"Twitter is shit at ML and doesn't want to pay human mods," seems like a compelling alternative. But yeah, it's not exactly looking great.

Does anyone have an explanation for this that isn't twitter explicitly silencing people who stand against concentration camps? Because it sure looks like twitter is explicitly silencing people who stand against concentration camps.

I don't know what "ML" is. I'd be surprised if anyone else does. Please don't use abbreviations when you don't have to. I just want to divine the essential meaning of your tweets without jumping through hoops.

Fair enough. Machine learning. A lot of content moderation is programmatic, looking for e.g. keywords. This software is notoriously error prone (I've worked on some of it, albeit not in a censorship context) and e.g. will target activist orgs when they directly quote racists.
