The official White House social media account on X (formerly Twitter) recently posted a video that has drawn widespread attention. The post has been described by some observers as unprofessional, with criticisms suggesting the account is managed immaturely. Concurrently, controversy has emerged on the X platform regarding a transgender-themed account that openly encouraged followers to send anthrax to ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement). Despite the serious nature of this threat, X's moderation team reportedly determined that the content did not violate the platform's terms of service. This decision has sparked debate about the consistency and legality of content moderation policies, especially when compared to hypothetical scenarios involving threats against political figures like President Joe Biden or Robert F. Kennedy Jr., where enforcement would likely be swift and severe.
X said it was fine for this trans account to tell people that they should send ice anthrax. Can you imagine if somebody had said the same about Biden? They would’ve been arrested within minutes. Then the trans account responded on mine saying fuck yeah, their words, and do it.
Are you surprised that Twitter/X said it was fine for this account below, see comments, to tell people that they should anthrax ice and literally send them anthrax? Can you imagine if they’d said the same about Biden? They would’ve been arrested within minutes.
I’m pretty sure encouraging people to anthrax ice goes against TOS. I am pretty sure it’s actually illegal to say this as well and a criminal act. What do you think? Yes or no? https://t.co/FjmN2AOMjb
