When the platforms starting censoring during the pandemic and last election cycle I remember saying they better get it right 100% of the time because the moment they get it wrong their credibility is shot. Hear we are.

Censorship, beyond what’s required by law, is doomed to fail.

I still remember that so many people cheered when legitimate doctors and scientists were banned from Twitter or Facebook, just for questioning either the lockdown or the effectiveness or risks of the vaccines. The doctors may not be correct, but shouldn't we allow people to question science? Our government can do what it does because the people embolden them.

I didn't see a lot of people banned for questioning. Most people were banned for authoritatively affirming things.

(But then, that "a lot" is there for a reason. There has been some bad behavior from the platform too.)

You clearly were not on “the other side” of the mainstream Covid narrative. There absolutely was plenty of banning going on.
