Isn't it nice to see campaign/gov operatives looking for ToS violations throughout the whole internet... oh, was it only when it made them look bad, you say? I wonder if as such goody two shoes they tattled on themselves and self-reported their own ToS violations.

Biden wasn’t in the White House in 2020?

Campaign staff reporting tweets that made him look bad seems… fairly pedestrian?

There’s far more egregious examples of bad behavior out there than this.

Sorry, what “own violations?”

And the original sarcasm: you are upset that an employee is reporting violating content that concerns their employer? I didn’t realize that if you click the report button on the post, you must have 10 degrees of separation from it, otherwise it’s untoward.

Are you aware of how almost all content moderation on the public-facing web works?

And wait, “throughout the whole internet”? I missed the part when Twitter became the sole TLD and its vast expanse meant any violating content found must surely have been discovered by time-consuming and pain-staking methods. Or maybe a reverse image search and a few interns can find some violating content that hadn’t been flagged yet on one single website.

Enough with the indignation and false accusations.
