You know that this announcement is made to win favor with Trump. I would not expect that leftism will be any more allowed

I agree. At the very least, it's using Trump as cover.

That said, if they remove the political filter, they're opening the door for all discussion (even from the left).

Of course, they could surreptitiously filter out the left. Hell, why not?

That's my guess as to what they intend to do.

Just moving the needle for allowed content to include transphobia and racism.
