As reported by The Huffington Post:
New rules implemented on Twitter Monday have led to the suspensions of accounts belonging to prominent neo-Nazis, white nationalists and other far-right extremists.
[...] "You may not make specific threats of violence or wish for the serious physical harm, death, or disease of an individual or group of people," states Twitter's rule for "violent extremist groups," which went into effect Monday.
"This includes, but is not limited to, threatening or promoting terrorism," the rule continues. "You also may not affiliate with organizations that – whether by their own statements or activity both on and off the platform – use or promote violence against civilians to further their causes."
[...] The "alt-right ― a loose association of neo-Nazis, white nationalists, assorted racists, fascists, and other far-right elements that has used Twitter for years to organize and recruit ― anticipated today's "purge," with many preparing to make the jump to Gab, a largely rules-free micro-blogging platform used primarily by white nationalists.

So don't bitch about it, join Operation Tittietwister. If you still have a live twitter account you log in, pick someone, prog, cuck republican, random cat lady, doesn't matter, and start keyword searching their timeline. The new rules don't have a time limit so find where they post something that could possibly be objectionable. Hint: almost every user has. Then REPORT THEM. The only solution is to double down, make them ban thousands and thousands of accounts. Overwhelm their ability to task upper level peeps to the reports and let low level contract minions have to ban or suspend. Btw, this op is currently ongoing and is actually bearing fruit. Some are working solo, others are brigading to mass report targeted accounts. Make everyone terrified to post for fear of being banned.
Another op is gearing up to wage lawfare on twitter's users and advertisers. Since they are now openly bigoted against identifiable groups of users AND openly political there are many options for lawfare here. Government agencies with twitter accounts? Oh hell no, there are laws against that! Do you know you are advertising on a bigoted platform?
