My take has some nuance so you will probably never see it on the likes of Twitter: I'm against mob violence, I hate the death penalty, but I'm still okay with de-platforming. It has a use. There is a difference between "This person is inciting violence" and "This person is disagreeing with us" and the line has not been blurred yet. I'm glad Trump got banned, because he is an Internet troll who happens to hold office. I'm glad that a few rioters were arrested. I hope they are convicted and serve jail time. I hope they live to realize why they were wrong. If they die it means I will never have them on my side. I don't want anyone to die. Death, unlike de-platforming, cannot be undone if it turns out we are wrong. So please don't lump me in with people calling for guillotines and mob violence.
