    Might want to double check these. I know for certain that this morning #democrats was blocked but now it’s not - and I tried your list up until #liberal and it all worked

      There are two user filters in the settings which default to the stricter hiding. Politics and sensitive content.

      Some of these might be under either of those filters and even with both set to show content some of these are hidden.

      The fact that they were blocked (even temporarily) is bad enough, even if they unblocked them because people noticed too fast.

      I’m sure they’ll continue working on more subtle ways to suppress discussions and control narrative.
