That was like reading something partly in a foreign language, I don't pretend to understand a lot of it.
A few points though:
1. A twitter post doesn't equal factual reporting
2. Nor does a short article in a fringe publication
3. Bullies and arsehats exist in all walks of life but thrive in the anonymity of the internet and being able to access social media echo chambers with like minded douches.
if it is true that someone was essentially bullied to death because they were autistic and identified as non-binary, that's sad.

I fail to see what benefit twitter has for society. Give 5 good things and I will find 10 bad ones.
I mean who gives a shit what you had for lunch and what concerts you went to.

I'm passingly familiar with KiwiFarms, and yes, it's an absolute sewer. Not sure exactly what the site is or what its links to likeminded places like 4chan are, but the platform seems to exist primarily to harass, doxx and bully people, and we do need to ask if our commitment to a free internet needs to extend to permitting these kinds of activities.

I've never been a free speech absolutist (happy to be shown anywhere that I've indicated otherwise). Not saying these people can realistically be brought to heel, or that any relevant laws could be passed without bringing about too many negative side effects elsewhere, but I certainly think the possibility should be investigated.

free speech is an illusion. Even the internet isn't completely open.
