Banning certain words does not affect the content neutrality of a site.
TD is a private enterprise and can, and does, restrict the speech of its posters.
The Merriam-Webster definition of neutral is: 1. not engaged on either side;
specifically : not aligned with a political or ideological grouping.
If you see the political forum of TD as neutral, then you are engaging in self-deception. It is as right-leaning as FB, Twitter and others are left-leaning. The latter are just much bigger and more influential.
Talk radio is dominated by right-leaning talking heads, the MSM is under the control of left wing owners and social media is mainly influenced by the left. That’s just the way it is here in the early part of the 20th century.
The word neutral left the American political lexicon decades ago.

Twitter needs to be completely wiped from the earth. It is nothing but poisonous slime.

If the Brits are going to start arresting people simply for being assholes, they’re going to run out of jail space.

That would be because of the users not the site owner or admins.

Immature @ 35. Wonder if he was still living at home.

I don’t see anything in your amended post with details of 47 USC 230 that supports a difference between TD and the left wing platforms we’re discussing.
To me, this is the most important, and pertinent, item in the code:
Would you want government regulation of this market?

And then, the OT & MSB, for example, are not nearly as right leaning as the PT. Demonstratively so.

They are gravitating to the platforms because of actions by the owners and admins, however.

This is what you landed on the beaches of France for, old vets. This is what you broke ankles while parachuting in for. This is what you burned in that tank for.
This.
This.

No people are fleeing from places like FB, Twitter & IG because they are being silenced/banned because of wrong think.
People aren't banned here because they lean or are left.

Cringe worthy thing to say, but if cringe worthy behavior is criminal, why the frick isn’t Miley Cyrus in jail?

This is what happens when you give up your guns.
