Really? I am the GP and don't like the alt-right at all. Where is the code phrase book? I'd like to take a look at it so that I don't confuse anyone else.

Fact is, Twitter has banned people selectively not only in the US but also across the world when tweets fall outside an ideological boundary or the views of the local government. As a private company, it's their right to do so but the world would be better served by a platform that guaranteed freedom of speech.

I apologize for making an unwarranted assumption about you. There has been so much talk about "Twitter censorship" where it really seems to mean "Milo Yiannopoulos and Breitbart should be able to continue trolling even when their methods violate Twitter's ToS".
