Very basic lesson...
The loud minority is not the vast majority...
Even if, when mainstream starts talking about it, it's certainly won't stay a vast majority for much longer...
Twitter lifting such divisive things like special rules to protect feelz on a platform where you don't have to let the world know who you are is a good move.
Those that felt attacked by that policy now don't and if it was a real problem we will certainly notice, now that everyone can finally speak about it freely on Twitter.

And you again lack the reading comprehension to see we agree and the two examples you brought are an important legislative step to handle the issue beneficially so cheers to that.
Twitter didn't cancel anything, they put an end to cancle culture.
I can't imagine how long you're personal cancel list must be.
To me it's the most annoying human trait, always trying to cancel others.
I'm glad Twitter stopped that non-sense, others might choose to keep being annoying humans by trying to cancel others.
At least now they can be called out, and can't just play shadowbanned victim without facing reality.
it will be really healty for the public discourse, as healty as Twitter gets...

Plot twist... Twitter wants you to get really nasty, maybe something ending with a teen committing suicide.
big papertrail needed to actually pin it on the use of language, so better not interfere by banning accounts.
It might need more than that one teen, and Twitter is a great breeding ground for those sort of dramas to be milked...
A legislative will be demanded as to what is deemed offensive speak and what not.
In the streets you'll hear them say,
banning isn't enough, make them pay.
Might be prudent and not take this as an invitation to go out calling everyone deluded, or whatever slurs one could come up with...
Those that don't learn from history are bound to repeat it...

"There is no such thing as 'misgendering' and 'deadnaming' and nobody is obliged to pander to the delusions of a tiny group of adults who believe they are the opposite gender and demand others to verify and validate their delusions."
Exactly!!

Since you agree with me I suppose you are a Trump supporter and right wing conspiracy theorist.
