Twitter has permanently suspended the personal account of the US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene for repeated violations of its policies on coronavirus misinformation. The action against Representative Greene came under Twitter's strike system, which identifies posts about the virus on the platform. Speaking on the account suspension, Rep Greene said this proves that Twitter is an enemy to America and can't handle the truth. "I'll show America we don't need them and it's time to defeat our enemies. They can't successfully complete a Communist revolution when people tell the truth," Greene further added. #news #twitter #socialmedia --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/techgraph/message
