We don’t tweet about Trump a lot, but this is bullshit and is intended to have a chilling effect on private businesses attempting to finally enforce their Terms of Service. Banning racists, harassers and conspiracy theorists should have nothing to do with political beliefs.
If the president wants to conflate those types of accounts with conservatism, that’s his business, but ultimately, rules are rules, we all signed up for them and they should be enforced equally. If they are influenced by politics, that’s admitting that rules mean nothing.
This is the reason why everyone is rightfully giving @jack hell about Alex Jones. It’s not because he has certain political beliefs. It’s because he has waged harassment campaigns against Sandy Hook parents and Las Vegas shooting victims and that breaks @Twitter’s Terms.
Ultimately, the only way anyone is going to trust these platforms is for them to give us all clear enforcement policies for their rules and enforce them unequivocally. Then this debate will be over.
