^^^ There is your hypocrisy. The hypocrites are those who play the civil liberties card only when it suits their ends.
If Twitter were my platform, I'd want it to be open to political views from different sides and free from politically biased moderation. But if my platform became the primary tool of an autocrat spreading blatant misinformation and propaganda, I would consider that abuse of the platform. Finally, if I had users who took it to the next level, using it to make threats and promote terrorism and overthrow of the government, they'd be banned. So Jack Dorsey did exactly what I would have done.
You seem to always find yourself on the same side as right wing authoritarians. Maybe someday you'll stop drinking from their propaganda hose.
