Twitter also suspended the accounts of the Virginia-based National Policy Institute, an alt-right, white nationalist think tank of which Spencer is president, and of the Radix Journal, a magazine run by Spencer. "I was using Twitter just like I always used Twitter: to give people some updates and maybe comment on a news story here and there." Instead, Spencer said he thinks this was a "coordinated effort to just wipe out alt-right Twitter" in response to arguments that social media helped elect Donald Trump as president. The left knows social media helped Trump and is cracking down," tweeted another. Finally, Spencer mentioned that he might transition to GAB, a social media platform used by many who identify with the alt-right.
