One shouldn’t be surprised at the dual standards of censorship Twitter adopts for the home country (US) and “third-world” countries like India. Since it’s not bad to use work terms on the wokes, this is institutional racism.
Countries like India need to be taught what free speech is. An incident where a non-national flag is forcibly planted on a symbol of authority is dissent whereas the exact same thing in US is insurrection. The ones who abetted the former are dissidents while the later are banned

One can write a book on institutional racism. For instance, this. The implied slur that India is fudging its covid numbers, a slur backed by no data in the piece. It’s inconceivable why dead bodies are piling up without space to bury them in “liberal” LA while India does so well
Why is US doing such a terrible job? Let’s take a simple example. A friend in LA went to India over the winter for a wedding. To enter India, he had to show a “within 2 days” covid negative test which was reviewed at entry. When he came back to US, there was no US test.
How the hell can you contain spread when you let random infected people enter? The reason people aren’t tested in US is because airline companies aren’t willing to spend the extra money. Of course Trump was in their pocket. Biden has proposed it but massive pushback
And yet the WaPos of the world, with their racism, will imply that India is fudging the numbers rather than acknowledge that its the indian government that’s doing a better job than theirs.
