Erhm. Am I not getting something?
It IS in the trending topics: http://imgur.com/QxuqV
Is the story here that they are censoring something or that they are not? Because if it were the latter, I'd be sad. Do we assume that for social networks to censor communications on recent politically grave events is the default now?
The story is:
* nothing was censored
* it just wasn't showing as a trending topic
* Twitter is probably just having stupidity in their system (as usual)
* somebody wanted to get lots of clicks
* somebody wrote an inflammatory blog post
* HN upvoters fell for it
