It’s Gutless, Censor Obsessed Twitter NOT The Epoch Times That Is Smarmy and SPAMMY"Spammy”? That’s the word morons at Twitter used to describe the epic, truth-telling Epoch Times, calling it “spammy and unsafe”. ‘Spammy” is the perfect adjective to describe the hopelessly moronic CEOs over at Elon Musk-plagued Twitter. ‘Twitter Censors All Content From The Epoch Times (Epoch Times, July 29, 2022)
"Twitter on July 28 imposed a blockade on all content from The Epoch Times without explanation, raising further concerns about freedom of speech on the platform and drawing ire from three U.S. senators. (Epoch Times) “The platform enforced a warning on all links from The Epoch Times. A click on a link directs users to a page titled “Warning: this link may be unsafe,” which prompts users to return to the previous page. “The link you are trying to access has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially spammy or unsafe,” the warning stated, citing Twitter’s URL policy. “The notice said that the link could fall into any of four categories: “malicious links that could steal personal information or harm electronic devices”; “spammy links that mislead people or disrupt their experience”; “violent or misleading content that could lead to real-world harm”; or content that “if posted directly on Twitter, are a violation of the Twitter Rules.” “Twitter’s warning page allows users to proceed to the Epoch Times link if they click on the word “continue” at the very bottom of the page. “The platform has not responded to multiple requests from The Epoch Times for clarification.”

Epoch Times steadfastly beckons truth seekers from the brightest of lights

Just as there is no known cure for stupid, there is no way for all those censored by Twitter to ever get an answer explaining why they are censored. In the pitch black atmosphere in which the Western World is now trapped by the powerful, take-no-prisoners global elite, The Epoch Times steadfastly beckons truth seekers from the brightest of lights. For me personally, ET is not a Hollywood heroic extraterrestrial but the main go-to, pick-me-up in a world getting crazier by day. I readily admit that I admired the forthright Epoch Times long before the dominance of Fake News became so downright depressing. It was the wonderful (Bless her!) Cindy Gu, president and publisher of the Canadian editors of the Epoch Times, who taught me decades ago all I know about the persecution of Falun Gong by the Communist China Government. It was the Toronto-based, enterprising ET reporter Omid Ghoreishi, who once made my day by asking my advice about which Canadian reporters might be available to write for The Epoch Times.

The Epoch Times makes available to readers, the erudite, excellent writer, Canadian-born Conrad Black, CFP columnist Matthew Vadum and too many others to mention here. There are, of course, other beckoning lights there to boost me out of my middle-of-the-night worrisome thoughts. Whatfinger, operated by three Afghanistan/Iraq war veterans, is one. Every time I see something from Drudge, left in a steaming mess ever since its founder left, I am grateful that Whatfinger makes for a splendid, fast-growing alternative. Meanwhile, this is what Twitter rates as “spammy’:
“The Epoch Times is an award-winning company that consists of a fast-growing English-language newspaper and news website, and the world’s largest Chinese-language newspaper and news website. Published in 36 countries and 22 languages globally. (Epoch Times) “The Epoch Times was founded in 2000 by Chinese Americans who fled communist China and sought to create an independent media outlet to bring uncensored and truthful information to the world. “At least 10 staff members for The Epoch Times were arrested that year in China, with one editor-in-chief spending a decade in prison.

By contrast, cowardly Twitter, has no skin, but only big money in the game

“While operating outside of China, the media outlet has remained a consistent target of attacks from the Chinese regime over the past two decades. “The printing press of the Hong Kong edition of The Epoch Times has suffered a series of violent break-ins, including arson, over the years, viewed as attempts by Beijing to intimidate the publication.”
‘Twitter Targets American Media, Not Chinese State Media. (NTD, July 29, 2022)
“Major Chinese state media, by contrast, remain accessible on the platform as of press time.”
By contrast, cowardly Twitter, has no skin, but only big money in the game. Because of all this, it is Twitter, NOT The Epoch Times that should be labelled as seriously “SPAMMY”! Related: Twitter Stops Censoring Epoch Times Content After Outcry
