Ann Coulter posted a link to a recent article on her websitetitled To Say, Stop Raping Me! In English, Press 1 Now on Twitter earlier this week. She added the comment,Liberals are all for rape, provided that the penis forcibly inserted in you is attached to an illegal immigrant.

Coulter said she received an email from Twitter support informing her that the tweet had been flagged as violating Twitters hateful conduct policy. Twitters policy defines hateful conduct as:

Coulter replied to the complaint by stating, This warning is absolutely in error! It has obviously been generated by a computer because a human would read the linked column and find the proof that this tweet is completely, 100% truthful fact by fact, in side-by-side cases. It is not a joke, not hate, it is just the truth.

Twitter has a lengthy history of ignoring hate speech when it comes from those on the left, such as Ghostbusters(2016) actress Leslie Jonesor rapper Talib Kweli, who called Breitbart News Jerome Hudson a coon, yet Coulters tweet was quickly flagged by the social media platform.

Twitters warning email also noted, if it is determined that the flagged content does not violate our hateful conduct policy, Twitter may still withhold content in Germany if the content appears to violate the laws of Germany. In April, Germanys Cabinet approved a bill that would fine social media sites like Twitter up to 50 million euros if they fail to swiftly remove illegal content such as hate speech.
