Hit me with your best ideas!

Those liars scammed and deluded thousands of people with their “censorship complex” hoax, feeding a victim complex and giving an online faction a boogeyman to rail against.
It’s hard to explain just how much bullshit they made up. The Wikipedia article on the Twitter Files doesn’t tell the story.
