X Censorship Sneaks Back In

by Sharon Rondeau

(Oct. 7, 2025) — Between late December and July of this year, both X accounts of retired educator, historian, “trusted” art-seller and author Johannes Froebel-Parker were shuttered for contrived or non-existent reasons.

Following numerous appeals, including two handwritten letters sent by certified mail to X CEO Elon Musk, Froebel-Parker discovered his secondary account, Parcarius, was restored on April 3.

On July 24, his primary account, @Froebel, was reactivated.

In order to advertise on the platform, Froebel-Parker had completed the verification process as evidenced by the blue checkmarks next to both account names.

On Monday evening, Froebel-Parker was surprised to receive a notice from X stating his main account was “locked.”

“We have determined that the account violated the X Rules,” the warning said.

When The Post & Email asked preceded the suspension, Froebel-Parker provided us with a screenshot he had shared of a post stating, on the eve of the two-year anniversary of the attacks by Hamas on the Nova Music Festival in southern Israel, “Palestinian terrorists showed her no mercy.”

“They gunned her down at the Nova festival alongside her father on October 7th 2023,” the post by Oli London continues.

On October 18, 2023, the New York Post reported:

The bodies of an Israeli father and his 16-year-old disabled daughter were finally found 12 days after they were slaughtered by Hamas terrorists who attacked a music festival, Israel confirmed.

Erick Peretz and his daughter Ruth — who was wheelchair-bound with cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy — were located by volunteers on Wednesday at the site of the Supernova Sukkot Gathering near the Re’im Kibbutz, where at least 260 Israelis were massacred, according to officials and local reports.

The Peretzes’ story has been widely reported by other outlets.

“They made me tick a box saying I was a human,” Froebel-Parker told us as to how the account was unlocked, adding that the “ominous ‘you violated X rules’ when posting a candle for a murdered victim of Oct. 7” was “very weird.”

“Thank you for addressing the issue,” X generated in response. “Your account is now available for use. To prevent future lockouts for account suspension, please review the X Rules and help us maintain a safe environment for everyone on X.”

The “Rules” address “Safety,” “Privacy” and “Authenticity,” among other considerations.

According to Wikipedia, 378 people were killed at the Nova Festival two years ago today our of a total of 1,200 Israel deaths and untold psychological trauma.
