Twitter apologizes for 'Kill all Jews' trending topic

Twitter is apologizing for the fact that "Kill all Jews" appeared as a trending topic on its platform Friday.

In a statement, a representative from Twitter said the phrase should not have appeared on the trending topic list and that "we’re sorry for this mistake."

"This was trending as a result of coverage and horrified reactions to the vandalism against a synagogue in New York," it said. "Regardless, it should not have appeared as a trend."

"At times, we do prevent certain content from trending and we have now done so with this trend."

BuzzFeed first reported on Twitter's statement.

Maybe appealing to the right wing fringe isn't such a good idea.

1. But will it become a trend?

I keep seeing more and more anti-Semitism and have for over two years. Sadly, most people are just now realizing the level and seriousness of this. Many people are showing their true colors.
