libertaliadehatali

Eugènie La Borgia

alzcurda

Irreductibles.cat

@Gargron are people of twitter spaña fed up with political censorship

zalov

@Gargron Exactly, due to the censorship of Twitter Spain. That's the main reason.

Magwas

@Gargron
I even considered to revive my old fb acc to convey the idea.

Toni

@Gargron Yeah. Basically, a very influencing user had his account suspended due to mass reporting by right-wing users, and now a lot of people have decided to leave Twitter and start using Mastodon.

tekhelet

@Gargron mastodon is very promising. Loving the community out here so far.

Adán Portela ☭

@Gargron Yes! We are spanish communist Twitter and they are censoring us so... we are here!

MariaMcN

@Gargron yep. Because of the censorship of the far right Twitter sPain against everybody who isn't..

Estadodederechas

@Gargron
The Spanish Royal family have links in Twitter Spain.
So we are trying to push people to join Mastodon.

buscaideas

@Gargron Yes, in Spain many left-wing people migrated from Twitter to Mastodon because of censorship, related to political ideology. They want us to be submissive to capitalism, something we cannot stand.

javiermarin

@Gargron
Yes, There have been banned accounts on reports from alt-right organized groups and people is migrating due to censhorship.

Backy

@Gargron It is, the spanish Twitter community is tired of the social network's rules and decided to switch to Mastodon

Monica Limon

@Gargron Twitter Spain censors accounts, because of its political ideology, we have tired of that fascist country.

Iñaki Martinez

@Gargron In Spanish State are moving that hashtag in response to the fascist censorship in TW

Arkatiur

@Gargron It is. And now they all will happily answer your question :) You've said welcome without knowing it!

Nynaeve

@Gargron yes. The campaign of #yomigroamastodon in twitter is going hard. People is too tired about the censored situation

Krin

@Gargron It is! Lots of people fed up with Twitter's censorship of people critical of capitalism and its older brother fascism.

Armeris

@Gargron it seems so. Twitter Spain has blocked some accounts of a political sign because massive reports from accounts of the opposite sign

La Liberación de Berlín

@Gargron It is. We're running away from the new Twitter Terms and Services. They're going to be able to close accounts at their discretion and without any reason whatsoever. Furthermore, a lot of leftist accounts have been banned in the past month, so we're also running away from censorship.

Max Marx

@Gargron yes my boy. Spain is taking the lead.

Matrioska

@Gargron ponle un traductor a esto para los que entendemos inglés, por favor

Untaljuanillo

@Gargron of course. If twitter censure us, we leave and that's it.

Filípica

@Gargron Yes, it's relate to Spanish people movement for freedom against fascism, repression and quality information.

Timmy

@Gargron We are tired of the censorship that Twitter exerts on thousands of users who are dedicated to uncovering fake news from the press media and the political and economic powers. Just want the freedom expression that Twitter has been supressing for 10 years. And memes, a lot of memes.

JordiQ 🏳️‍🌈🏴

@Gargron indeed! Twitter in Spain has fascists behaviours...
Escaping from censorship!

markelm16

@Gargron they blocked a lot of spanish speaking accounts from Twitter and people is angry.

TN Weber

@Gargron It's because of the censorship of Twitter. A lot of users have been suspended permanently because the things they wrote didn't follow the political agenda of the social media or have been the target of virtual harassment by extreme-right users while the platform hade done anything about it. I hope I made myself clear. I need to train my english.

Axelorius

@Gargron In Catalonia, the catalans on Twitter are systematically censured by Twitter Spain. So, here we are!

manu piopio

@Gargron Several Spanish accounts censored by Twitter, due to false allegations by fascists/nazis accounts/bots whom Twitter allows. #YoMigroaMastodon

EnDefensaDeStalingrado

@Gargron censorship on Twitter Spain is being brutal, in a month they have closed at least 50 left accounts. We are migrating to Mastodon.

Garland

@Gargron now Twitter is a black ass of fascism... Is better to migrate to Mastodon !!!

Jaume 🎗

@Gargron Twitter Spain is closing accounts due to political opinions.

SuAveRarezA

@Gargron... Probably... It's my case, if you mind... 😏

PilarEnModeOn

@Gargron so much people dislike Twitter censure. Catalans also.

sergiocorchi

@Gargron yes. Twitter is fucking around in Spain. A lot of accounts are being censored

Posturitas

@Gargron hello 😂😂 is your Christmas party baby!

SilviaPM

@Gargron Spain is a Facist State and Twitter has censored a lot of lefts counts. Today at Spain, Mastodon is a party

Bonaventure

@Gargron That's correct. Basically Spanish tweeter is banning progressive thinking accounts with hundreds of thousands followers, day in day out, while nazis are allowed to harras anybody with no consequence.

Bonaventure

@Gargron Spain is the OCDE country with less mass-media plurality, so young people try to get information from social networks.

xxxkw2

@Gargron new digital censorship laws in Spain. Twitter CEO in Spain is family related to the king, applies oppressive censorship.
Mostly Catalan independence supporters or left , banned and persecuted in other social media.

Bonaventure

@Gargron Spain Tweeter CEO, Nathalie Picquot, is Spain's king relative. It does not sound ackward, considering the right wing ideology showed up in recent times by Spanish Monarchy and the Royal House

xafbcn

@Gargron yes, a strange censoship in Twitter along the last hours.

solanespep

@Gargron This is in response to the policies of Twitter Spain, and its constant censorship for political motivations.
The responsible is Nathalie Picquot, general manager of Twitter Spain, and a distant relative of the King of IsPain.
Feudal country in XXI Century

DavidTS

@Gargron Yeah, Fascism is too much in Twitter Spain

Davidivorra

@Gargron BerdaderaH came here and many others like me followed him. Happy to see it was noticed :-)

danouton

@Gargron it is because of the undeniable censorship present in Twitter favouring the far-right speech. The hashtag is just a symptom.

iconet Foundation

@Gargron Maybe also related to #36c3? Lot of people talking about the fediverse these days!

hector_otero

@Gargron Yes, that's right. Many people are afraid that @TwitterOffical could close our accounts, because our political opinions, when we talk about the defense of Human Rights, for example.

Rosa Nicolás

@Gargron Yes, I think so. In twitter are people talking about that. But one of the comments is that Mastodon has to improve.

Napalm

@Gargron for the same reason it happened one year ago.

Krynis

@Gargron Honestly some game devs I talk to a lot said they were going to beef up their presence here, also the official Mastodon twitter is funny AF.
