Right, so people are arguing against that baseline rule.

A baseline rule prohibiting threatening violence, most people agree with, but apparently it is a controversial attack on free speech if a private website wants to moderate the use of its platform to promote hatred against people based on the color of their skin.

And banning racism is being held as an example of liberal bias! Amazing.

Not all speech is protected, for good reasons that cannot be blithely dismissed with a truism.
