Shortly after he was named Twitter’s new CEO, Parag Agrawal drew criticism from conservatives Monday as old social media posts and interviews led some to question how Agarwal will handle censorship, especially of far-right sources, on the social media platform.

Agrawal tweeted in 2010, "’If they are not gonna make a distinction between muslims and extremists, then why should I distinguish between white people and racists.’"

This was a quote from “The Daily Show” correspondent Aasif Mandvi, Agrawal said at the time.
