Not weighing in on Twitter's decision, but Helen Joyce's tweet makes Ray Blanchard seem more influential, supported, and prominent in the psychological field's understanding of gender dysphoria than he actually is.
His theories and models about transgender people (read: just transgender women) are not supported by the field of psychology today and are extremely antiquated.

That's no reason to censor him. Nowadays, a lot of folks seem to consider diverging opinions an infectious disease which must be quarantined immediately.
