Block Cuban Woman Account Stolen Image, Twitter Double Standard Evidence

JAKARTA - The Twitter account of a Cuban woman was blocked for no particular reason. The ban came after he protested against the UN Human Rights Commissioner who used his photo to depict "protesters" against the Cuban government. Whereas the Cuban woman admitted that she actually supports the current Cuban government.

In a tweet, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet urged the Cuban government to address the protesters' grievances amid economic hardship and called for the release of those detained for "exercise fundamental freedoms."

Bachelet used a photo of a Cuban woman holding the Cuban national flag and screaming. But it actually embarrassed Bachelet, because the Cuban was actually a supporter of the government of President Miguel Diaz Canel.

Betty Pariol Quesada posted in Spanish that she strongly condemned the use and manipulation of her images as a symbol of protest against criminals and vandals in Cuba. However, following his protests against image manipulation, US company Twitter blocked his account for "unusual activity."

Bachelet, who seems very concerned about the state of Cuba's human rights, should instead remain silent about the issue of blocking this twitter account. Even though the blocking of Quesada's account can be categorized as a human rights violation. On the other hand, Bachelet has not apologized for "stealing photos", of the Cuban woman.

It was later discovered that the UN official's Twitter account seemed to be operated by Artificial Intelligence. Accounts can, delete the problematic post, and post a new post with the same text but different images.

A comparison of the two posts sparked discontent among Twitter users, and a post demonstrating Bachelet's role as a "tool" of the US government has been retweeted 8,000 times and liked 26,000 times. Some suspect that the high commissioner works in the US government.

"Did you know that the US State Department had a secret meeting with Jack Dorsey trying to get him to buy Zunzuneo, the Cuban Twitter-style app they created for regime change?" tweet from Twitter user and senior media journalist, Alan Macleod, in a post on his twitter account.

Bachelet's use of photos of supporters of the Cuban government as protesters is similar to the incident involving the state-funded Voice of America organ.

Such image manipulation and the silence of the Western media on the issue raises the question: Are Bachelet and seemingly independent commercial news outlets really functioning as part of the US information warfare effort?

Economic difficulties in Cuba are caused by US sanctions. At the UN assembly in June, 184 countries, including the European Union, voted to urge the US to remove the sanctions. However, the US turned a blind eye to the calls of the international community, and focused solely on its agenda against China by tarnishing Xinjiang and Hong Kong.

While Bachelet himself did not attack the US indifference to the UN resolution. Instead, he reposted his tweet attacking victims of US sanctions. Is his commitment to upholding human rights being questioned? The question arises whether he stands with the US and only acts as its spokesman?
