In a sense though it really does erase them. Online discourse is the main mode of public discourse today. If every conservative voice was banned, people would begin to toe the new left-liberal line in a hot minute because most of them would feel socially pressured to acquiesce to the new order.
This is how the Dems and the left elite think it works, but it doesn't. Observe how they keep repeating things like Russiagate that have been disproved (or at least lacked sufficient conclusive proof despite years of trying to find it) or that the economy is really shit, with NO objective proof for it except vague claims of misery and suffering (it's not working for EVERYONE, the average worker is HURTING) that runs COUNTER to actual objective evidence those very people have presented to them every morning when they wake up and go to work, or do their taxes.
So to reconsider what I said earlier, about how they think banning right-leaning voices from the discussion will make actual rightist sentiment go away, it's because they must think that for every "1" of them, a correct-thinking progressive, there are 1 or 2 evil regressive, racist, Republicans, and , 20 or so dumb people who don't GET that Republicans are evil, and believe that as long as they can freely encounter those evil ideas, could accidentally believe them to be good ideas since they lack enough innate intelligence to think for themselves...
