There has been a purge of left-wing accounts from social media, with socialist organizations being targeted on Facebook and multiple Antifa-associated accounts suspended from Twitter.
“We have just confirmed that Facebook has disabled the page of the International Youth and Students for Social Equality at the University of Michigan, as well as the accounts of all admins,”
World Socialist Website editor tweeted today. “This is an unprecedented attack on the speech rights of an official campus student group.”
On Friday, Facebook carried out a purge of left-wing, antiwar and progressive pages and accounts, including leading members of the Socialist Equality Party. Facebook gave no explanation why the accounts were disabled or even a public acknowledgement that the deletions had occurred.

Now that Joe Biden is president, Twitter has suspended several popular Antifa accounts with more than 71,000 followers combined following Inauguration Day riots.
At least four accounts tied with the militant group have been yanked offline @JewishWorker, @RevAbolition, @RevAbolitionNYC and @TheBaseBK, the account for the anarchist center in Bushwick, Brooklyn, the New York Post reported.
Archived web pages of the accounts show they shared more than 71,000 followers and dated as far back as 2012, according to the Post.
Their pages now read “Account suspended” for violating Twitter rules.
Antifa Sacramento railed against The Base’s suspension on its own Twitter.
Hmmm: Did Twitter start a purge of Antifa accounts?

Naah, but it’s still a notable step coming months after urban violence in cities across the US organized by the group. The New York Post reported this morning that Twitter has taken down a few Antifa-related accounts, with the relatively modest number of 71,000 followers combined. It’s not even clear what might have triggered the suspensions:

Antifa organizers call for “targeted destruction” and “direct action” across the United States during the inauguration of Joe Biden as the nation’s 46th president. The organizers plan to confront Trump supporters in multiple state capitals.
“It’s not f king over,” one Antifa poster states while calling for “direct action” at Occidental Park in Seattle, Washington, according to a tweet by independent journalist Andy Ngo.

Another poster called for “targeted destruction against corporations assisting ICE.” In Denver, a BLM-Antifa poster calls for a march to the capitol to counter-protest the Trump rally coinciding with the timing of Biden’s swearing-in.
