> Maybe Twitter was never about being arbiters of facts and instead just pandering to the popular political narrative of the time?
To some extent they do see themselves as arbiters of truth, you can get auto-banned if you make a tweet and their AI thinks you're spreading falsehoods about COVID or the 2020 US presidential election. It actually happened to me last year over a completely benign joke and i had to wait about six weeks for a mod to get around to reviewing my appeal before i was allowed back on.
If they really cared about protecting middle-eastern activists they could add "israeli spy" to their list of phrases that get you auto-banned.
