In January, I posted a quote by Michelle Obama. I don't even remember the context, but apparently this triggered some sad little leftist and I got reported!
I just now (in April!) got a report saying that no one at Pinterest could find such a quote.
Here is part of the notice I just got from them (the bolded text is my exact post):

Of course, it wasn't hard to find. It's on YouTube. (OMG! Did they forget to scrub it from the internet?!)
