We didn’t suspend Alex Jones or Infowars yesterday. We know that’s hard for many but the reason is simple: he hasn’t violated our rules. We’ll enforce if he does. And we’ll continue to promote a healthy conversational environment by ensuring tweets aren’t artificially amplified.

In this tweet,
@Jack demonstrates to the world that he has no idea how propaganda works. Maybe if Alex Jones spread his hate message in machine code, Jack would finally get it. - 1 more reply

I'm going to make this clear You may be bright as far as strategic alignments, software developing, possibly coding But, where you fall short is that you have the emotional intelligence of a pine cone These justifications for weaponizing targeted harrassment is bullsh*t

Hand him a bullhorn and insist it’s the media’s job to fix it. How nice for the families who have been harassed after losing their children.

I wonder if you would feel differently if someone had murdered your kindergarten child and then a 3rd party used a platform to incite people to harrass YOU (not the perpetrator) mercilessly.

Not to mention that asking journalists to fact check and discredit what is patently and obviously false and toxic is a massive cop out. Especially while all the financial benefit accrues to you.

The fact that u have 4M followers & less than 10k likes to this post shud tell u that your opinion on journalists shud do their job more is just irresponsible. W.R.T alex jones & his conspiracies there were millions of articles who refuted his substance & U did nothing. Man up.

If Alex Jones’ treatment of the Sandy Hook families doesn’t qualify as abusive harassment, I’m absolutely sure you
@Jack don’t understand the meaning of those words. And your statement above - a textbook cop out. Bystanders are the reason our democracy is in peril. It’s on you.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

HE.CALLED.FOR.CIVIL.WAR. Incitement of violence. He attacked grieving parents and incited others to as well. I'm surprised the parents haven't sued the platforms that allowed this. But it causes conversation, which is all good business for you, eh,
@jack.

So
@jack, with this tweet you actually proved how wrong you are. Millions of people have read your tweet & only a fraction of them read the countless reactions how wrong you are. You probably won’t read this. But hey, I’m still writing it, for the public conversation, you know.https://twitter.com/jack/status/1026984249960755200 … - 1 more reply

YOU have a responsibility, as a media organization (which you are, no matter how hard you wish otherwise), to concern yourself with the truth. The notion that you must remain simple a passive channel is ludicrous when the damage that's being done is so clear to see.

Didn’t you say something yesterday about “continuing to promote a healthy conversational environment”. Where does “spreading unsubstantiated rumors” fit in to that vision?

So when those people call for the deaths of news anchors therefore silencing the correct information permanently that’s ok with you too?

Suggestion: try having policies (and actually enforcing them consistently) that are tilted in favor of the vulnerable and marginalized. Your so-called neutrality is actually biased in favor of those with power.

How so?

Because it’s based on western/male/white/hetero norms and power structures. It’s like saying people who sound like you don’t have an accent, everyone else does.
