Oh, lol. This though seems to be something that would affect only US models... ironically

Not sure if it’s still current, but there’s a comment saying it’s just a US location thing which is quite funny. https://github.com/community/community/discussions/72603#dis...

This is called ^ deflection.

Upon seeing evidence that censorship negatively impacts models, you attack something else. All in a way that shows a clear "US bad, China good" perspective.

Nope.

My comment was neutral on the US - I emphasized the detriment of censorship on models which is true insofar as the US censors models.

Whereas the other comment moves the goalposts from "i dont necessarily see the problem with censorship on models" when presented evidence to the contrary by attacking the US. It was never about US vs. China (to anyone else). That's the deflection.
