Except I keep hearing about it constantly, everywhere, including Twitter. And yet I haven't seen a single one being banned for discussing fiscal policy, less regulation, conservative views on social programs etc. "Conservative voices [being] silenced" are almost always some variation of spamming evidently real-world damaging conspiracy theories or clear ToS violations.
I didn't say conservative - I said dissenting. Although I imagine many conservatives have learned to self-censor so they can remain part of the conversation there.
How about asserting that men and women are different biologically? Is that a conspiracy theory?
Or is it simply a dissenting viewpoint from the group-think of Twitter that was silenced...
> In late 2018, Twitter changed its policy on hateful conduct and harassment to officially prohibit intentionally calling a trans person by the wrong pronouns or using their pre-transition names.[62] Beginning in August 2018, Murphy stated that her Twitter account was locked more than once after she tweeted about issues involving trans women.[63] Twitter permanently suspended Murphy's account in late November 2018, after she referred to Jessica Yaniv, a trans woman, as "him".[64][65][66] On February 11, 2019, Murphy filed a lawsuit against Twitter in response to her banning.[67] The suit was dismissed in early June, but Murphy stated that she intended to file an appeal.[68][69]
Clear ToS violation. Which proves my point.
Sidenote: The Federalist itself got its account banned from twitter for spreading covid misinformation.
> Twitter isn't a liberal platform, and definitely has a political bias towards the progressive left.
[citation needed] seeing as your previous example fell flat.

I fail to see your point. They spread misinformation that would get people killed, and were banned for it.
I've not in my 30 years on the internet spent more than a passing moment on a BBS, forum, social media that let anything go, nor would I want to as I've seen what it devolves into.
You have not displayed any basis for your assertion that the moderation enforcement on twitter is biased.
Was it something like masks work or don’t work or something like Black Lives are more important than stopping the spread or outdoor activities are safe?
Ok, first search result says:
* The article, titled “How Medical ‘Chickenpox Parties’ Could Turn The Tide Of The Wuhan Virus,” argued that a “controlled voluntary infection” program could allow young people to return to work after contracting and recovering from the virus.*
The Times quotes the MD whose conjecture published by The Federalist caused so much twit-concern and then goes on to quote criticism of two not-MDs (using their title of “Dr.” but not establishing that they are academics and not medical doctors). [1,2]
To keep things fair the do cite an academic who is also an MD who “said he would not endorse intentionally infecting people, but added that it was worth considering ways to increase herd immunity while protecting vulnerable patients.” [3]
How is it you can claim that “they spread misinformation that would get people killed?” Something controversial, sure. “Would get people killed?” Thats silly.
