That's an interesting take. I will share just a single example that flew by earlier this week that is clear evidence of this policy not being followed, either by algorithms, or by manual followup.

Content moderation can be a challenging problem, but this is a clear failure of both algorithmic and human moderation processes, and there are an enormous number of these failures that lead to real harm in the form of radicalization and targeting of individuals and groups online and the real world.

To be fair this is very anecdotal given the volume of very subjective, context-dependent content that is on Twitter

Yeah, you know, it could be fake, or maybe the owner of that account wasn't literally calling to use nuclear weapons to kill Jewish people.

But come on, the account name is, literally on it's own, a violation of the first rule of the Twitter Safety rules.
