Not having value is a value in itself. It takes a crazy amount of effort to be completely neutral.

Twitter is first and foremost a publishing platform, you should not rely on it as a private communication medium. None of the chat apps I know censor stuff, so use them instead.

Use Twitter for public communication if you want, but since it's in the public domain you can't complain too much if there is content moderation.

The phone company does a pretty good job of it, and we have regulations that force them to be mostly "neutral".

Those regulations have worked out quite well. Perhaps it time to expand our existing, and working regulations to other platforms, given that they work so well on existing platforms.

One-to-all broadcasting is a fundamentally different medium than one-to-one conversations.

The various messenger apps are closer analogs to phone companies and they have no or very light content moderation.

There are some differences, yes. But regardless of those differences, society has not collapsed because of those laws. Those laws work just fine.

So they could be extended to other things, and the world would also not collapse if that happened.

I dunno man. My email software seems to accomplish that feat quite easily.

Sure I can complain. When it's the defacto public forum any administrative conversation-tweaking is pure poison to our society.

And also, yes, there is an implicit promise that the conversation between you and me is not getting fucked with by an invisible rat in the middle. So when I smell one of those rats, heck yes I'll complain. That's objectively ratty.
