Both policies ban you from threatening or glorifying violence in most scenarios . However, the new set of rules appears to expand on some concepts while cutting down on some others. For example, the old policy stated:
Statements that express a wish or hope that someone experiences physical harm, making vague or indirect threats, or threatening actions that are unlikely to cause serious or lasting injury are not actionable under this policy, but may be reviewed and actioned under those policies.You may not wish, hope, or express desire for harm. This includes hoping for others to die, suffer illnesses, tragic incidents, or experience other physically harmful consequences.
The company also says that punishment — which usually comes in the form of an immediate, permanent suspension or an account lock that forces you to delete offending content — may be less severe if you’re acting out of “outrage” in a conversation “regarding certain individuals credibly accused of severe violence.
