Twitter can suspend anyone and anything for any reason. You play on someone else's server you play by their terms.

Yes, but then, why should there be laws that shield these services from any legal responsibility as to what their users post? The government shouldn't need to protect these businesses either and let them off the hook because of the scale of the moderation. it goes both ways. Private companies can accept whatever they want, the government doesn't have to protect them either, they are a private company after all. They should bear all the risk.
That doesn't mean I'm necessarily in favor of preventing these companies from moderating things. It just concerns me to see such obvious aspects disregarded.
But… it should concern people the concerted effort to censor anything including the truth if it doesn’t fit a particular narrative.
What is Twitter decided hey, they wanna be on the side of the police and now anyone reporting anything that goes against the police narrative gets banned, true or made up. Does that sound okay?
It’s effed up of people think that that’s okay because they are a private company and it’s their platform…
