Has Twitter committed to two sidism neutrality, or has it, like reddit, made no statement about their political affiliation?

If it hasn't, does this mean they are free to ban every conservative viewpoint from their platform, like T_D does for liberal ones? If not, why are we letting T_D behave in such a way?

Because the people who run Reddit have said many, many times that as long as moderators enforce the site-wide rules, that mods (and users to an extent) have the freedom to run the subs however they see fit, post whatever they wish, and yes, by golly, call people by terms dubbed by some as "hate speech"

That is literally not true. Reddit has removed many many outright racist and far right forums.
