Some conservatives have recently been suspended from Twitter without notice, while others have either deactivated their accounts or simply quit tweeting. Tonight, it looks as though conservative columnist A.J. Delgado has been suspended without explanation. (Editor’s note: see update below. She deactivated her account)
Another conservative banished from Twitter.

Adam Baldwin yesterday said goodbye to Twitter voluntarily, after clearing up the media’s narrative that censorship, not “alleged censorship,” drove him to look for greener pastures.
What’s disturbing is Twitter’s “abusive user” form, which includes among its transgressions “disagreement with my opinion.”
Wow, I didn't believe it, but there it is. #RIPTwitter pic.twitter.com/fMmvyrxm8e

@CounterMoonbat this isn't fake?

@CounterMoonbat Sad how the "safe space" people are taking over. The entire point of Twitter is disagreeing with others.

@CounterMoonbat wow.

“Specific violent threats involving physical safety or well-being” makes sense, as it’s clear and specific. Then there’s “harassment,” described in the help text pop-up as “direct, specific threats of violence against others.”
@CounterMoonbat @skywarp14 that's fake

Here’s the link again. If it’s fake, it’s a masterful fake.
Update 2/25/15:
Hey all!! Thanks for all your emails! WOW, touched! But I just deactivated — Twitter didn't ban me! 😉

Someone I know IRL sent me a very upsetting message critiquing my support of Trump and I just needed a day to decompress. :(

But thanks for all your emails, wow! Didn't want folks to blame Twitter, lol, so figured I'd reactivate early.

I feel like I'm showing up at my funeral going, "Wait, I'm alive!" lol
