A social-media account for white male supporters of Kamala Harris was briefly suspended from X, formerly Twitter, sparking anger online.
Newsweek observed that the White Dudes for Harris X account had been temporarily suspended after the group held a star-studded virtual call on Monday night that raised more than $4 million.
Mike Nellis, who is involved in the organization, shared an update on Tuesday explaining that while the X account is live again, it still remains suspended.
He said the account is "permanently in read-only mode," meaning it cannot post or interact with content and cannot create new accounts. Nellis called on supporters to continue donating to Harris' campaign, writing: "Don't let them silence us."
When contacted by Newsweek for comment, X's press office responded: "Busy now, please check back later."
White Dudes for Harris on Monday held a Zoom call fundraiser featuring celebrities including actors Jeff Bridges, Mark Ruffalo and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
It also included appearances from Democratic politicians, including Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker. The group said that 190,000 people tuned in to the call. The West Wing actor Bradley Whitford joked on the call that it was like "a rainbow of beige."
Comment:
The Democrats are attempting to get white men to vote for Harris.
The "weird" White Dudes for Harris group probably broke the X rules.
The Democrats have a very specific hatred for white people and men.
White Dudes for Harris is kind of like chickens for KFC.
It is "weird".
