The issue here is why Trump was singled out to be suspended, not whether he should have been or not. The comparisons w/ other leader who used Twitter to incite violence PRECISELY makes the point that what Trump did is on equal footing with them: using Twitter to incite violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Other world leaders who used Twitter to incite violence should have been suspended. But given that Twitter is a US company and became the medium through which the sitting US president incited an attack on the country’s center of democracy, he was surely a priority to suspend. — PolitiTweet.org

So, the argument to be made is why Twitter did not suspend other world leaders, not why Twitter deplatformed Trump in the first place. Again, the priority was shutting down the pipe through which insurrectionists received the green light to attack the Capitol. In the homeland. — PolitiTweet.org
