I certainly guessed that was what you wanted to say. Funny how polarization makes everything predictable.

But what I just realized is that you don't explicitly say it, and certainly make no real argument for it. Ressa laments algorithmic promotion of inflammatory material, but didn't say "keep out anti-government subversives who spread dangerous misinformation" - which is good, because

1. We can all see how well the deplatforming worked - Trump is president again, and Kennedy is health secretary.

2. In the eyes of her government, she was very much such a person herself, so it would have been pretty bizarre thing of her to say.

Ironically, your post is very much an online "go my team!" call, and a good one too (top of the thread!). We all understand what you want and most of us, it seems, agree. But you're not actually arguing for the deplatforming you want, just holding up Ressa as a symbol for it.
