User ID: 77556076 United States 07/27/2019 11:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Instagram has suspended scores of popular ‘meme’ accounts that collectively have tens of millions of followers, during a mass purge of the platform. The move was met with shock and anger by users. Quoting: keybored The cull was carried out on Friday with no warning to users other than an email to tell the account holders that they had been suspended. One, @Finest.Inventions, claimed more than 13 million followers alone.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75076045 United States 07/27/2019 11:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All the big social media companies are doing this, changing their platforms, rolling out new "content approval rules" and banning like there's no tomorrow. It seems clear to me they're setting up for some draconian control mechanisms in advance of the election. |

When a person is grounded they don’t care if they are made fun of. Like the video points out they own it. People get triggered when they take themselves to seriously. Telling them to lighten up causes them to explode. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77219559 By that logic all humor is a form of violence so let's ban it. Actually that's really what's happening. The left shuts down humor systematically. Laughing is a no-no. Jerry Seinfeld refuses to perform at colleges anymore because students have been so brainwashed to be politically correct that they'll object to just about every single joke he makes. |
