Twitter censors user for an eight month old tweet about Kyle Rittenhouse: A Twitter user who is a somewhat popular conservative political commentator reported that his account was just locked over a tweet from late November. He was forced to delete the tweet in order to regain access to his account. The offending tweet read: "BREAKING: Black Rifle Coffee tells me they DID NOT pull their sponsorship with Blaze after Rittenhouse was pictured wearing a BRC t-shirt. Various media reports state they were working to end the sponsorship, it appears that may no longer be the case. #KyleRittenHouseIsAHero." According to the screenshot of the censorship notice that the user shared, Twitter claimed that this tweet violated its "rules against glorifying violence."
