For political speech
And Trump was banned for multiple years, this Dem account was blocked 1 hour and people are already crying wolf

Oh yeah, which exact political speech? Cause these two things are not symmetrical at all.
Lets compare the reasons and speeches rather then hiding behind "political" euphemism.

Yeah, they're not symmetrical, DT was treated much much worse
Trump was banned for years and that seems to be ok with you
A Dem account is banned 1 hour and you cry wolf

People are too emotionally invested in their side to care about any principles unfortunately
Freedom of speech? We don't want that for the "other side"
Censorship? Yes please, but only for the "other side"
Arguing in bad faith? Anything just to make the "other side" look unflattering
