Aubrey Huff, former Giant turned internet troll, permanently suspended from Twitter

The two-time World Series champion, 44, took to Instagram to share a screenshot of a notification showing that the (Twitter) account is no longer available, expressing a few choice words for those who he blames for the suspension.

He wrote: "It finally happened! The beta cucks and liberal Karen's over @twitter hate when people speak the truth or make money if their liberal platforms!"

In the hours leading up to his Twitter ban, Huff took to Instagram to share footage of himself attending an anti-vaccination rally. In June, he criticized lockdown measures implemented due to COVID-19, claiming he would "rather die of coronavirus than wear a mask and live in fear."

Huff is an avid support of former President Donald Trump—who himself was banned from Twitter following the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

In addition:

• Back in November 2019, he posted a picture of himself holding a shooting target with holes, suggesting he was teaching his sons how to use a gun in the "unlikely event" Bernie Sanders beat Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential elections.

• In January 2020, he posted a tweet suggesting people should kidnap Iranian women, writing: "Let's get a flight over and kidnap about 10 each. We can bring them back here as they fan us and feed us grapes, amongst other things."

------------------------

He has two championship rings from his playing days with the Giants, though the second one, in 2012, was earned with only 52 games played due to injuries and "anxiety issues." Huff batted .192 with 15 hits, four doubles, one home run, and seven RBI. Meanwhile, the Giants are distancing themselves as far away from Huff as possible. He wasn't invited to the ten-year anniversary of the 2010 championship and won't be invited to the 2012 celebration either.

This is one of those instances where you expect Coronavirus Karma to win in the end, you know?

Rich people who choose to wallow in lies to take cash from the ignorant aren't about to risk themselves.

Tucker fishsticks and all the other Fox liars are vaxxed, and this wealthy sack of assholes is fully vaxxed too.

He's a hateful racist & a fascist fanboy but he's a phony covid warrior.

He's just grifting all the hateful racist, fascist fan boys who are genuine covid victims in waiting
