Twitter locks Brian Doherty's account for condemning 'Trans Day of Vengeance': Twitter locked journalist Brian Doherty's account for a post about the Trans Day of Vengeance. He said, "Will the 'Transgender Day of Violence' still be held this weekend after the shooting in #NashvilleCovenantSchool? https://t.co/loH3oDYOpz." Twitter flagged the tweet for violating the one of the platform's rules, according to screenshots provided by Doherty. In a tweet about the incident, Doherty said, "I only asked a question and was censored." It appears Twitter censored every post about the Trans Day of Vengeance, even if the post criticized the event. Twitter VP of Trust and Safety Ella Irwin tweeted that "The graphic was reported by a high number of users across our platform yesterday and yes, I'm sure the timing of that was due to heightened sensitivity to the language, given the tragic events in Nashville. We always evaluate tweets driving a sudden spike in user complaints."
