I Have Been Suspended From Twitter #FreeSargon

Time Text
Hello folks, as you can see, I've been suspended from Twitter, and I don't know why, because I didn't do anything.
I was playing ARC and listening to the DNC forum, because I hadn't been through it yet, it's like an eight-hour stream, but I was going through to find the most choice bits to bring to you to talk about in a video.
And this happened, and so I don't really know what's going on.
I mean, my pinned tweet is don't send a threat, so I'm guessing it's not because I sent a threat, because obviously I don't send threats, because that's ridiculous, or any kind of like harassment.
It's just not on.
And because this will happen, basically.
So, yeah, but the thing is, I don't really know what I've done.
I mean, you know, I was mocking Donald Trump.
Or, I mean, this is the only thing that I can think of that's vaguely likely.
So, I replied to a tweet from the High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Vice President of the EU Commission, Federica McCarini.
She said, A peaceful and diverse Europe is everyone's interest and responsibility.
And I just asked, hasn't mass Islamic immigration to Europe drastically raised the odds of terror attacks, though?
Because I assume that that's the case.
I mean, I should have gone and looked up the statistics, but I mean, she's the person surely who knows.
So, I thought I'd ask.
And it's a question.
And if it turned out that it wasn't, I'd say, okay, well, fair enough.
Put my hands up.
But again, it's not abuse.
It's not offensive.
It's just a question.
But I mean, other people have been posting things offensive, but look, their accounts haven't been banned.
It's just mine.
So I'm guessing that wasn't the problem.
And even then, I don't think offence is a reason to ban people.
But yeah, no, I was just, you know, mocking the Democrats, just posting the usual sort of nonsense, but it's not stuff that I think is ban worthy.
But yeah, so there's apparently, and the weird thing is, I can still see my notifications and stuff.
So I believe people are using the hashtag FreeSargon.
So if you could do me a favour and take to Twitter and use the hashtag to voice your opinion on the subject, I would greatly appreciate it.
And hopefully they'll restore me.
