I think you need to be more honest with your analysis of the figurative language you use. Because those two phrases are not the same, either figuratively, nor contextually.
"You arn't helping yourself"
Is what, "Hang yourself, keep talking"
And "Sink your own ship" mean.
There is not one person reading this, old enough who has paid attention to a variety of news events, as to which, they see a person accused, who just doesn't know when to shut up. Rudy IS haginging himself. And it has nothing to do with what blacks have gone through historically.
Most of the posts on social platforms aren’t monitored by actual people, but by programmes designed to look for certain words and phrases. Algorithms aren’t sophisticated enough to decide what you mean, they have to go by what you say.
For example, if I were to say, ‘Brian, go fuck yourself’, it might register an alert. On the other hand, if I were to say, ‘Brian, it would be in the best interest of all concerned if you were to insert yourself into yourself repeatedly until a point of gratification is reached’, it’s unlikely anything would happen.
That being said, most people who get bounced from Twitter were acting the twat, so that was probably what happened to you.
