Twitter hides Donald Trump tweet for “glorifying violence”

I couldn't care less for the politics of the USA, but it is mildly amusing that twitter are trolling one of their most prominent users.

...and a particularly thinly skinned user.

... it is just as if they were intentionally trying to stir controversy, so that more and more people join the trollfest

I don't see what's so controversial about applying their rules to one of their users.

Moderating a prominent troll and raising the standards to the level of every other user, is not really politics.

There's nothing preventing Trump for saying 'I made a hasty remark in a moment of anger, and will maintain a more thoughtful and respectful tone in the future.' It's inarguable that Twitter has been very, very accommodating of him and tried the hands-off approach for a long time while explaining their reasons for doing so to their other users.

Oh, but it is. It is when the prominent troll is also POTUS.

You and Twitter may want it to not be politics... But unfortunately both doing nothing and doing something are political moves by Twitter HQ, I'm afraid.

If we ingore context, but without it this wouldn't be discussed.

To define Donald as a troll is also political statement.
