Twitter Files show employees intentionally censored Libs of TikTok

Elon Musk has finally revealed the truth that we knew all along: Twitter conspired to suspend Libs of TikTok half a dozen times despite the fact that I never actually violated any rules.

Bari Weiss exposed the coordination Thursday night in the second Twitter Files drop, showing clear evidence that Libs of TikTok was not only on visibility blacklists but that senior employees chose to suspend my account knowing that I did not violate policy.

16. One of the accounts that rose to this level of scrutiny was @libsoftiktok—an account that was on the “Trends Blacklist” and was designated as “Do Not Take Action on User Without Consulting With SIP-PES.”

Each time I was suspended, Twitter claimed I violated their “hateful conduct policy,” even though my content is simply reporting news and reposting crazy content from the Left.

18. Twitter repeatedly informed Raichik that she had been suspended for violating Twitter’s policy against “hateful conduct.”

As exposed in the Twitter Files, Twitter’s top executives, Vijaya Gadde, Jack Dorsey, and Yoel Roth, acknowledged that Libs of TikTok “has not directly engaged in behavior violative of the Hateful Conduct Policy” but chose to suspend me anyways. The reason? They claimed that my tweets “indirectly violated” Twitter’s policies. In other words, I engaged in wrongthink. My posts violated the most sacred rule of all: You’re not allowed to expose the radical Left.

19. But in an internal SIP-PES memo from October 2022, after her seventh suspension, the committee acknowledged that “LTT has not directly engaged in behavior violative of the Hateful Conduct policy." See here:

20. The committee justified her suspensions internally by claiming her posts encouraged online harassment of “hospitals and medical providers” by insinuating “that gender-affirming healthcare is equivalent to child abuse or grooming.”

I never violated any policies yet was silenced for reporting the truth. Leftist activists and the Media used my suspensions as justification for the “stochastic terrorism” allegation they keep making against me. Turns out Twitter admitted we never even violated policies. We simply report news. All those media activists who claimed my reporting was “hateful” got that narrative from Twitter. I never violated the rules.

While it’s a huge win that Elon Musk has exposed the deliberate censorship and is working to make Twitter the public square it was meant to be, none of my work would be possible without your support. Libs of TikTok is trying to expand our team with new researchers, writers, and support staff and we need your help to do it. The best way you can help is by becoming a paid subscriber to my Substack below since we were recently banned from our merch fulfillment service (more on that tomorrow).

I can’t get back the month or so that I was suspended for, but I will continue to work day and night to expose the radical Left and their agenda of targeting children.
