Political views. There were no "violations" of any sort in regards to profanity, threats, racism, etc.. The bulk of the tweets I made were links to news articles and even some posts made here.
Keep in mind that this extends beyond being banned from a platform. With all the data collection and merging with other data sources they are now using your views to deny credit, close your merchant processing accounts, etc.

I can't find the story, but I read the other day a LCHF (low carb high fat) facebook group of 1.5 million members was suddenly deleted. Now the politics has reached what we eat.
It's causing huge problems for weight watchers, jenny craig and other diet advertisers - it's a HUGE revenue generator.
I keep bumping into people I saw a few weeks or months back and they are losing weight, I ask about it, they say that they got the idea from me. This includes a doc I saw the other day so I guess the keto thing is dangerous for FB and others who sell ads to every diet pill/scheme on the planet.

Apparently there is a FB 'hate agents' hit list:

Somebody needs to report this to the White House then.
I've been thinking that rights are like muscles, if you don't exercise them, you lose them. It looks like and I hope I am wrong that a vast majority of people who possess rights are freely squandering them by participating in the FB/Twitter universe. I believe what is happening with those platforms is that they are being used to "train" us to self censor, to abdicate our rights voluntarily.
CrossFit quits Facebook, Instagram, accuses social media giant of censorship, being 'utopian socialists'
https://www.foxnews.com/tech/crossfi...ian-socialistsThe company provided eight “publicly sourced complaints” as the reasons for quitting.
“Facebook collects and aggregates user information and shares it with state and federal authorities, as well as security organizations from other countries,” the first reason read.
“Facebook collaborates with government security agencies on massive citizen surveillance programs such as PRISM,” CrossFit said in the second reason.
“Facebook censors and removes user accounts based on unknown criteria and at the request of third parties including government and foreign government agencies,” it continued.
“Facebook collects, aggregates, and sells user information as a matter of business. Its business model allows governments and businesses alike to use its algorithmically conjured advertising categories as sophisticated data-mining and surveillance tools.”
