Fellow twitting DUers, time to protest. Please

[question everything]

Twitter says it won't suspend Louis Farrakhan over tweet comparing Jews to termites

I know that there are many here so, please, do protest.

Otherwise we are on the road described by father Martin Niemöller:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

1. what do I do on twitter to complain?

Thanks for posting this.

[question everything]

2. I don't twit, but I went to their official site

and there is a link to Contact Us

https://help.twitter.com/en/contact-us

and one of the choices is to report abusive behavior.

I think this should be a start.

3. First step is to report the tweet.

Go to the Farrakhan tweet (make sure it is the Farrakhan tweet - and not the one quoting the Farrakhan tweet).

In the upper right corner of the tweet there is a drop-down arrow for "more." Select "Report Tweet," and just keep answering each screen of questions as they appear. The last screen is a bit confusing, because you have the option to add additional tweets. But to report just this tweet, click the "add 1" button.

Nearly all of the tweets I've reported have been at least temporarily removed. (There has to be an appeal process, since some of them have returned)
Virtually all of them return some form of this message:

An update on your report
Thanks again for letting us know. Our investigation found this account violated the Twitter Rules:

I can only recall one response that said, in essence, you're being too sensitive.
