An🧵explainer of my absence from Twitter for the past 4 days:
Beginning in Jan 2021, @Twitter began flagging random tweets of mine such as me celebrating a 5-mile morning run during Hanukkah, me advocating for $2K stimulus checks, shoveling my driveway after a big snowstorm,

2/ & opposing mansplaining.
On Feb 24, Twitter suspended my account.
I filed an appeal that I hadn’t violated any rules & on March 1, 2021 they reinstated it.
≈ 6 months later it started again. On Aug 22, account was again suspended—my most recent tweets that time were:

This time, Jan 6-7, 2022, Twitter flagged the following tweets for posting private media???
I deleted 1st tweet w/out thinking but appealed 2nd in hopes of avoiding another suspension.
By evening of Monday Jan 10, @Twitter @TwitterSupport still hadn’t responded to my appeal 4/6

On Jan 10, I gave up & deleted the 2nd to get back into my account. My guess is that around every 6mo, juvenile-brained-IDF-sweatshirt-wearing-trolls, mad that public opinion is turning towards Pal rights, report innocuous tweets of mine & claim that selfies of me aren’t me 5/6
If in the next week-month, my Twitter account again gets suspended, this will have been the context. @Twitter @TwitterSupport needs to do better so that apartheid apologists can’t continue to resort to, & be successful at, such juvenile tactics. 6/6
