Empty gesture by Twitter
The Trump Twitter ban is great and all, but they only banned him after he'd been voted out, as a token gesture to save face for giving him a platform for the last 4 years or more. An utterly meaningless gesture on their part. If they really gave a shit about opposing fascism, they would ban Rowling and her little terf gang too. Twitter has proven that they will tolerate fascism on their platform as long as the fascists appear to be winning. When fascism returns again in 4 or 8 years or so, they will permit it. They will be partly responsible for it.
The only way to avoid this return of fascism is to come down HARD on Trump and everyone who aided and abetted him; and by that I mean "convict them all of treason and sedition." Which is, incidentally, a capital offense. I'm praying as hard as I can for them all to get executed for their crimes. It really is the only way to send the most effective message that fascism will not be tolerated.
It occurs to me that by giving him a platform for so long, Twitter's management could also be said to be guilty of aiding and abetting Trump's fascism. Perhaps taking that seriously and adding them to the treason convictions will teach these social network people to treat fascism as harshly as they treat child pornography.
