Against #Twexit:
If all the free-thinkers quit Twitter & move to Instagram or whatever, the same censorship will happen there within 6 months. This is the place to take a stand -- where we built our followers, reputations, & influence. If we give up here, we'll lose everywhere.

While I agree with you on moral grounds, this isn’t censorship. And the best way to respond to actions you don’t like, taken by a private entity, is to build your own competitor platform.
And how do you protect your new platform from ideological takeover?

The better run it is the less likely that is to happen, no? But it is a possibility, as with any platform, including Twitter itself. Again, I agree with you morally, just as I agree with far-leftists who decry the mainstream news outlets not inviting people like Chomsky on...

... but I don’t think they are censoring Chomsky by failing to invite him on, and the far-left have done very well with their own news outlets (e.g. Democracy Now). Similarly, some members of the “IDW” have done well with their own podcasts.
