The *******s!

Long story short: Twitter permanantly suspended my last account... because
during the Red Hen™ restaurant publicity kerfluffle after the Red Hen's
owner quite rudely and publicly refused to serve Sarah Hucklebee Sanders'
family, I tweeted a comment directly quoting a !Yelp review where the guy
said "I ate at the Red Hen once and the food was so bad that I had to lick
a dog's turd to get the taste out of my mouth!"

They would NOT allow me to appeal and when I tried to reopen the case they
sent me a boilerplate message which said that my tweet violated their rules
against targeted abuse. Wow, IF that is reasonably perceived as "targeted
abuse" they should be around when I'm grudge-banging one of my girlfriends.

WTF? It was the Red Hen that was doling out nasty food. All I did was
directly quote a funny Yelp! review - and provided a link...

So anyway, I simply opened another account, only I munged my previous
Twitter account name by running my first and last name together instead of
using an underscore to separate the words and I used a fresh unique G-Mail
account, which was never used before or for anything else afterwards... It
had been in dormant existence for several years and NEVER had any spam,
except for the normal rare G-Mail messages.

Suddenly now I am inundated with hundreds of stupid spams, penis
enlargement proffers, brides from Russia, erectile dysfunction without a
prescription, join Tinder, join Grinder, join PETA, join NAMBLA, donate to
Democrats, join a church, join a cult, join the KKK, learn to make bombs,
learn to seduce women, fly for free, cash for your car title, low interest
home refinance... etc., and the usual eMail notices from Twitter that I had
logged into Twitter each time I logged in - maybe a couple of times a day
maximum.

So, I can safely conclude that one of those activist Liberal mental
defectives that habitate California generally and San Francisco
specifically - where all the Twitter employees live - sold my eMail account
to some malicious entity for extra drug abuse money or to support a
subversive organization to which they also belong...

Chances are I'm not the only victim out here in the cyber-verse.

Life's a bitch and then there's Twitter.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes to all for a joyous and safe holiday season! (}o:{~*
