Weaponized Tweets

@weaponizedtweets

This is a collection of Tweets that have been deemed either as misleading, sexist, transphobic, or racist, and for good reason. We have taken these tweets from well know public figures and politicians and appropriated these harmful and dangerous quotes and appropriated them into words of encouragement, corrections, or a call to action. Twitter is seen by some as a place to speak your mind, but maybe we should think about the people and communities we may be harming before hitting the Tweet button.

The most recent obsession from the media claiming that I am a drag Queen or “performed” as a drag Queen is categorically false. The media continues to make outrageous claims about my life while I am working to deliver results.

I will not be distracted nor fazed by this.

My cousin in Trinidad won’t get the vaccine cuz his friend got it & became impotent. His testicles became swollen. His friend was weeks away from getting married, now the girl called off the wedding. So just pray on it & make sure you’re comfortable with ur decision, not bullied

@tedcruz

Gun control doesn’t work. Look at Chicago. Disarming law-abiding citizens isn’t the answer. Stopping violent criminals—prosecuting & getting them off the street— BEFORE they commit more violent crimes is the most effective way to reduce murder rates. Let’s protect our citizens.

In the beautiful Midwest, windchill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded. In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming? Please come back fast, we need you!

We need you to understand that climate change is real and we have real solutions.

Ben Shapiro

The question isn’t whether climate change is happening. It’s whether you have any solutions that aren’t crazy. And you screaming that it’s happening over and over isn’t a solution. It’s just posturing nonsense meant to agitate idiots in your base.

What the hell!

Do you think the answer will be free and profitable? These solutions aren’t crazy, you’re just an idiot.

How many of the women rallying against overturning Roe are over-educated, under-loved millennials who sadly return from protests to a lonely microwave dinner with their cats, and no bumble matches?

The Overtruning of Roe v. Wade will force birth on to women that will lead to under-loved children. Stop protesting against women with healthy sex lives.
