The subject is "oppressive regimes which negatively impact the politics of other countries for their own gain" - and the USA is definitely on-topic in that regard.

Selective outrage over political machinations that don't originate from within your own political in-group is also a common tactic - when you've run out of good faith, arguments or otherwise ..

Nope, the subject is "Twitter controlling the discourse is different than the Russian government controlling the discourse", nothing to do with what you're trying to deflect to. Try to focus on that.

Twitter, an American company, attempts to control the discourse - just as most other American media companies attempt to control the discourse, in order to deflect from attention on American's gargantuan list of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Twitter is just one in a long line of goose-stepping corporations doing the bidding of the military-industrial-pharmaceutical complex which stands to profit greatly from its efforts ..

That's a load of rubbish that you've either made up, or swallowed without thinking.

Its the truth. You are being distracted by scary orange puppets and useless news, while the armed forces of the 5-eyes nations have been doing their best to get World War 3 started.

Pay attention. The war is coming your way whether you like it or not.

Please don't use HN for flamewar like this. It's tedious and you're breaking the site guidelines.

You just can't stick to the topic, can you? You seem to have specific obsessions that you feel the need to drag into the discussion. Get some fresh air and try behaving like an adult.

Please don't cross into personal attack like this, regardless of how wrong someone else is or you feel they are. It makes this place worse and, assuming you're right, discredits the truth.
