The tweet read:

“Do you support Trump? No? Look to your left, does that person does? No? So it’s the one on the right, go ahead and please punch that person in the face.”

Shortly after Cernovich shared the tweet, Carvalho deleted his Twitter account.

Beyond Google failing to address the call to violence from one of its employees, the incident also highlights Twitter’s inconsistent standards when it comes to applying its own rules.
