based or cringe? One one hand human right activists in these countries are using Twitter to create awareness about the local isseus. On the other hand, CIA also uses it to manufacture consent to whatever plans they got

That's pretty reductive and glosses over a whole lot of context...

Right. A tweet from the president of Nigeria was deleted by an American company. Seems like a bigger deal than some guy getting banned on twitter.

can you not ( in your mind ) Remove yourself from the Person itself -Right wing Dip Shit what ever - ,
Did you not gloriously invoce a Principle yourself : "Everyone cheering as media is Banned is a Tool" ..
There are other Principles in Game here is called "Sovereignty"
Why do you focus arrogantly on a single one .... ?
I literally don't care who he is or what his motives are. Complaining about the Nigerian government banning Twitter (he is the head of state right, it's not like this was just his personal decision like they're framing it) is pointless. More countries should ban western platforms and use other ones (does China have any that other countries could use?). Anything that gives American companies less power is good. Of course it sucks for Nigerian twitter users though.
why are you caping so hard for a fucking authoritarian who literally came to power as the result of a military coup. why is everyone on this thread taking crazypills. are there seriously people who think Buhari is a leftist? he isn't even like a half socdem half Marxist like Xi or some of the CPC people who at least seem to have their nation's interests at heart. he's an authoritarian fuckstick who violently suppresses any dissent.
talk to an actual Nigerian for once in your fucking life I swear to god
ah yes, thanks for your insight.
Except that was in the 1980s and he's currently in office as the result of elections. The country is also part of Belt and Road.
that's right, I forgot military coups are ok if they happened in the 80s. cool, I just forgave Compaore for killing Thomas Sankara! I thought he was guilty but he's not because it happened years ago. based! also every country that is in Belt and Road can automatically do no wrong because they're part of Belt and Road. excellent logic my good sir
Guess we should just overthrow them right. Let's ignore reality and start the revolution now!
