What an embarrassing article. 1) ISIS is a group. White supremacy is an ideology. Correct comparison would be banning radical Islam. Twitter does not ban radical Islam.
2) Your tweet/headline is based on one employee's characterization, which was specifically rejected by Twitter

Twitter's real problem is they don't have consistent standards. They should stop trying to police speech and only focus on harassment because they have proven to be terrible at policing speech.
And given the left's tendency to baselessly accuse political opponents of bigotry and label anything they don't like as hate speech, it's fairly obvious what this push is intended to do.
Twitter would be done as a usable platform for political discussions if they gave in.

P.S. If Twitter did try to ban radical Islam, it would almost be guaranteed that a lot of regular Muslims would end up being caught up in the ban. Which is the point being made in the article about white supremacy. I doubt anyone would be cool with that, and nor should they be.
