology needs to be immediately stamped out of America.

Gotta remember not to politicize the tragedy when it's a white nationalist killer who had MAGA posts all over their Facebook and twitter.

Wait - are you saying Elon shouldn't be criticized for anything because of this?
