Elon Musk’s Twitter has suspended several accounts belonging to extreme leftist Antifa groups following years of incitement to violence culminating in threats to commit arson against Tesla facilities.
Journalist Andy Ngo tweeted the details, noting that while some accounts are suspended, others remain active:
A violent extremist propaganda site that makes printable radicalization texts for #Antifa recruits has been suspended under @elonmusk’s Twitter. Crimethinc wrote materials brainwashing readers into violent hatred of the state, police & property ownership. https://t.co/zGjhdn9NQO

Crimethinc disseminated texts brainwashing readers to violent extremism, praised domestic terrorist attacks against the state, & instructed people on how to commit violent crimes. You call it a “culture jamming anarchist publication”? What did you call ISIS propaganda? https://t.co/5liGW9tcd5

Violent extremist #Antifa collective @crimethinc has been suspended at the moment. The international group operates like ISIS: makes propaganda & training material to radicalize militants toward violence. Though the main account was suspended, they operate a dozen other accounts: pic.twitter.com/36mI2T1rq2

Portland #Antifa group @Westrikeback161, who organizes window smashing & vandalism on businesses, has been suspended. "161" is the dog whistle number for AFA (Antifascist Action). Antifa have been urging violent retribution against @elonmusk for removal of their violent accounts. pic.twitter.com/Li3GINLdGP

Update: The violent extremist #Antifa account in Portland who is organizing the arson direct action against @Tesla tonight has been suspended. The account listed addresses of Tesla properties across the US for comrades to attack as vengeance against @elonmusk. https://t.co/FPipsqxeEu pic.twitter.com/T4EkFsJ1tv
