Nope. Let him die by the financial sword. A backlash is forming against Twitter, and hopefully it will grow. Twitter, Google, Facebook, Reddit, none of them are doing themselves any favors these days. Let them. But going after Twitter legally is the Fed camel's nose in the tent - and in the future, if god forbid Trump loses, or whoever is elected after his second term is a Dem, Fed oversight and regulation of social media would blow what's left of your mind away in the depth and reach of government censorship. Like, prosecuting people for things on social media. Or belonging to a site like this. Careful what you wish for, here.

Ive been jaded for 2 years now, but whats true is that in Britain they come to your house and arrest you saying something like "ok, groomer" on soci9al media to a muslim

Question all you want, but letting the Feds into the realm of private platforms and discourse almost always leads to more censorship.

Besides, giving the government power to control what Twitter does would probably require a constitutional congress to rewrite parts of it to allow for it, and I don't want the current pack of scumbags in Washington anywhere near that.

Anti-trust is not "letting the Feds [in]", it's the government upholding the law of the land. The whole point of anti-trust is to keep the market working, not government takeover of business.

It's not an anti-trust issue. I'm seriously baffled here. How is it anti-trust?

Blow back, not backlash. Getting attacked in response. We all know how these people operate, and destroy people to get their way. Like manufacturing a crisis to drive Barr from office, or blackmailing him into silence.
