Are you suggesting that platforms should be held responsible for all content posted on their respective sites? I personally feel that is an absurd burden and simply won't work.
In May of 2019, 500 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute. How could a platform possibly be held accountable for that sheer volume of content? YouTube already tries to do this, but AI is only so good and hiring that many humans to both watch the content and report on it is a massive undertaking.
It would make sense to pursue Twitter if they are in fact acting in _bad faith_, but not being able to read all 9255 tweets posted _every second_ doesn't seem like a reason to punish Twitter.

Maybe it's how you use language and not the idea?
Saying that Twitter should be held accountable for illegal content is fairly agreeable, even if it's a huge burden.
However, in the eyes of the leftist cesspool twitter is, if you say you want to remove article 240 to hold twitter accountable for distributing illegal content via tweets, then suddenly you're a Trump supporting alt right conspiracy theorist.
