Twitter: Limited Visibility

So, recently a post i made on Twitter got hit with loss of visibility due to "hate speech". What a ridiculous concept. i mentioned Operation Wetback and that getting rid of illegal aliens would be a good thing. i meant deportation, not necessarily "disappearing" them".  i think they restored it.

Did i make an actual threat (to do so: it much be specific, targeted, and actionable)? Nope, as i stated in my reply, illegal aliens consist of numerous nationalities and cultural backgrounds. Wetback" in that context is not a targeted response to the Hispanic community, just a reference to an Eisenhower era immigration program. Seriously, the first time i heard the term was in an episode of Green Acres (and i had to look it up). 

Do i like illegal "immigration" (really invasion)? Definitely not. Is it immoral to support/encourage it? Without question.

Should a company like X (Twitter) condone at best, encourage unlawful/illegal behavior at worst? Definitely not.  Trying to normalize/rationalize it is terrible. Countries have borders for a reason. You cannot maintain sovereignty with unlimited migration (not immigration outside of the legal pathways). The migrant's better life is likely a worse life for those already here.
