I can’t remember ever seeing any paid tweet from any Skeptic or Skeptic group in all my years on Twitter, but, good news, they’re going to solve this non-existent danger!
Twitter bans ‘misleading’ ads about climate change
Twitter levied a new ban today on “misleading” advertisements “that contradict the scientific consensus on climate change.”
“We believe that climate denialism shouldn’t be monetized on Twitter, and that misrepresentative ads shouldn’t detract from important conversations about the climate crisis,” the company said in a blog post today.
Its decisions about what’s legit content in regard to climate change will be guided by “authoritative sources,” it says, including the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The IPCC has published a couple of landmark reports on the crisis over the past few months that break down what needs to be done to adapt to the changes that are already unfolding as well as how to avert even more severe consequences in the future, like intensifying weather disasters and ferocious wildfire seasons.
Twitter also said that it will soon share more details about how it plans to “add reliable, authoritative context” about climate change on its platform. Those conversations have gotten much louder over the past year, according to the company. Talk about “sustainability” on the platform has grown by over 150 percent since 2021, Twitter says. Discussions on “decarbonization,” aka getting rid of greenhouse gas emissions that come from burning fossil fuels, are also up 50 percent. Other environmental conversations are heating up, too. Chatter about reducing waste grew by more than 100 percent over the same time period.
See, this is how science works: no one is allowed to question Authority. Ever. No one is allowed to offer different viewpoints, facts, figures. The Cult cannot stand up to scrutiny.
And you know that they next thing will be to ban all those who tweet in opposition to the climate cult’s beliefs.
(Credit Angel) Raffi Krikorian, a developer at Twitter once stated that each tweet consumes around 90 joules, equalling 0.02g of CO2 emissions. Hardly anything right? Correct, however there are approximately 8,000 tweets written and published every single second.
That works out to a carbon footprint of 5.046 billion grams per year. That’s 5,045.76 metric tons per year. The average American’s carbon footprint is 16 metric tons per year, the equivalent of 3,334 diesel cars. Further, that is a number from 2018, and people use a lot more GIFs, videos, and photos now.
Kiddies, remember how the scientific method works. Instead of verifiable evidence and repeatable experiments, just shut down any debate on the topic….
Well JI that’s the communist version and since we’re living under their rules it seems I guess we have to comply with only one opinion. One would think that the people who have never been right on one single prediction would be ridiculed rather than canonized.
One thing you can say about the American left, once their boot is on your face it never lets up. I wish they cared about Liberty as much as they do about forcing everyone to obey.
FJB and his commie minions.
Kiddies, let’s reopen the debates on evolution, plate tectonics, ozone, atomic theory…
Just saying no is not part of the scientific method.
We get it. Mis- and dis-information is the lifeblood of the nuCunservative movement (aka Social Anarchist Party of SAP). The SAPs hate science because sometimes scientific conclusions run counter to the cunservative narrative. The Earth is not the center of the universe. There is still no evidence of demons, miracles, gods or angels. More guns have not made America safer. Covid has killed 1 million Americans. Ivermectin has little or no impact on Covid infections.
Should flat-earthers be afforded a platform on private businesses to spread nonsense? Should FOX make a prime-time hour available for Dr. Michael Mann to explain the basics of global warming? If not, why not?
Kiddies, all those topics you mentioned are open for discussion on Twitter, but…..ok
Ivermectin does work. Just observe whatever stance our Johnny and J take, and figure the opposite is true…….https://phzoe.com/2022/04/05/ivermectin-works/
Oh, wait-it does work

Maybe Ron derFuhrer, er Ron derSantis can ban twitter.
So fascists like dQwd associate wanting free speech with banning Twitter? Interesting. When you’re done projecting again go back to reading Mein Kampf.
FJB and all his fascist/commie minions.
L.G.Brandqn!, L.G.Brandqn! equates disinformation in advertisements with free speech. twitter is not obligated to publish disinformation.
Does L.G.Brandqn!, L.G.Brandqn! really feel that twitter should have no cuntrol over advertising on its platform? Really?
Should FOX be forced to accept every advertisement they receive?
We fully understand the cunservative desire to rule and will eventually install a cunservative government that WILL cuntrol all media. It’s in your DNA.
QdOwd: You have been on a continuous slide toward insanity since you fake president and his corrupt perverse junta began losing WWIII in The Ukraine and his approval rating sunk to 29%. We all understand your panic at having free speech on all the propaganda social media sites you commies and fascists have controlled with impunity sine they began but tough shit on you. Freedom wills out. You lose. Again. And if you keep worshiping the commie gods of hate and jealousy you will continue to lose.
Seems when Musk says he wants to buy Twitter and when Disney looses all it’s tax perks, and when the citizens rise up and say keep your perverted paws off our kids you and your tribe get hysterical. Wonder why?
We only want the ability to be heard on an equal footing with you. No more. We don’t want to censor you on Twitter, ban you from Facebook or de platform you on YouTube. We don’t want to stop your candidate from Tweeting then say we didn’t use fraud to win. In fact the more the people read what you stand for the more they leave your party. But when you tell us inflation is only 8.5% when used cars are up 40%, gas is up 55%, utilities up 35% something ain’t right. Are you using the same math that tried to convince Americans that a moron like biden got 81 million votes?
BTW, we have no desire to “rule” that’s your fascist shit not ours. But we do desire to participate and no be told our opinions are “disinformation” or “misinformation” and only yours are the truth all while you’re so afraid of our speech you ban us from what should be public forums on public communication networks. We also don’t appreciate being called “deplorables” or “white supremacists” or racists every time we disagree with voting laws, racial quotas and segregation and perverts teaching children.
But you QdOwd have gone completely off the reservation with your recent insane diatribes, accusations, lies and spewing hate toward everyone who refuses to bow to your tyranny.
Your entire political party has become nothing but cowards and bullies afraid to let others speak or allow others to share power. You’re corrupt, liars and in short you are now totally full of shit. That’s why you commies insist on calling our republic a democracy.

FJB and QdOwd.
OK, groooomer.
Poor L.G. BrandQn! L.G. BrandQn! still feeling that DonJon tRump won the election. Poor L.G. is mentally unstable.
Your love interest, Vlad Putin, is not doing so well in Ukraine. President Biden is preventing WWIII.
Anyway, Teach is grooooming you to believe his partially correct claims – actually, twitter is blocking lying advertisements (but aren’t all ads lying?).
They already pretty much shut down the flat earth debate and are now trying to shut down the Bible based science thst the Earth be but 6000 year old. These shutdowns are being cramned down our throats by Satan
Worshiping pedophiles. Part of the problem is caused by human evolution which should be immediately frozen at where it is right now.
The article states that Twitter will not accept advertising which does not accept
global warmingclimate change; it does not say that it will ban individual users expressing doubt thatglobal warmingclimate change is real. That’s a significant difference, but we’ll have to see if my tweets publicizing our esteemed host’s posts will get me banned.William Teach neglected to point out that twitter CHOSE not to run disinforming ADVERTISEMENTS!
Tell me again why any adult has Twitter?
On this we agree.
