This is an invitation to all of us to create fake Lowtax twitter accounts. It'll be like Spartacus but with hashtags.

I think Lowtax should take it up the rear end from Anita Sarkeesian. I'm sure she can vouch for him then, considering that she works for Twitter's Ministry of Truth.

Arguably the most prolific internet comedian of the last 2 decades, seeding everyone from Maddox to Anita to 4chan to Cracked.com. Y'all need better union representation if you aren't taking care of your institutional leadership.

I feel as though the forum posters of SA may have gotten a bit ahead of themselves :-) Forums are meant to be inclusive, and generate income for example. When did forum posters gain the right to prevent that?

What is this check mark star bullshit? Is it another one of those (((jew))) things? I don't think Lowtax is Jewish.

Back in the day we just looked for the person that Maddox and the newsgroup ppl didn't troll. Man how the grapevine changes.

Verification apparently gives you a bunch of features that makes twitter a not lovely platform to use, so there is some genuine reason to want it. Verification enables a bunch of different filtering options that free you from interacting with jerks unless you seek out the jerk-interaction experience. If you are e- or actual famous this supposedly makes twitter amazing, because your thousands of followers who all love you become like a more advanced version of google/amazon services, delivering you any information you ask of them.

Verified filtering isn't a block list, or at least not a lovely one like the ones you can sign up for. I think it's done semi-manually by twitter staff. There are other verified features as well, I think. idk I don't even have twitter, I'm just repeating poo poo ive overheard while stalking various celebrities.

So it's like some kind of digital feudalism? Yet another thing that Lowtax pioneered with these very forums. He doesn't need twitter he has us on these very forums. You can check my post history and see all the quality content I have contributed just in the past few months!

Lowtax is a public figure internet hero and heart breaker love maker. He can just hire or get people to write him tweets pro bono and he's smart enough to self-edit anyway. No idea about the Lowtax hostility. He's a saint for tolerating it.

Is twitter owned by YouTube, or is it just a coincidence that they've both started stomping down wrongthink and dissenting ideas?

Low Tax can't get verified because Twitter knows he died in prison in 2013 while serving his murder conviction.
