I imagine this rule will affect anti-Semitic content that has been posted by @LouisFarrakhan, such as comparing the Jewish people to termites. Twitter says if dehumanizing tweets about religious groups are reported to it now, the company will require the user to delete them.
Twitter does add though that while tweets "that break this rule sent before today will need to be deleted," they "will not directly result in any account suspensions because they were Tweeted before the rule was set." blog.twitter.com/official/en_us…
Update: It appears Twitter has actioned @LouisFarrakhan's tweet comparing Jewish people to termites. When trying to visit the URL, an error message now reads, "Sorry, you are not authorized to see this status." The tweet was online just 20 minutes ago.
Twitter spokesperson confirms to me that it has actioned @LouisFarrakhan's 2018 tweet comparing Jewish people to termites, which violates new rule prohibiting dehumanizing language against religious groups. Farrakhan will be unable to tweet until the tweet is removed.
