Does this qualify as a mean tweet?

Yes, that would be mean.

Well, given big tech’s political leanings - this is fine, but anything a conservative says isn’t okay. There is no greater hypocrisy we see played out daily as this sort of stuff……..and our politicians do nothing.

Why, it’s exactly what the Democrat want and the Republicans sit on their hands because they are likely bought off.

You're not on twitter, are you? Otherwise you'd know.

You get a warning page when you type something like the above and hit the tweet button. It gives you the option to edit it or send it anyway. And if you send it, you risk getting your account blocked for a period of time. If you have repeat violations, eventually your account can be banned for good.

I've gotten blocks for at least a day on a couple of occasions for name calling, similar to this place basically.

I'm not sure it's so much a warning as a reminder that you are about to post something offensive. I am likely to be much ruder then than here and I have yet to be blocked for any period of time. Maybe I've just never bothered reading what it says in its entirety.

I think it depends if someone reports your tweet. Most of your tweets won't be seen by that many people if you're like me...I don't have many followers.

Ruben should have a right to tweet his view of Cruz without censorship.

But that seems to only apply to Ruben and other dems.

It should apply across the board, right?

Of course. I’m saying this even though I totally think Ruben is off base
