Do you think it is possible for a platform (like retrospring, for example) to be truly socially/politically neutral?

No because morality and politics are too closely interrelated. For example condoning acts of genocide in the name of white nationalism is a politically held belief as well as something abhorrently amoral. This is why Republicans think Google or Twitter are out to get them, rather than question their disgusting views on things it's the fault of the arbiter, according to them.

It's definitely possible, but neutrality and other things like that often are tough to keep up because if the boundary is not the general consensus of people, it more than often enough is law.

Nah, in some way or another everything is political, and 'keep politics out of school/work/sports' is usually shorthand for 'I don't like/agree with the politics I just heard' anyway the bigger a platform gets, the more politically engaged it will have to be - sometimes dragged kicking and screaming into it

No. We all are different and for that happening we should keep our opinions to ourselves... I don't see that happening. We come to those sites for some reason.
