Twitter files are mostly a tool for Elon Musks policy. Wiki entry shows enough of why they are problematic. The Hamilton 68 controversy isn't a big thing like you are pretending. If anything their database was misunderstood. https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-hamilton-68-russian-online-influence-tracker-2023-2?op=1

Glad to see the first comment in this chain being one calling out the usage of the Twitter files as a serious supporting point for anything but a point of deflection by Mr "I don't use pr firms".

Immediately emptied out a salt shaker on how I viewed everything else in the original comment :| homie thinks the Twitter files are relevant.. ehhh I probably don't have much interest or respect in any of their other opinions

Here’s my heuristic for whether to take someone seriously: How’s the weather in Kekistan?

guess I'm being downvoted by the tinfoil hats in here anyway. Same as the twitter users, it's often not bots that are the problem but rather dumb people :-(
