India’s ruling party has been operating a network of bots to propagate fake news about Pakistan. But they do a lousy job and clearly show links to India.
What’s worse is that the twitter employees who control moderation for Pakistan also reside in India. They frequently silence/censor Pakistanis.
I find that difficult to believe that twitter employees, regardless of where they are based would act in such a blatant manner. Is there a way to prove this? Examples of such actions or bias?
Sure. We sometimes turn off flags when the article contains substantive information and there are decent odds that HN can have a substantive conversation about it. I don't think the odds are that good with this one.
When you host the world's most dangerous place, the definition of civil war has to be rewritten.
I had classmates from Swat, very beautiful but considered the most dangerous place on earth. They said they have never seen violence, not seeing does not mean it does not exist. The most dangerous violence is one that can not be seen.
Pakistan is a country owned by the army, political assassinations are common place.
The use of religion radicalism to rally around the army is also common, first against Hindus & Sikhs, then Ahmedias and now against Shias.
Extreme violence seems pretty normal, Osama Bin Laden wasn't the only terrorist head living in plain sight in Pakistan. It is the HQ and training grounds of numerous terror groups.
Pakistan is fertile and blessed with natural beauty, their history is thousands of years old, unfortunately radical islam is squeezing the country down the drain.

Guess having a billion people online can really help make news viral. IT cell in action.
