the double-standards are stupid: countries in the Middle East block social media - bad; Brazil blocks X - good.

That sounds like a massive oversimplification. Why are these countries blocking or banning social media platforms? How do their citizens feel about the decisions? Those are the things that should be focused on, not boring American culture war shit.
