I think one point that gets lost is that over the past 50 or so years, the left leaning, counter culture would lean on and shout "Freedom of SPEECH" when they were trying to make statements that were not mainstream/accepted by society. It just feels duplicitous/revengeful for them to now do the same after winning the culture wars and say "oh that's the way it is, censorship is the norm".

Suggesting calls for social equality are somehow analogous to concerted disinformation campaigns strikes me as exceedingly intellectually dishonest.

There have never been disinformation campaigns in the name of social equality? Hmm, I'm skeptical, not least because I've seen a few, albeit on really controversial issues.

Not all of these issues were about "social equality", and not referring to qanon stuff exclusively.

Giant Silicon Valley corporations like Facebook and Twitter are not "The Left".
