Come get your employee, @AryNewsOfficial. He's drunk and genocidal. https://twitter.com/adeelraja/status/1393970858134282240

The Gods of @Twitter -- you had enough sense to give me a blue checkmark; how about revisiting the decision to expel @MarewaGlover, a New Zealand public health academic who has fought tirelessly on behalf of MΔori women? I forget what the ban was over, so it was likely trivial.
We need verified users to ask twitter support to request reinstatement of @MarewaGlover π
Up for a tweet to #DrGloverMatters @GregTHR?
Twitter has a class system. Verified users get listened to more & appear in searches more.

1/2 I go off on one in the BMJ rapid responses about anti-science posturing, personal abuse and Matthew Myers, the president of anti-vaping activist group @TobaccoFreeKids. A response to intellectually thuggish comments about @JUULvapor and its science.
