    No. The article is just wrong. Telegram isn’t a weapon. Sharing pictures and videos is … it’s nothing like a gun or missile … It potentially educates people, certainly doesn’t hurt a soul.

    PR battles exist, but it’s metaphor. That’s the point. Don’t confuse killing with talking, please. Jesus.

    And if it weren’t Telegram, it would be Signal. Or Mastodon. Or whatever.
