I don't really know anything about the people you mentioned, I am not from the US. I know Sanders and Cruz but not about any instances of censorship.
Who do you think is the target of deplatforming which the current US government promotes? There are also articles about how deplatforming allegedly works, so it has to target some people I guess.
- abirch 5y agoThese other people that were mentioned are from all areas of the political spectrum. After the Capitol Attack in 2021, Twitter deplatformed then President of the United States for inciting violence. Who in the US Government do you think is leading the deplatforming?
- Jtype 5y agoJust because it was political doesn't mean that a particular person or group in the government was responsible.

In the US, I have not seen Facebook banning people for explicitly political reasons, and IIRC studies have not found any obvious partisan bias there. There are reasons for banning that overlap with politics, certainly, like promoting conspiracy theories, as those tend to be more common on the far left or far right.
