Yes, a strange fellow.

In my experience there is a group of people in society that are unable to assimilate and fully understand arguments that involves more than one or two pieces of information. Once you go beyond that it is hard for them to come to a logical conclusion. As a result they are vulnerable to the most spurious propositions and they become easy prey to scammers, hackers, conspiracy theorists and bad investment advisers. Should these people be protected by censoring fake information from the parasites that prey on them? Under normal circumstances probably not entirely. However in the current climate there is an existential threat from a psychopath with nuclear weapons. He has a proven history of asymmetric warfare involving widespread dissemination of outright lies on social media. YouTube, Facebook and TikTok have banned Russian media in the EU. About time Australia named and shamed a few of the sites giving oxygen to these traitors.
