FORTIFICATION: Twitter users regularly point out that if they tweet the same election claims that Democrats tweeted after President Trump won the 2016 election they would be suspended or banned. What they don't understand is that Democrats were 'fortifying' democracy.
2/ For example, if a Trump supporter posted a tweet similar to this 5/16/2017 tweet from Pelosi it would be flagged as disputed as it poses a risk of violence. Pelosi's tweet is still up because it fortifies democracy. https://twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi/status/864522009048494080
3/ Similarly, if a Trump supporter posted a video on YouTube saying the EXACT same words as Democrats calling for uprisings, unrest, and violence their videos would be banned. Again, Democrats are fortifying democracy.
4/ Another example of the sort of Tweets that Twitter believes fortify democracy. #fortifiedelection https://twitter.com/OlgaNYC1211/status/882096806448041988
5/ If a Trump supporter posted this tweet from a verified user they would be suspended from Twitter. But again, this particular tweet fortifies democracy. #fortifiedelection https://twitter.com/Jason_Pollock/status/817223895170355200
6/ More wild claims that would get a Trump supporter banned but is election fortification when tweeted by a Democrat. #fortifiedelectionhttps://twitter.com/FrancesRauer/status/921360935318638594
7/ Even the mainstream media got in on the action spreading doubt about the outcome of the election but ultimately fortifying democracy. #fortifiedelection https://twitter.com/VABVOX/status/847579147690029059
8/ Georgia congressman concluded the election was hacked but again his claim fortified democracy. #fortifiedelection https://twitter.com/srl/status/925346461503631360
9/ Even All in the Family actor and producer claimed the election was stolen and yet his claim fortified democracy. #fortifiedelection https://twitter.com/robreiner/status/855628153364111361
10/ MSNBC reporters claimed Russia conducted a covert op with Trump to steal the election but in doing so they were fortifying democracy. #fortifiedelection https://twitter.com/DavidCornDC/status/822087657710907392
11/ Hopefully this thread helps you understand that if your election claims fortify democracy - i.e. legitimize Biden's presidency - they are okay. #fortifiedelection
