You are awesome btw Carey.
At the risk of sounding like a conspiracy nut 😉 I'd say that Facebook/twitter are purging the 'wrong' type of political content and commentary. Imo, this can only be happening under government duress as I'm not sure what is in it for them to ban anyone. After all, any type of content is driving views to those platforms.
As you rightly point out, a lot of peddlers of hate and bigotry are being allowed to speak, why not Anti-Media?
I'm glad you've found a voice here on steem where it's impossible to censor people 🙂
Glad someone else is noticing this !
All the divisive voices maskerating as alternatives to the mainstream are flourishing and promoted (the new left and the new right).
The anecdotal bans that they receive bring them more publicity than anything else.
The real alternative media is just being erased from the conversation.
All you can see in the alternative media on youtube for example is flat earth, Q anon BS and ramblings about immigration, as if that's the main issue in the world right now (as opposed to central banks for example).
