Twitter Support Claims that They Fixed My Account, but They Didn’t. They Are Still Confused with My Complaint.

This is Twitter’s latest reply to my request to have my broken account fixed.

Twitter Support’s response to customer support ticket

This was my reply, which was nearly identical to the first support ticket;

Johnny,

Who informed you that the problem has been resolved?  It has NOT been resolved.  It worked for a few hours; then, it stopped working again.  I will use my band’s Twitter account as an example (again) for how my interactions don’t work with every account with which I attempt to interact.

If I post a reply to another account, (In this case it’s to @FralexNine) I see my tweets on my end.  https://twitter.com/FralexNine/status/1621717848908341249

This is how my replies to others’ tweets looks from my account.

When I log into my band’s Twitter account, I see NOTHING. This happens with every account with which I attempt to interact.  Look at this example, please: https://twitter.com/FralexNine/status/1621717848908341249

This is what other accounts see when I reply to their tweets . . . NOTHING!

Something isn’t right.  I’m in a container or have some kind of restriction on my account and somebody at Twitter knows it.  Please do not close this ticket until Twitter fixes the problem.

I will continue to publicly document my interactions with Twitter Support / Twitter Blue on my blog until SOMEONE with enough clout makes something happen to fix the problem.

This is the blog post that I made last time.  EVERYONE who saw it understood what I was saying to Twitter Support — except for Twitter Support (apparently).  http://www.cyberdurden.com/does-this-explanation-regarding-my-broken-account-to-twitter-support-seem-too-confusing/

Today is literally my birthday.  Would you please just fix this for me?  That would be a perfect present.

Why Won’t Twitter Blue / Twitter Support Remove the Shadow Ban from @CyberDurden’s Account?!

I paid the fucking $11 ransom!

I paid the fucking $11 ransom!

I paid the fucking $11 ransom!

I PAID THE FUCKING $11 RANSOM!

How long does a ghost ban / shadow ban last? I insulted one person over a week ago and even removed the “offensive” tweet.

Why won’t Twitter Blue / Twitter Support work with users?

Why are there massive number of accounts throwing insults and using vulgarity without ever being shadow banned?

Why can’t paying subscribers get actual support?

This is what Twitter Support told me:

No timeframe. No reason for the the ban. (I know which tweet it was, and it wasn’t that bad.)

They just threw me in the “Boo Box.”

Will someone with some clout PLEASE elevate this post?

Does This Explanation Regarding My Broken Account to Twitter Support Seem too Confusing?

My @CyberDurden Twitter account was reinstated — broken. My follower count didn’t repopulate and new followers after reinstatement were automatically unfollowed (without my involvement).

Also, other Twitter users were reporting to me that my replies to their posts were showing as unavailable or not appearing at all. On my end, they looked completely normal.

Example

Twitter Support replied:

I decided to use a Tweet from my @CyberDurden account commenting on my band’s account, @FralexNine.  I will post a link for each and a screenshot for each.  (This happens with any account where I attempt interactions.)

My @CyberDurden account replying to @FralexNine:   https://twitter.com/CyberDurden/status/1620919282279538689?s=20&t=ZXnn7zJP8FkbzW6sloKUrQ

My band’s account, @FralexNine, sees NOTHING from @CyberDurden: https://twitter.com/FralexNine/status/1620919175219924992?s=20&t=tssEJSfNeEidNVw4tbwBqQ

I have had a mutual follower confirm the same with his account.  Nobody replies to my comments, because nobody is seeing them.

I further stated:

I’m not sure how to clarify it more.  My @CyberDurden account is broken.  I am replying to the void.  Tweets are only visible if users come to my page to see them.  If you have an account, that I attempt a reply, you can see for yourself. (unless there is something different about Twitter employees’ accounts, which is likely to be the case).

Twitter Is Intentionally Preventing CyberDurden from Filing an Appeal

My consigliere and I keep filing an appeal to restore my suspended account. We’ve typed many iterations to justify my appeal, but we’ve only started keeping a local copy of what he sends.

Each time that we file an appeal, Twitter responds with the following (each time with the different case number:

I am keeping track of everything, starting on 1-09-2023 and will continue to until Twitter stops with this mind-fuck-loop.

Please reinstate my account, under the new Twitter TOS. My account was suspended because it was reported for promoting violence, but it was only a clip from a Pink Floyd video mocking the Democrats for the way they marched the articles of impeachment to the Senate. The popular video from a popular song has students falling into a meat grinder. This is not illegal or a threat. I did comment, “grind ’em up,” but that was within the realm of booing the other ‘team’ and would not be considered a threat.

Twitter also added my compliment of another Twitter’s profile picture as a reason for the suspension. The comment might have been considered crass, but it is also not illegal. It is my understanding that Elon Musk does not consider comments that aren’t otherwise illegal as justification for suspension and that they will be unsuspended if no illegal tweets were made.

I have used the appropriate link to appeal my suspension, yet Twitter keeps notifying me that I’m using the wrong appeals link and sending me the same link that I keep using. Then Twitter closes the case number. The following four were only from yesterday.

My account was wrongly suspended during the fervor of the 2020 election results. Many well know influencers are having their account reinstated, yet I am stuck in this loop.

Again. I very respectfully ask Twitter to please reinstate my account.

This is the video that got me suspended:

Clip from Another Brick in the Wall part 2

If Elon Musk or any Twitter influencers with some pull can please elevate this, I would very much appreciate it.

The Twenty-five Rules of Disinformation

This list has appeared, disappeared, then reappeared on various websites over the past two decades; it has also been titled, Thought Terminating Clichés:

1.  Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil: Regardless of what you know, don’t discuss it — especially if you are a public figure, news anchor, etc. If it’s not reported, it didn’t happen, and you never have to deal with the issues.

2. Become incredulous and indignant:  Avoid discussing key issues and instead focus on side issues which can be used to show the topic as being critical of some otherwise sacrosanct group or theme. This is also known as the “How dare you!” gambit.

3. Create rumor mongers:  Avoid discussing issues by describing all charges, regardless of venue or evidence, as mere rumors and wild accusations. Other derogatory terms mutually exclusive of truth may work as well. This method works especially well with a silent press, because the only way the public can learn of the facts are through such “arguable rumors”. If you can associate the material with the Internet, use this fact to certify it a “wild rumor” which can have no basis in fact.

4. Use a straw man:  Find or create a seeming element of your opponent’s argument which you can easily knock down to make yourself look good and the opponent to look bad. Either make up an issue you may safely imply exists based on your interpretation of the opponent/opponent arguments/situation, or select the weakest aspect of the weakest charges. Amplify their significance and destroy them in a way which appears to debunk all the charges, real and fabricated alike, while actually avoiding discussion of the real issues.

5. Sidetrack opponents with name calling and ridicule: This is also known as the primary “attack the messenger” ploy, though other methods qualify as variants of that approach. Associate opponents with unpopular titles such as “kooks”, “right-wing”, “liberal”, “left-wing”, “terrorists”, “conspiracy buffs”, “radicals”, “militia”, “racists”, “religious fanatics”, “sexual deviates”, and so forth. This makes others shrink from support out of fear of gaining the same label, and you avoid dealing with issues.

6. Hit and Run:  In any public forum, make a brief attack of your opponent or the opponent position and then scamper off before an answer can be fielded, or simply ignore any answer. This works extremely well in Internet and letters-to -the-editor environments where a steady stream of new identities can be called upon without having to explain criticism reasoning — simply make an accusation or other attack, never discussing issues, and never answering any subsequent response, for that would dignify the opponent’s viewpoint.

7. Question motives:  Twist or amplify any fact which could so taken to imply that the opponent operates out of a hidden personal agenda or other bias. This avoids discussing issues and forces the accuser on the defensive.

8. Invoke authority:  Claim for yourself or associate yourself with authority and present your argument with enough “jargon” and “minutiae” to illustrate you are “one who knows”, and simply say it isn’t so without discussing issues or demonstrating concretely why or citing sources.

9. Play Dumb:  No matter what evidence or logical argument is offered, avoid discussing issues by denial that they have any credibility, make any sense, provide any proof, contain or make a point, have logic, or support a conclusion. Mix well for maximum effect.

10. Associate opponent charges with old news:  A derivative of — the straw man usually, in any large-scale matter of high — visibility, someone will make charges early on which can be or were already easily dealt with. Where it can be foreseen, have your own side raise a straw man issue and have it dealt with early on as part of the initial contingency plans. Subsequent charges, regardless of validity or new ground uncovered, can usually them be associated with the original charge and dismissed as simply being a rehash without need to address current issues — so much the better where the opponent is or was involved with the original source.

11. Establish and rely upon fall-back positions:  Using a minor matter or element of the facts, take the “high road” and “confess” with candor that some innocent mistake, in hindsight, was made — but that opponents have seized on the opportunity to blow it all out of proportion and imply greater criminalities which, “just isn’t so.” Others can reinforce this on your behalf, later. Done properly, this can garner sympathy and respect for “coming clean” and “owning up” to your mistakes without addressing more serious issues.

12. Enigmas have no solution: Drawing upon the overall umbrella of events surrounding the crime and the multitude of players and events, paint the entire affair as too complex to solve. This causes those otherwise following the matter to begin to loose interest more quickly without having to address the actual issues.

13. Alice in Wonderland Logic:  Avoid discussion of the issues by reasoning backwards with an apparent deductive logic in a way that forbears any actual material fact.

14. Demand complete solutions:  Avoid the issues by requiring opponents to solve the crime at hand completely, a ploy which works best for items qualifying for rule 10.

15. Fit the facts to alternate conclusions: This requires creative thinking unless the crime was planned with contingency conclusions in place.

16. Vanishing evidence and witnesses:  If it does not exist, it is not fact, and you won’t have to address the issue.

17. Change the subject:  Usually in connection with one of the other ploys listed here, find a way to side-track the discussion with abrasive or controversial comments in hopes of turning attention to a new, more manageable topic. This works especially well with companions who can “argue” with you over the new topic and polarize the discussion arena in order to avoid discussing more key issues.

18. Emotionalize, Antagonize, and Goad Opponents: If you can’t do anything else, chide and taunt your opponents and draw them into emotional responses which will tend to make them look foolish and overly motivated, and generally render their material somewhat less coherent. Not only will you avoid discussing the issues in the first instance, but even if their emotional response addresses the issue, you can further avoid the issues by then focusing on how “sensitive they are to criticism”.

19. Ignore proof presented, demand impossible proofs:  This is perhaps a variant of the “play dumb” rule. Regardless of what material may be presented by an opponent in public forums, claim the material irrelevant and demand proof that is impossible for the opponent to come by (it may exist, but not be at his disposal, or it may be something which is known to be safely destroyed or withheld, such as a murder weapon). In order to completely avoid discussing issues may require you to categorically deny and be critical of media or books as valid sources, deny that witnesses are acceptable, or even deny that statements made by government or other authorities have any meaning or relevance.

20. False evidence:  Whenever possible, introduce new facts or clues designed and manufactured to conflict with opponent presentations as useful tools to neutralize sensitive issues or impede resolution. This works best when the crime was designed with contingencies for the purpose, and the facts cannot be easily separated from the fabrications.

21. Call a Grand Jury, Special Prosecutor, or other empowered investigative body:  Subvert the (process) to your benefit and effectively neutralize all sensitive issues without open discussion. Once convened, the evidence and testimony are required to be secret when properly handled. For instance, if you own the prosecuting attorney, it can ensure a Grand Jury hears no useful evidence and that the evidence is sealed an unavailable to subsequent investigators. Once a favorable verdict (usually, this technique is applied to find the guilty innocent, but it can also be used to obtain charges when seeking to frame a victim) is achieved, the matter can be considered officially closed.

22. Manufacture a new truth: Create your own expert(s), group(s), author(s), leader(s) or influence existing ones willing to forge new ground via scientific, investigative, or social research or testimony which concludes favorably. In this way, if you must actually address issues, you can do so authoritatively.

23. Create bigger distractions:  If the above does not seem to be working to distract from sensitive issues, or to prevent unwanted media coverage of unstoppable events such as trials, create bigger news stories (or treat them as such) to distract the multitudes.

24. Silence critics:  If the above methods do not prevail, consider removing opponents from circulation by some definitive solution so that the need to address issues is removed entirely. This can be by their death, arrest and detention, blackmail or destruction of their character by release of blackmail information, or merely by proper intimidation with blackmail or other threats.

25. Vanish:  If you are a key holder of secrets or otherwise overly illuminated and you think the heat is getting too hot, to avoid the issues, vacate the kitchen. If you don’t, somebody in your organization may choose to vanish you instead.…
