    "It's a three pronged attack: passive voice, active voice, and proactive voice."

    'Proactive voice?'

    "Short for active propaganda voice...it means out-and-out lying"

    Language gymnastics, when pressed they'll say it's not Iran doing airstrikes but airstrikes in Iran. Done by who? No one knows.

    I think so, poast is a nazi instance and it has a nitter instance. Nitter itself is just a software and nitter.net i haven't heard of anything controversial, it's just a flagship?

    I still average xcancel however

    xcancel is a nitter instance.

    As plinky pointed out, it's a different nitter instance called poast that is the chud one to avoid.
