So because their policy doesn’t go far enough, then they shouldn’t be allowed to have a policy?

I find this argument to be uncompelling.

A policeman who doesn't fine anybody is merely incompetent. A policeman who fines only black people is downright evil. You cannot say that his actions amount to "not going far enough" because he fails to fine people of other races. They are actively discriminatory.

The same situation happens with twitter, that only enforces its rules when they go against the mainstream USA mentality.
