#Bangladesh has reached a point where an 18 year old young woman was drenched in petrol & set on fire in her school in broad daylight. Her crime was her unwillingness to withdraw a sexual harassment case against the school principal. Complete lawlessness.

Exactly. #Tump has been banned from Twitter. Why is #Modi, who was even officially branded a terrorist for his mass murder of Muslims not banned? They even rarely ban #RSS hateful thugs! Time & time again we have seen @jack @Twitter allow #Islamophobia. This is unacceptable.
It would seem logical to ban @narendramodi from Twitter for inciting the mass murder of more than 2,000 Muslims in 2002 and then another 50 in 2019, not to mention the way in which he has mass radicalized Indian society to pre-genocidal levels. #ModiNext.
