There is a tendency amongst those on the political extremes to:
Silence opposing voices; Push for, and sometimes implement the policing and criminalization of certain speech; Root out 'enemies' through witch-hunts and humiliation rituals or 'struggle sessions'; Enforce a conformity of ideas and opinions through the threat of ostracization, humiliation or violence. Instill a culture of fear around speech or activities contrary to the 'party line.' Amongst other things.
That's the problem with 'deplatforming.'
The crazies migrate to another platform and then that platform gets bigger and crazier and perhaps eventually competes with the original, more mainstream platforms.

There are always consequences, some more productive that others. Note that I am not claiming that progressive politics are authoritarian, only that there are authoritarian tendencies on the far left end of the progressive spectrum. I would probably class myself as progressive. Green/Labour left is probably closer.
Where one might say 'overly zealous' another might say 'authoritarian.'
