That is a lie for public consumption. It is not just based on some general behaviour. The accounts of multiple notorious Republican congressmen are being shadow-banned. They could openly whitelist the accounts of all members of Congress if they wanted to remove any appearance of politically-motivated, selective animus.

I'm looking for the non-public moral reasoning.

[added] For instance, I could tentatively understand an argument that anyone who promotes the violent overthrow of the Republic should be banned, or at the least not be promoted, within the platform. (That particular angle, by the way, is not how Twitter operates.)

Haha. Am I being downvoted by people who really really want me to swallow PR, or by sundry communists?

[sincerely]

With all due respect, I don't see how "the accounts of some republican congressmen are being shadowbanned" necessarily implies "shadowbanning isn't based on general account behavior". Could you explain?

Ok, what do the shadow-banned Republican representatives Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, and Devin Nunes have in common?
