So then, your argument is that you would support literally any form of deplatforming or censorship, no matter how extreme?
Thats what my question was. To rephrase, my question was effectively "how extreme will these measures get?".
And it seems like your answer to that question is "You don't care at all how extreme they get, as long as they fulfil your objective. There is literally no possible extreme to which you would not support, on this topic of censorship/deplatforming".

Yes, when your side turns to violence it is time for you to be deplatformed. That includes governments that use violence against their citizens.

But you are saying that there is no possible extreme which you would not support? No matter what?
Government executing people in the streets, by the thousands for criticising it, justified? Soviet or china style re-education camps for citizens by the millions?
There is no possible extreme for which you would say "this censorship has gone too far!", And therefore you are completely unconcerned about any sort of escalation, no matter how extreme the crackdown gets?
When Armed idiots stop attacking the capitol building and calling for the assassination of duly elected public officials in an attempt to overthrow a democratic government.
