If you think you know everything you need to know about the Aug 2020 blast that destroyed half of Beirut - a blast that Human Rights Watch in a recent report calls "one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in history" - here are some things that might change your mind

Did you know that an Oct 2020 FBI report concluded only 552 tonnes of ammonium nitrate exploded on 4 Aug 2020, a FIFTH of 2,754 tonnes that arrived on a Russian-leased cargo ship in 2013 that was widely assumed from Day One to be the cause of the blast?

Did you know all those bags of "NITROPRILL HD" seen in the photos of the Beirut warehouse were NOT blasting agents? The HD means "high density" which is the way NH4NO3 is prilled for FERTILIZER! "Experts" like Jeffrey Lewis @ArmsControlWonk were wrong to suggest otherwise.

Many #BlueChecks have burner accounts that aren’t run by their PR teams. Hell, I hear Beyonce even has a secret Snapchat allegedly.
Some people make fake accounts to:
– lurk on exes/crushes/new love interests
– to anonymously troll and/or be agents of disinformation, confusion, hate, etc
– indulge in discreet #entanglements
– don’t want folks to find out about their love of BOTH scrapbooking and BDSM
The real question that I havent heard anyone ask is this #bluechecksmatter #BlueCheckTwitter fiasco just a mere test or show of power of more hacking and shenanigans to come during #Election2020 ??? #RussiaAreYouListening #FromRussiaWithLove #DumpTrump #VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare
