I wouldn't be suprised if this turns into the next "lab leak theory" in terms of censorship.

There's going to be one acceptable party line, parrotted in the media and anything else will be censored on social media as well.

There's too much at stake and the infrastructure is already there to create full on censorship for one side and non stop propaganda for the other.

I think reactions would be way different if it had been virtually any other pipeline or similar infrastructure. The Nord Streams are quite special in that everyone in the West but Germany would very strongly like them gone and even Germany isn't too thrilled about the liability they've become. If this had been an attack on important transmission lines, there would be much much larger outcry.

Which examples of extremely high-stakes geopolitical meddling are you using to form that idea of normality from?

Normally we only find out long after said meddling, and what is referred to directly as terrorism is usually done so because it was committed someone easily classified as a terrorist.

If a Canadian pipe was destroyed it was obviously ecoterrorists
