You're completely missing my point. Of course anyone with more than 2 neurons is on the side of "not lynching the VP". My point was that a company like Twitter should not censor people talking about the fact that rioters chanted "hang mike pence".


I'm not missing it, I'm disagreeing.

You can't say a company removing content is something China would do. It's the opposite. In an authoritarian regime, Twitter would be forced to be in lock step with the government, and the opposite is happening now. Think of it as checks and balances.
