So a couple platforms banning one guy from continuing to attempt an insurrection of the federal government counts as suppressing your political opponents?

Would you assert that politicians are by definition untouchable, no matter what they do? Literally. I know your man bragged about this, but was he joking or not?

right. in other words, it was justified and necessary for your democracy to survive.

next example: which 'wing' cheered at COVID misinformation, such as the lab leak theory, being voluntarily suppressed by every platform?
