If someone tweets "I hate trans people" nothing happens, if someone tweets "I hate cis people" the tweet gets immediately hidden and flagged for hateful content

I saw dozens replicating it last week and I was able to replicate it myself

Later edit: can confirm, I tried it and I got `Visibility limited: this Post may violate X’s rules against Hateful Conduct.`

This is rather disappointing and it might influence my stance on continuing to pay for Premium.
