Censorship of political rivals never does anyone a favor. How would you feel if people had said this same thing about Obama? Isn't it enough that over 90% of the mainstream (old) media coverage of Trump is negative for you? Do you REALLY need to ban him on Twitter?
- panic 9y agoObama wasn't setting policy or doing "diplomacy" on Twitter. If he were, I'd say the same thing. People asking for Twitter to ban Trump aren't all doing it because of their political "side" -- his use of the platform is harmful on its own.

Those prove that banning of political rivals is fine on Twitter. It's just a matter of where they draw the line, and whether or not they're willing to face the consequences of doing so.
