blatantly political biased and hypocritical approach to speech on its platform is absurd.

I don't know what pinkle did to get banned. Maybe he deserved it, maybe not. And while i have never voted to ban anyone on this board, i believe it is better without him.

Twitter gets special consideration as a purveyor or provider of news and opinion. The special consideration stipulates that twitter not be a political propaganda instrument for any political party or ideology. Words to that effect.

They have clearly broken with the rules of their charter and need to be revamped or replaced. Or at minimum, remove the special considerations granted to them.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
