Twitter bans Donald Trump, suffers backlash
The suspension of Donald Trump by social media platforms has taken the world by storm. Leaders all over the world, together with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, have condemned the suspension by Twitter and known as it ‘problematic’.
There is a rising consensus that the actions have been motivated by political bias slightly than any goal criterion. Amidst such a state of affairs, Twitter shares stumbled by as a lot as 10% on Monday. Under such circumstances, the exact justification provided by Twitter for suspending Donald Trump from the platform went largely unnoticed.
And because it seems, the justification cited by Twitter is totally weird and even Twitter doesn’t say that they’ve interpreted Trump’s tweets as incitement to violence. Twitter doesn’t say that in any respect. Instead, the social media platform claims that two of Trump’s tweets are being “interpreted” to imply an endorsement of violence. That is, Donald Trump has been banned from the platform as a result of how others, unnamed within the assertion, are decoding his tweets.
