I commented on a Fauci video where he said every1 will likely eventually be exposed to the virus. I said "and eventually we will all die" which was marked as misinformation and I was cancelled.

Personally, I think this might have been the right decision, though not for the reason given. If you remove accounts of people who frequently do not contribute anything useful to discussions, you'll get overall better discussions.

The same could be said for your contributions, and in my enlightened post-truth regime people like you would be the foundation of my new space program.
You would be enlisted (by force) to be the first astronauts to visit the sun.

I hear you, but have to point out that sending people into the sun is more drastic than merely suspending their accounts.
What I said was true. I challenge any1 to say a more true statement. And I commented it bc he said "we'll all likely eventually be exposed to the virus". That isnt useful information.

You were obviously trolling and Fauci made a meaningful statement in the context. It's sad that you pretend to not see the difference in order not to lose face in front of a pseudonymous internet audience. You deserve to be more honest with yourself.

Is "obvious trolling" on twitter a bannable offence now?

Whats so shocking?
That was on YouTube. This thread is related to Twitter, where you cannot report a tweet for "misinformation".

Yes you can
"Misleading Info Reporting Flow - Some of you can report Tweets for containing misinformation. This is currently available in limited testing to some people in Australia, Brazil, the Philippines, South Korea, Spain, and the US, though we are exploring how to expand. These reports are reviewed and acted on independently from other Tweet reporting flows (e.g. for abuse), as this test flow is used to inform our misinformation-related strategy and operations. "

Thanks; I didn’t know about this.
Your comment was obviously sarcastic. It's wrong to say "Good, I'm glad your bad joke got you canceled". Speech being at the behest of bad AI is no excuse especially in something considered a platform. Twitter is a joke, their auto-moderation showcases how bad their current engineering is.
