Twitter Suspends Candace Owens’ Account for Mimicking Sarah Jeong’s Racism, by Alum Bokhari.
Twitter slapped Turning Point USA Communications Director Candace Owens with a temporary suspension after she highlighted racist posts made by Sarah Jeong … The beleaguered platform then reversed the ban, calling it an “error” in an email to Owens.
Owens’ tweets mimicked the wording of Jeong’s, with one important difference: Owens substituted the words “Jewish people” for “white people,” in an attempt to show that some forms of racism are considered more acceptable than others. …
Even though Jeong made the following tweets, she has not been suspended, and the tweets remain undeleted.
Meanwhile, Owens did receive a temporary suspension, as well as an order to delete her tweets, for using precisely the same language as Jeong, swapping “Jewish people” for “white people.” …
“In every way imaginable — Twitter has just proved my point. Racism in this country has been sanctioned against white people.”
The NYT hired a bigot, and defends it, because it is bigoted.
