The problem will arise when twitter selectively enforces these rules on people with only one political stance.

Hypocrisy is a common human trait, and one that should be accounted for in such a process - it's hard to look at Twitter's past actions and assume they'll do this one perfectly.

Maybe, maybe not. In this case time will tell and considering the effect of their action seems relatively trivial, is this really worse than inaction?
