The way he framed that is the real crime.

Exactly what I was thinking. It deserves better and to stay in its theme it should’ve build out of Lego.

The real crime was saying “a lego”, this psychopath should never be allowed near a computer again!

The real crime is to be proud of the most overused joke on the internet.

by clicking Delete, you acknowledge that your tweet violated Twitter Rules.

That’s some real manipulative shit.

Facebook does the exact same thing, and I think so does YouTube. I never delete it, ban me if you want but I will not change into this bland shell of a human being they’re trying to convert us all into.

I don’t think that’s manipulative. Maybe it should be stated more clearly, but it concisely expresses the idea. If you refuse to play by the rules of the website, you’re not welcome on that website. It gives you the option to say “You’re right, I violated the rules - let’s delete this, bring me into compliance, and I can continue using the site.”. The alternatives are that you disagree on the post breaking the rules, or that you disagree with the rules - in those cases, the website chooses the rules and what they mean, and if you refuse to comply with the rules, it doesn’t want you.

What I don’t know is it Twitter has a way to appeal this instead, for when the website moderation makes a mistake. I’m also not commenting on whether the rules are reasonable or not, but I personally like that you get a way to affirm if you didn’t mean to break the rules.

I tweeted at Trump and got banned… I refused to delete it so my account is lost.

@realDonaldTrump What a fucking douchebag you are. FUCK OFF. Can’t wait till you are locked up and I hope you die in jail. #TraitorsToAmerica

That got you banned? Put that in the past tense, change the word “hope” to “glad” - and you’ve got yourself a damn fine obituary to save for later.
