Sure. I don't mean that it's unequivocally part of a conspiracy. But like I said, It can't go unaddressed. This isn't a Hacker news story about a banned app. It's international news, and the news isn't about WSB's (admittedly) bad language.

It's international news -- so the spotlight is on. Probably most of the Internet is unsavory and nobody cares because nobody knows.

Social networks were forced to moderate with the capitol riots. Now they have to moderate left wing mob organization on their platforms to avoid the perception they will only censor the right wing.

If that was the thinking, they would be shutting down the groups that are organized and protesting in the pacific northwest.

WSB is less left-wing, more Libertarian. I routinely see them shit on both the left and right.

This is clearly a slippery slope. Regulate once, regulate twice, and so on...
