Twitter put me in 'time out'...

..for abusing and harassing Jim Jordan, which is puzzling considering Jordan abuses and harasses Biden and Fauci on a daily basis...and I've abused and harassed Trump, MTG and others to a much greater degree, without penalty. Hell, I made up a "Asshole of the Year" certificate for Trump couple years ago, posted it and got by.

I'm wondering if a Twitter member can file a harassment complaint and get some kind of relief from the tormenter?

1. Can you post here some of your comments or back and forth?

You probably dont want to show us who you are on Twitter, but just copy paste?

9. It's really just mild jabbing...'abusive harassment' is a stretch

Nah, DeSantas gets the blame for the 71,000 new cases in one day.

That assumes he's not in jail for helping Trump with the attempted coup d'état.

Jordan...always throwing diversionary BS at the wall, hoping something will stick.

Hey Jordan, you going for a contempt charge or just weasel out with the 5th?

No legitimate oversight going on with the Committee? If an attempted coup d'état isn't a legitimate point to investigate, what is?

70% of the population vaccinated, schools open, unemployment 4%, 6M new jobs, child poverty cut 50%, strong GDP...

..and the 'surging inflation' is pandemic driven. Trump can take a little credit for that.

4. You can complain to Twitter, but they have the right to put anyone in "time out".

As someone else noted, you were probably targeted by right wingers who ganged up & reported one of your tweets.

My advice is to look through the replies to your tweets & block everyone who is making negative insulting comments. They are probably the ones who are reporting you. If you block them they won't see your tweets, & won't be able to report you.

I rally don't give two shits about any disciplinary from a social network.

I'm not any kind of rock star at Twitter...the few replies I get are positive.

6. Yes my friend, the RW nutjobs reported you on Twitter

It has no relation to what YOU said vs. what HE said.

Because they will never take offense to anything Jim Jordan says ever. So, it's just you.

Take the hint and stay off Twitter. Spend more time on DU among your own friends.

..just report a post as abuse and a jury comes down with a decision?

I should stay away from Twitter for mental health sake, but I do enjoy abusing and harassing the Trump cult...

16. I don't know because I've never reported anyone

I suppose there have been a few who deserved to be reported.

My favorite way to deal with the unhappy/angry DUers (and there aren't many) is to put them on the Ignore list.

Bullies and cowards are one and the same. I dealt with a few as a kid and adult. If you get in their face, they back down pretty quick.

These two tweets led to my temporary suspension...I tweeted a reply to the second with something like "Jordan hasn't a better idea but he sucker punches Biden and Fauci just the same."

I've decided to resume my abuse and harassment and see if it leads to another time out...the suspension notice says you can 'appeal the decision' which I will do.
