well whatever it decides to do, twitter should be clear and consistent about it’s rules and penalties for breaking them, enforcement should be unbiased, and the mechanisms of enforcement shouldn’t be easily abused by people who have an agenda

It is objectively the case that “conservative” political candidates were more negatively affected than “progressive” candidates.
Anyone using Twitter knows this. Question is simply one of magnitude.
Would be a service to the people to make public who was deboosted, when they were deboosted, and who made the request. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

You're correct, but not in the way you think. There's an internet adage that goes something like
"Any unmoderated forum will inevitably become right wing"
This is true because leftist ideology cannot withstand logical examination/scrutiny. It needs censorship to survive.

Newsflash: everybody who wasn't Donald Trump was simply expected to follow the rules we agreed to as part of using the site.
That's not censorship. That's special treatment only he got, freedom to ignore the rules. You and I would have been suspended.

Check out Bill C11.

“Conservative” candidates are more likely to lie, spread disinformation, incite violence, spread messages of fear and hate about “others” such as LGBTQ & BIPOC. They were justly punished and frankly got away with too much.

Have you gotten to the part where users are attributed to specific container servers in the effort to tilt the discussion and control those who didn't violate terms yet advanced speech against the moderation interests?

Perfect example is Matt Walsh trending in Tim Pool yesterday. If everything Tim Pool is in its own category it’s easier to mitigate.
Engineers that are left are showing everything as they undo it.. just no one’s paying attention.
