I mean that's the claim, the counter-claim would require a social network banning topics and not behavior. Note: As a user you can see topics, you can't see behavior. The fact that some users flood other users' DM's is not visible to all users. So how do you know?

"I don't trust left-y CEO's", is a fair enough answer, but really that's where the counter-claim seems to end. Now that we have a right-wing CEO, looks like the shoe is on the other foot[1]

True, but not really a good argument for the "trust us, this person needed banning, no we will not give any details"-style of moderation that most companies have applied so far. And you can see topics, so you'll generally notice when topic are being banned, not behavior, because they usually don't align perfectly.
