Twitter itself plays a significant role in promoting antisemitism. In the UK, the rapper Wiley recently went on a 48-hour anti-Semitic rant on Twitter; he not only spread a number of conspiracy theories and insults against Jews, but also said that they should be shot and that he was coming to ”sit with” them in Golders Green, a Jewish neighborhood in London. Despite thousands of complaints, Twitter left most of the rapper’s tweets up for six days and only decided to ban him for life after a 48-hour boycott of the platform by thousands of British users, including Home Secretary Priti Patel.
