It happened about a day after Elon Musk backed out of his buyout, so I wonder if that emboldened them to keep on banning wrongthink.

I've read a few complaints now of conservative accounts getting targeted after the merger fell through.

There's some Scaley weirdo who's been going around reporting a bunch of (predominantly) gender critical accounts.

I wonder if it's like AHS on reddit, they use software to track people who engage in wrong think and I'm pretty sure engage in weaponized reporting.

They have a massive Google doc of wrong think accounts to report among other methods, TERFBlocker (which I believe has some connection to Aimee Challenor), Shinigami Eyes (whose creator has had sexual assault allegations made against them). Now why would such upstanding people want to silence groups who are more likely to call out predatory behaviour? It really is a mystery

I can confirm that one of my tweets went big time viral in 2021, and I saw a lot of screencaps of it with red text, which indicated that app had flagged me as problematic.
