“They haven’t got a hate speech policy, they have a Trump policy,” sniffed a Facebook exec

“Patently false,” Gadde said. She also strongly rejects the critique that Twitter’s shot-calling is driven by partisan politics. "

Anyone believe that?

I'll believe Twitter the moment they release data on the break down of people they have blocked, especially their blocks and sometimes downright harassment of blue checks and other high end users.

"Gadde herself doesn’t shrink from the notion that she wants to help make a more comfortable and empowering world for marginalized people."

If this is your world view...how could you possibly ever not take a side?

"@nypost was a perfect example of just how hard Twitter’s new, more restrictive approach can be, especially with fast-moving news...Twitter's concern? The materials at the center of the story had been hacked, and revealed the personal information of people featured in the story."

Again, why should we respect someone that acted on this hacked information...but not that of President Trump's taxes (which, also, must have been illegally released)?

"Tweeted Will Chamberlain, “Hi @vijaya ! What evidence do you have that the Hunter Biden materials were hacked?”...When users found that they still couldn’t post the Post link, many began to wonder if Twitter was talking out of both sides of its mouth."

"Gadde is quick to say that content moderation is a team job, and also an extremely difficult one. “Speech is one of the most anthropologically complex things imaginable, and our rules have to meet that complexity.”"

Yes. A team dominated by liberals.
