It seems like the narrative is that the older moderators were uninvolved with any of the recent events, so in order to boost their likelihood of being treated as experts by default, they decided they'd try to reduce the visibility of t

I don't know Russian law, but the idea a missile test has to be kept secret because some reindeer got spooked and the spooked reindeer trampled some people and senior military officials would go to jail for it sounds very much like an

Chaplinsky v New Hampshire found that a law forbidding abusive speech in public was Constitutional because the words in question "by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace."

The thing is, these types aren't usually complex in the way that logic is. Complex logic generally means lots of loops and conditions and such, maybe shared mutable state. Linear code that just calls a series of independent functions o
