The same mainstream media outlet that faced backlash for lamenting the death of “austere religious scholar” Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is now facing backlash for drawing attention to the Taliban’s “sophisticated” use of social media.In a news report published Wednesday, The Washington Post claimed via “analysts” that the Taliban remains online and active on social media networks because they haven’t broken any of the rules.The piece might have possibly been able to evade backlash had the Post stuck to just reporting on the Taliban’s social media strategies.Instead, the Post chose to add a political twist by contrasting the Taliban’s online behavior with that of former President Donald Trump.

You can't invent fantasy stories as farcical and full of nonsense as crazy as the stuff that these truly mentally deranged "journalists" believe and say.

I was suspended from Twitter months ago for saying that if Antifa would have had their butts kicked in the beginning, no riots would have followed.

Washington Post, Bezos, Amazon, Prime, and Blue Origin, all the same. Don't do business with these organizations. They don't care about you, only your money.

Be careful what you say
Stating the following, "I question the policies of Twitter", could get you labeled as a "domestic terrorist" by the DHS
Are you prepared to live a surveilled life inside a government camp near the Artic Circle?

The minute they question the legitimacy of the 2020 election, they're out as well. Not gonna happen, though.

It's amazing what Twitter will allow if you just post a smiley face, rainbow flag, or "Allah Akbar". Or "Orange Man Bad."

The Taliban play by Mohammed's rules and there isn't a more vicious, cruel, murderous set of rules available on the planet.

And the rules are that anyone who stands for the Constitution and Freedom will be barred, but it's OK for the enemies of Freedom and the Constitution, the supporters of Totalitarian Socialism, to spread their lies.

While I would have backed Trump if he wanted to behead a few thousand people in D.C., he never did it. How about those Taliban clowns? Can the paper say the same thing about them. Play by the rules my arse.

Ya they play by the rules. Their 9 year old brides had no comment. Or the women between 15 and 45 who they take as sex slaves had no comment. Or the woman who was murdered for not wearing a burka had no comment.

Play by the rules? I guess that’s why MLK Jr., Bobby Kennedy and Malcolm X got canceled. Trump should consider himself lucky. Nowadays, the Deep State merely takes your Twitter account from you.

They are allowed to continue because they are fellow travelers in Sharia with Comrade Jack bin Dorsey.

This stupidity was brought to you by those who lamented the death of "austere religious scholar" Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the "democracy dies in darkness" charlatans, far left apologist outlet disguised as journalists.
