Re: twitter
I was suspended/banned (pretty sure those words mean the same thing on Twitter)

I never received any notice saying what I had supposedly done wrong.

I sent an appeal, but I hope you can understand if I'm a bit pessimistic that that'll do any good.

Sorry that I'm being a bit concise. I haven't slept in far too long, and it's affecting my brain a bit. That doesn't mean I don't want to talk, just that I won't be operating at full capacity.

Here's the text of the appeal I sent, for some context:

Hi. I just noticed that my account has been suspended, and I'm honestly not sure as to why. I don't think I've broken any Twitter rules, and if I have I'll be sure not to break them again. I use Twitter in good faith and follow the rules of the site as I understand them.

Obviously, my account is controversial, and receives a lot of hate, and thus people reporting me. This is because I'm a zoophile advocate, and an admitted pro-contact pedophile.

I have checked the TOS, and there does not seem to be anything that even could be interpreted as a prohibition on even the most strident zoophilia activism, and there are many zoophiles who are quite open and honest on the site. I'd also like to make it clear that I've committed no illegal actions whatsoever. When I talk about being intimate with an animal, it is all hypothetical.

The pedophile thing is a bit more complicated. I am aware of your policy on "child sexual exploitation," and have made every attempt to follow it. It is clear to me that simply being an admitted pro-contact pedophile breaks no Twitter rules, if only because my bio, where I admitted that clearly was reported twice, and both times I received an email back from you guys saying that I have broken no rules or laws.

If any of my actions have been in violation of the official interpretation of any of the policies of the site, I am sorry and will make care never to make those mistakes again. I followed the rules as I understood them, and if that understanding was incorrect, it was out of incompetence, rather than malice. Just let me know what I've done wrong, and I'll make sure never to do it again.

Also, as with the zoophilia, I'd like to make it clear that I have never broken the law, and do not plan to, nor do I condone anybody else breaking the law, especially when the mental well-being of children is at stake.

Thank you, whoever reads this, for taking the time to review it. I know it's your job, but I doubt you get the appreciation you deserve. As a closing note, I'd just like to reiterate that I've always used the site in good faith, and any slip-up was do to a misunderstanding of the rules, and nothing else.

Yeah. I know I'll need it.

I know that using Twitter as a platform for serious discussion or at least self-expression is probably a fool's errand, but I'm not interested in it for anything else. It's really the best and only option ATM. Everywhere else either mote explicitly bans real discussion, is too small to have any real diversity of opinion, or like here (IB) where most people who aren't total trolls prefer to do their own thing and avoid anything even bordering on conflict.
