Those steely-eyed defenders of the single viewpoint! Of course our resident leftists here will supply 50.6 reasons why such blatant anti-Antisemitism is not blatant anti-Antisemitism...but Twitter does it again. = Twitter has deemed the Star of David, a symbol of Judaism and Jewish pride, to be “hateful imagery”, and is locking the accounts of users who display it. Several Twitter users have contacted Campaign Against Antisemitism in recent days reporting that their accounts have been locked, and Twitter has provided the following rationale: “What happened? We have determined that this account violated the Twitter Rules. Specifically for: Violating our rules against posting hateful imagery. You may not use hateful images or symbols in your profile image or profile header. As a result, we have locked your account.” The social media platform advises users that if they delete the “hateful imagery”, i.e. the Star of David, the account may be unlocked. The Stars of David in the profile pictures of locked accounts vary from artistic blue Stars of David and graffitied white Stars of David to, most ironically, a portfolio of yellow Stars of David.

The whole story needs to be told: Twitter's Hateful Conduct Policy prohibits threats against people due to religious affiliation, and Twitter has disabled some accounts that used the Nazi-era 'yellow star' or ‘yellow badge’ symbol in their profiles for violating that rule. Twitter does not have a blanket prohibition against users' displaying the Star of David although in July 2020 they mistakenly locked some accounts for doing so even though those accounts were not in violation of Twitter's policies (and those accounts have since been restored). https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/twitter-star-of-david/ In a statement, Twitter clarified that even though it didn't consider the Star of David a hateful symbol, the "yellow star" or "yellow badge" have been used negatively against Jewish people on the platform. "We have for sometime seen the 'yellow star' or 'yellow badge' symbol being used by those seeking to target Jewish people," the company said. Jewish people were forced to wear yellow badges by Nazis during World War II. https://www.newsweek.com/twitter-banning-users-using-star-david-1519761
That's as clear as Ozzie Osbourne translating Joe Biden. So banned is banned, excuses notwithstanding?
but this doesn't support what you claimed that they "deemed the Star of David, a symbol of Judaism and Jewish pride, to be “hateful imagery." They have only banned it in so far as it alludes to the Nazi era "yellow star." a symbol that most Jews see as a sign of hate.
so you posted something that disagrees with your thesis? You also said this was "blatant antisemitism" which it is not.
