December 22, 2022The Twitter account for a Colorado-based Antifa group has been suspended – less than a month after the platform’s new owner Elon Musk promised to purge all accounts that incite violence.
Screenshots taken Saturday evening show that @COSAntiFascists, the Colorado Springs cell of the domestic terror group, has, in fact, been nixed – with reporter Andy Ngo the first to break the news.
Ngo, an editor for The Post Millennial, had been one of many onlookers to express anger last month over the terror group’s continued presence on the social media platform, even after Musk took control of the company in late October.
The Colorado group – which had 15,000 followers- is one of several far-left profiles scrubbed in the past week, with many seemingly linked to Antifa, which has thousands of cells across the country.
It comes as Musk last month announced he would permanently suspend accounts without warning, if they promote violence and are not labeled as parody.
Musk had one point argued against lifetime bans, but after several celebrity and blue-check verified users changed their accounts to mimic his own, he ordered the policy be revamped.
It also comes amid increased suspicion of cooperation between Twitter and the FBI in scrubbing and ignoring certain accounts – with Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi Saturday sharing documents that exposed the extent of the alleged censorship.
Posts shared by the journalist included calls from organizers for their supporters to vandalize local pro-life pregnancy centers following the recent Roe v. Wade Supreme Court reversal, and orders instructing followers to assault prominent right-wingers.
‘The account has operated for years instructing comrades to assault people & directing members to get the home addresses, phone numbers of targets,’ Ngo wrote, adding, ‘It had 15k followers.’
A month earlier, Ngo shared his concern about the group’s presence on Twitter in a reply to a post from Musk, where he called on users on to air any issues with the site that he should address following his highly publicized takeover.
‘Removing child exploitation is priority #1,’ Musk, 51, wrote at the time. ‘Please reply in comments if you see anything that Twitter needs to address.’
Ngo – an outspoken critic of the terror group – replied and noted that a large number accounts used by its members and hundreds of cells across the country are used to incite violence.
Ngo noted that Despite this, hundreds of Antifa accounts remain unbanned, with a list of more than 5000 Antifa and Antifa follower accounts currently being circulated.
