Twitter isn't going after extremists at all. Terrorists continue to post on Twitter right now. Totalitarian regimes carrying out genocide continue to tweet happily away on Twitter.

This is about going after anyone they think they should ban in order to keep the Democrats happy.

This is not about Trump for the technology companies. It's about bending the knee enough towards the Democrats to ensure that they retain as much of their freedom as possible. They are sacrificing others' freedoms in order to hopefully secure they own - although I think this is a Faustian bargain.

This. Malaysian ex-PM tweets that Muslims "have 'right' to kill French". Despite the outrage he's still free to tweet. Twitter cares about its image and its advertisers.

Hopefully.
