Well, mostly related to 1933 - 1945 references, if I recall it correct. Basically the "N-Word"-category, but related to jewish people. I think one tweet also said "Judenvernichtung" ("extermination of the Jews").
So, yeah, in hindsight, I should have modified the corpus. But at that time, around 2017, I was pretty angry at how Twitter handled these strikes.
P.S.: The account is still online and has 775 followers. Maybe I should revive it in a more "harmless" way. It was fun.
