Is he "stuck on the sidelines," or is he free to compete against other men?

In PJ Media, Tyler O'Neil brings us this story.

On Wednesday, Twitter suspended the account of Greg Scott, director of media at The Heritage Foundation. Scott tweeted out an article about a male who identifies as a woman and who was booted from competing in women's weightlifting. The NBC News headline said this man was "stuck on the sidelines."

"He is not 'stuck on the sidelines.' He is free to compete against other men," Scott tweeted. "The whole 'I was astonished' act is tired and dishonest. If any competitive sport highlights the differences [between] men & women that EVERYONE KNOWS ARE REAL, it is powerlifting."

Twitter locked Scott out of his account for violating the rules against "hateful conduct."

...Greg Scott, the Heritage Foundation director, noted Twitter's inconsistent application of its "hate speech" principles.

"As troubling as it is for Twitter to ban someone for referring to a man as a man, its wildly inconsistent treatment of people and viewpoints raises even more questions. Chew on this: Louis Farrakhan and Hamas have active Twitter pages. Meghan Murphy and I don’t," he said.

"Even though Twitter is a private company, its quick-trigger ban-finger when it comes to even the most mainstream viewpoints is a window into the soul of the Left when it comes to the free exchange of ideas," Scott argued. "What happened to me demonstrates why bills like the so-called Equality Act are so dangerous. Twitter can only banish me from its website. The Orwellian Equality Act will equip a radical movement with the sword of federal law to enforce ideological conformity across the country in every area of life."
