Geopolitics

One meta-note on the situation, is that in my timeline I have seen exactly zero non-western people defending Durov's arrest, but quite a few western people.

Definitely don't want to say that they don't exist (after all, my timeline is biased just like anyone's), just this is what my sample is so far.

IMO this is another example of the decoupling of liberalism and westernism that https://x.com/MacaesBruno often talks about.

There’s always choice of opinions 

But candidly, d’you support his arrest? If we’re to judge by the French’s display during the Olympics opening ceremony?
