That's the point, this is entirely hypocritical of them.
The past few years, media outlets have gotten to the point they don't even make a mild effort to hide their extreme biases anymore. There used to be standards, you used to have some measure of balance.
We are reaching full blown propaganda stage on most media types and outlets now. Its gotten so bad that you can't trust anyone. I know people who visit a balance of RT, BBC, and even Al Jazheera because it feels like thats how far they have to go to get a proper angle on anything.
Mind you Twitter is not CNN or something but still, have some damned class, its not hard.

ITT: Everyone using the Feminism and BLM tags are calling for x subgroup to be killed.
Milo probably deserved a ban at some point for something, just not this time.
I try to kinda do things with the same logic at training a puppy, and occasionally fail at this; If you bonk a puppy on the snout for pooping in the floor two hours after they do it, they have no idea why they are being punished, if you do it while they are pooping, it kinda sets in that they should do it outside.
If you ban someone for something they did "that one time" because they are doing something slightly disagreeable now, the ban isn't going to make a whole lot of sense. ...and yeah, I'm sure I've done this at some point.

I remember being taught a few things when I was much younger, chief of which is "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all". It'd be nice if we could go back to making that a thing: People who can't be respectful just keeping their mouths shut.

Hmmm... sometimes it's best to start with yourself.

MSNBC is just the less vile left-wing mirror of Fox News. I'm not sure why Fox seems so vile while MSNBC doesn't to me, but I'm sure that's just my views. *Shrugs*

Uhhh, I'm not sure which hosts you guys are watching. I remember Chris Matthews being especially vile. And no, I'm not so biased that I can't see it on the right as well. I can't watch Sean Hannity getting in discussions with people that disagree with him, because he interrupts and attacks them after half a sentence, jumping on the first out-of-place word.

Same reason why you don't see many/any right-wing comedians. Their policies are vile.

That... sounds a lot like a non-sequitur. What do comedy and right-wing policies have to do with each other? There are right-wing comedians, but you can't do a lot of right-wing comedy because the PC left often can't take a joke when it's about them.

So wait.
ISIS can use Twitter to recruit Jihadis.
BLM can use Twitter to instigate violence and riots.
British Femnazi's can declare all whitemen should die.
But the gay conservative named Milo Yiannopolis gets banned for being too extreme and promoting hate?

The Gamergate legion of sociopaths
What do you think gamergate was about?
Ethics in videogame journalism. Obvi
I thought Gamergate was just the Zoe Quinn thing that got blown out of proportion.
Are you sure it's not just a bunch of losers bitter at women and lashing out against them because they can't get laid? Because that's the impression I got from your post.
I've lost sight of who is actually arguing on which side for what purpose.
I'm bored of this discussion.

To be honest I usually feel I can trust RT for anything that doesn't have to do with Russia itself, eastern EU, and America.
That sounds like a lot but it gets me a lot more otherwise than other sources.
I'd say tied for 2nd are Al Jaz and BBC. They are each biased but its abundantly clear in which way, makes it easy to ignore various topics at a glance.
I can't even stand CNN, Fox, MSNBC. I can't touch them. I can't touch most Australian news sources that have internet sites either, even if their paper publications are decent despite that.
