This is fundamentally absurd. @sluggahjells - a verified journalist, just had his account disabled by Twitter AFTER an anonymous account FOUND HIM, began harassing him, and he responded with this. He called the man a moron and got suspended. RESPOND @TwitterSafety & @Jackpic.twitter.com/9QX9WDRzBX

  Hey @Jack how can you still be getting this so wrong? After ten years? What are @TwitterSafety meetings like? “Let’s combat harassment! We’ll start by punching down on this journalist for mildly defending himself, and spare his attacker.”

  I’d imagine @twitter look like this when they get to suppress a journalist. Meanwhile Trump allowed to post hate speech almost daily... pic.twitter.com/mszXFKTGOx
