The account once pretended the congresswoman supported a member of ISIS.
Days after Facebook banned several controversial commentators, including far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, Twitter has barred a"parody" account that once pretended Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez supported a member of terrorist group, ISIS.
Corbin Trent, a spokesperson for Ocasio-Cortez, told Newsweek the representative's office was not involved in the suspension of the @AOCpress account. Human Events maintained Morrison had not broken the social media giant’s rules, which do allow for “parody” or “fan” accounts. These profiles must be clearly marked as parodies “in a way that can be understood by the intended audience.” They must also follow Twitter’s standard rules for all accounts.
