This is primarily a story of government working against political enemies.[/quote]

That is the primary invented story. Reality has not lived up to it. The Twitter Files are turning out to be a bigger bellyflop than the Durham investigation.

Before you said Twitter wasn't biased and was following their policies.  It was FBI that told them to be on the lookout for hacked materials and disinformation.
Even though they had the laptop for a year and knew it wasn't hacked.

So was Twitter censoring it due to their own bias, or because of FBI advice?[/quote]

Taibbi's tweets are a bit hard to follow but this part is reasonably clear:

No government involvement in the laptop story. I.E. the story was not blocked due to FBI advice.

The decision was made by Twitter employees.
