Watkins maintains one Telegram channel strictly for his own missives and another where subscribers can also post. He promotes the latter and has described it as his “associated chat channel.”
Watkins professes to loathe censorship of any kind, once writing, “Tyrannical leaders despise free speech.”
Like many who’ve been permanently suspended from Twitter, Watkins cheered Elon Musk’s plan to buy the platform. “Mark my words, this will end with FULL restoration of free speech,” he wrote of Musk’s interest in Twitter in April.

The year-long bans are enacted by a bot called “SecOfDef.”
