      .@jack, please don’t blame the current state of play on communications. These decisions aren’t easy, but they aren’t comms calls and it’s unhelpful to denigrate your colleagues whose credibility will help explain them 1/4https://twitter.com/jack/status/1026984245925793792 …

      Truth is we’ve been terrible at explaining our decisions in the past. We’re fixing that. We’re going to hold Jones to the same standard we hold to every account, not taking one-off actions to make us feel good in the short term, and adding fuel to new conspiracy theories.

      Also, FWIW I think this is the wrong call. Jones’ behavior isn’t a one-off. Twitter started examining offline behavior as a factor in verification last fall. If your policy doesn’t account for Jones-like activity on/offline then the policy isn’t serving a healthy conversation 2/4

      If I still worked for you I’d have advised you to frame this as a sign that if current Twitter policies permit verified accounts to encourage followers to harass/harm people offline, then the policies aren’t working as intended & Twitter is looking hard at the way forward 3/4

          Designing scalable policy on this is incredibly hard. No company will always get it right. But this is an opportunity to take a stand and commit to making and enforcing hard choices in service of promoting healthy conversation. I hope you revisit this decision. 4/4

          So far NOT ONE accuser, person, media outlet etc has offered any proof that Jones fomented harassment of anyone. Where's your proof? Don't give me some article that has the ability to but does not post video proof of their claims. If it happened the video evidence does exist.

          What you are saying is ridiculous. You want to silence those who have different views. Maybe twitter should delete your account for making such false claims.

          That's a great call out Emily. No one should be harassed, harmed, or bullied yet that is exactly what is happening to conservatives. See @RealCandaceO and @charliekirk11 breakfast. If you are conservative you are considered a Nazi and everything you say is hate speech.

          The left doesnt get it. It is about being Americans and having freedom of speech. We are all equal but they want to shut down what has become the majority in this country. I live in blue state Colorado and you would be amazed how many are #WalkAwayFromDemocrats including myself

          One should not make a claim and offer ZERO evidence to support their claim. You and others have claimed he encouraged harassment and have offered no evidence.

          Of course you were with Obama,that explains your unconstitutional desires to censor opposing viewpoints. This is America and we are becoming strong again. You no longer have the perverted politics of Obama to hide behind. BTW I voted for the liar twice. Voted dem 38s yr, no more

          When did YOU become the queen of all things spoken, the purveyor of all who dare speak? Your uncanny ability to snuff out what you don't like is so very Millennial. Did you get a great big participation trophy for this one, too?

          Then Waters and the rest need to go too. They are advocating harm and hate at anyone that does not agree with the Socialist Dumbocrat agenda .
