Journalists begging social media companies to censor anyone, but particularly the president, is bizarre, to put that generously.

But Trump-era journalism has inverted all values about what journalism's role, so - like ratting out a source to the FBI - this will be celebrated:
Silicon Valley never wanted the power or responsibility to censor (not because they're benevolent but becasue it's not a burden they wanted).

This duty to censor was foisted on them, largely by liberals & their journalists, who demanded that online discourse be regulated.
