They're fighting back. Creating new accounts and appealing this unjust and morally decrepit ban.

We shouldn't be encouraging the social media companies to censor views/people we don't like.

They were banned for making fake accounts, not for being dweebs.

they made twitter socks?  There are twitter socks?  What was their reason/excuse for making them?  Did they know it was against the rules?  How have these questions not been asked?

Apparently, they were banned because they took donations "for supporting anti-Trump political causes" but actually pocketed it for personal use.

They're not mentioned in that article. They never did that.

Twitter is the biggest left wing jerk circle in the history of the internet. It pains me to go on there, but knowing that these bots are seeing justice makes me a bit more happy.

The Krassensteins were shady, but unless they are actually proved to be guilty of grifting then the ban is unfair. They were pretty mainstream and went out of their way to have a broad base for support for their "side."

Can someone on their "side" answer these questions for me?

Almost 2000 years ago, another Jewish man stood up to leaders and the existing power structure. He was smeared and called a liar and grifter too, but pressed on. And in the end the authorities of the day banned him...in a far more harsh way.

Hopefully the Krassensteins have a similar comeback and legacy.

Yes, they totally get to the top reply of every Trump tweet (without being famous for anything other than being the top replies to Trump tweets) completely naturally...

Yet they gave topical replies. So they weren't bots. A human was writing those.

No one's saying they were bots lol. The issue is they are alleged to buy fake likes/RTs/etc (via either bots or click farms) to boost their content.

Which is in violation of Twitter TOS.
