Why is Twitter promoting rape tweets?

Her writing it comes across as "wow, I can't believe I just heard that", to me. She quotes it with no indication she was agreeing, but as something interesting, shocked someone would say that. (Probably because it is exactly NOT something people would generally say.)<p>I understand if you think they should filter certain words from being promoted, there's a conversion to be had there, but how could you possibly think she was advocating rape in any way?

That they don't have a blacklist of words for this is beyond me...

This would be a PR nightmare for Twitter if it got out into mainstream media … and rightly so.
