You've missed, or rather twisted his argument which is rather simple and accurate: it's utterly hypocritical to simultaneously condemn other outlets like Reddit, Twitter, etc for suppressing free speech, while at the same time sitting in GAW and railing about those who QuEsTioN tHe PLaN, downvote those who perhaps might not see exactly eye to eye about Trump et al, and mod(s) flippantly bragging about instabaning people for discussing evidence and theories which might not be universally agreed upon within this community.

Yes, this is a refuge for those who were censored by other platforms... or at least it's supposed to be a refuge... and yet far too often it isn't. That's his point. It's valid and easily proved simply by the fact that crayon eaters have down voted him for merely making an accurate observation.
