TWITTER VS THE NEW VERSE NEWS

No poem today.

A few years ago, Facebook took down, without explanation or right to appeal, our page on that platform.

Yesterday, when we tried to tweet an announcement that included our url TheNewVerse.News about the day’s new poems, my tweet was disallowed with this explanation: “We can't complete this request because this link has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially harmful. Visit our Help Center to learn more.”

The same happens if we attempt to tweet our basic url: https://ift.tt/zFbCHhj .

And if anyone tries to click those urls from a tweet, they see this message:


NVN readers know that this journal is guilty of none of the characteristics Twitter lists above.

Neither @TwitterSupport nor https://help.twitter.com/en have provided any specific explanation nor any path to appeal.

We can’t help but believe that right-wing haters who loathe the progressive politics of this journal have fed Twitter lies about us.

We will try to work around these problems on Twitter for as long as we can.

And, of course, The New Verse News site itself has not been affected. Not yet anyway.

But we are discouraged.

James
