Twitter Blocks the Term "Illegal Alien" From Posts - UPDATE: Twitter Backs Down

Twitter blocks posts that use phrase 'illegal alien' as 'hateful content' - The American Mirror

The federal government, U.S. Supreme Court, and lawyers across the country use the word “illegal alien” to describe immigrants who illegally enter the country, because that’s the definition in the law.

But Twitter makes its own laws, and the social media giant is now blocking folks from promoting any messages with the phrase, which its moderators apparently consider “hate speech.”





UPDATE: Twitter Backs Down.

i was shocked when i went to 3 or 4 countries over in europe and they had border security and laws enforcing it. i was also reminded several times that i wasn't a citizen of those countries, asked to show documentation

i was under the impression that only america does that

I think you posted this in the wrong thread. You meant to post in the "Only American Whites are xenophobic" thread that you seem to be implying exists somewhere.




Of course, for the vast majority of both American and European history, White people were able to freely move between all of those countries without documentation. You showed up at the border and signed in, if you even had to cross at an official crossing at all. It was only during the last 100 years, when non-White people began immigrating in meaningful numbers, that prior approval began becoming necessary and quotas against certain nations were set.

So they're not even blocking the tweets, they just aren't taking money to promote tweets they don't like.

The typical snowflakes are triggered.



Obviously it hasn't banned the word since you just tweeted it, smart guy.






An entire movement with the argumentative powers of eight-year-olds.

white racism towards non white immigrants exists. it does not mean that the entire border and citizen laws gets thrown out the window for the sake of white liberal guilt

This story and the NRA complaining about the diversity in a children TV show is proof that conservatives are the biggest snowflakes out there.

Based on some responses and smilies, one could come to the conclusion that it's even...disappointing to certain posters

I feel like I need to reference the "Cac Mamba playbook" thread. Which number was "completely ignores provided evidence to do nothing more than restate his position"?

Like I already said, until less than 100 years ago those particular border laws did not exist. They were explicitly created due to fear of non-White immigration. That does not mean that "the entire border and citizen laws gets thrown out the window", but the idea that you bar people from exerting their freedom of movement to find employment simply because you don't like the race/nation they come from IS racist and pointless, and just a little bit of historical education would teach you that it is very recent and clearly unnecessary.

Maybe this will explain it better for you:

again, i havent denied that white racism plays a part in resistance to illegal immigration, and laws. i reject this latent assertion from the left that citizenship and border laws shouldn't be enforced because of it

go read one of the fukkin horror stories from people in these southern states who get injured and their car totaled by these illegals who are driving around with no license and no insurance. go read one of Napoleon's threads that detail the adverse effects that a mass influx of illegal labor has on citizens that are already here. it doesn't have anything to do with their fukkin skin color

I'm just going to keep ignoring your repeated Red Herrings and Strawmen. Either reply to an argument someone has actually made or STFU. Your constant dishonest posting strategies are annoying as hell.

The blindness.

Why do you think poor white trash driving around drunk have license/insurance and the illegal immigrants don't? Because stupidly designed immigration laws with racist intent keep them from being able to access those things.

Get rid of the dumb laws, and the "illegals" will suddenly have license and insurance at the same rate as legal immigrants and poor white folk and you won't have this problem anymore.
