This claim is false.

Law enforcement has the ability to get stored communications from companies like Twitter under 18 USC 2703(d). This is a famous "d-order" that has to be signed by a judge.

A big tent is a good thing, but some people need to be disinvited from the start.

Integrating liberatory and intersectional praxis and language into your work helps invite marginalized people in, and Nazis (and other reactionaries) out.
