If you run a service like Twitter or Facebook, you just can't win.
Your systems are being gamed by huge nation states with almost unlimited budgets. Your services are being used to spread disinformation and propaganda under "free speech". People also assume that, not only do they have a right to read this disinformation, but also a right for it to be broadcasted and amplified.
If you block these sources, people hate you.
If you allow them to exist, people hate you and you might destabilize elections and democracies.
What a terrible position to be in.
