French far-right weekly barred from Twitter over anti-Semitism

Activists celebrate victory over hate speech; only last week Rivarol magazine tweeted that hatred for Jews was understandable and deserved to increase further

19.02.2019

PARIS — A French far-right magazine had its Twitter account suspended Monday, French officials said, after multiple complaints of hate speech including anti-Semitic abuse.

Rivarol’s Twitter account “called for racial hatred and sympathized with crimes against humanity”, a spokesman for the government’s racism, anti-Semitism and discrimination body (DILCRAH) said, adding it had repeatedly reported the account to the social media platform.
