It looks like they weren't just posting quotes. They often added some anti-liberal/anti-gender/etc quip. Lying in the title of an article critical of Twitter is a really bad look.
i like how everything is for looks these days
So either Twitter did not like the re-posting from LibsofTikTok which were about themselves and suspended them or they were not allowed to be too successful from using other people's posts and suspended them and admitted that was an accident.

The same thing happened to @DefiantLs [0] getting suspended by simply reposting screenshots of other people's tweets.

Oh dear.

Self owns are a different class of owns, they deserve special treatment, different rules to play by, this is Twitter after all...
It seems like the author is calling a Twitter account a "site" and at least once seems to call the Twitter account a "company".

"However, the site [@LibsOfTikTok] highlights liberals speaking about themselves and their values in their own voices. There is no explanation, which is common for the company."

Is the "company" in that quote the LibsOfTikTok account? Is that a corporate account? Do they have a website?

I also think it's poor form to not begin with the strongest explanation of what happened. The author should start out by giving Twitter's case, to the best of his ability if Twitter has not made their case public, and then explain what problems he has with Twitter's point of view. That seems to be entirely lacking from this piece.
