The suspension of Yulia Navalnaya's X/Twitter account, the widow of Alexei Navalny who just died opposing Vladimir Putin, has sparked widespread criticism and accusations of bias towards the Russian leader. Critics, labeling Elon Musk an attention-seeker and accusing him of supporting a mass murderer, highlighted the platform's contrasting actions towards accounts criticizing Putin and those amplifying controversial figures. The incident, described as concerning, has raised concerns about the platform's policies and Musk's influence, with rules mockingly summarized as prohibiting criticism against fascist leaders, stating Musk makes the rules, and all bribes to the CEO must be paid in rubles. Musk's boldly pro-Putin stance is under scrutiny, especially after the account's temporary suspension was highlighted.

No shock that conspiracy theorist & attention-seeker @elonmusk has suspended Navalny's widow's account, for no reason. Navalny, like him or loathe him, didn't deserve to be murdered, & he at least stood up to mass murderer Putin, a dictator whom the gormless likes of Musk support https://t.co/d2hXRDllkV

Twitter, which has been actively restoring and amplifying every hate-filled, conspiratorial nutjob around, just suspended the account of Alexey Navalny's widow that just died in Russia for opposing Vladimir Putin. If only Navalny's widow had tweeted about Hunter Biden, I guess. https://t.co/MBtbmW1W5b
