Apparently @twitter is preventing anyone from posting a link to this story about some political scandal in the USA.
I assume that the justification will be that it contains inaccurate claims/fake news.

And of course, just by "coincidence", all the negative claims against the unfashionable political side are fine to post, but negative claims about the fashionable party and the fashionable candidate are fake news and need to be censored - for the greater good, of course.
NYPost claims that Twitter and Facebook claimed that it is banned due to the use of "hacked materials". https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/facebook-twitter-block-the-post-from-posting/
NPR is also running this story: https://www.npr.org/2020/10/14/923766097/facebook-and-twitter-limit-sharing-new-york-post-story-about-joe-biden

Did you know that politicians are corrupt? Wow!
