Twitter didn't ban a former prime minister of Malaysia for stating "Muslims have the right to be angry and kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past" in the wake of a school teacher being beheaded by a Muslim parent, angered that pupils were being taught freedom of speech includes freedom to offend.

Does Twitter enforce these policies most of the time? Were those tweets direct calls for particular acts of violence against particular people? Because the problem messages on Parler were direct calls for the killing of particular US politicians. You know - the kind of stuff that can get the FBI knocking on your door.

Given the other comment earlier in this subthread, I am not sure if you are legitimately professing a truly extreme form of cultural relativism, or are simply not arguing this in good faith.

But let's not guess. Let's look what actually happened to Mahathir Mohammad and Twitter. [1]

> Twitter took action against a message from the former Prime Minister of Malaysia, Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, on Thursday that declared, “Muslims have a right to be angry and to kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past.”

> The post violated Twitter's glorification of violence policy, which requires the violator to remove the tweet before they’re able to tweet from the account again.

Right. I'm going to go with 'probably not arguing this in good faith.'
