This is what happens when Twitter chooses to be the neighborhood speech cop, deciding what’s “misleading” or “acceptable” or “could confuse someone” or whatever.
Twitter then gets lobbied by one side to censor the other side. And Democrats are better at this woke outrage pressure campaign. Their entire activism infrastructure, from SJWs on up, seems to be designed to refine it.
Far better for Twitter to say: “Look, we’re not young children here. We don’t even allow young children to use Twitter! Politicians can choose what they want to say. You can choose what to believe. That’s the American way.”

But they don’t. Cowardice, or something else?
