Recently LinkedIn Moderators suspended my account indefinitely with a pretense of needing to positively ID me on their platform. "Suspensions" with a fake demand for ID, is a way in which LinkedIn silences people who are too vocal speaking truth to power. If you Google the hashtag #NotAnotherDemocrat on LinkedIn, there are scores of results, but they've all been taken down at the request of powerful Democrats.

Clicking on any of these results will produce a failed link.

Being silenced by LinkedIn means we were stepping on some toes. I had over 2100 connections and that list was growing by the week. We had more that 100 connections with genuine influencer status and people were starting to pay attention. Some of our posts were reaching more than 20,000 readers and getting more than 500 reactions and 100's of comments.

LinkedIn mods not happy with this outcome, celebrated the first of the year 2022 by suspending my account, with no intention of responding to or acting on a request for reinstatement. Most likely demanding a photocopy of my ID, which we provided, to out my business to blacklists all over the country. If you think I'm kidding, don't. I've already had many people not return phone calls and "switch off" as a result of me not heading their "warnings" to keep my mouth shut and "behave" myself.

Apparently, the "right people" aren't the people the LinkedIn user gets to decide. Rather LinkedIn decides who the "right people" are. If you reach out to the wrong people, or you are deemed a "wrong person", then you get de-platformed and your voice is silenced.

IF you read the "do's and don'ts", none of what we were doing violated the User Agreement linked in the 2nd paragraph.

These Professional Community Policies are geared towards silencing people they disagree with. Democrats are free to post whatever they wish; like the Kamala Harris supporting Democrat attorney who threated my life was not suspended from LinkedIn for even a day.
