I doubt it. I think these kind of comments are a very classic "divide and conquer" tactic.

We should not be divided, but stand behind both e/ and Graphene as perfectly good privacy defenders.

To me it reads like Graphene is saying /e/ is "actively attacking" them as a puppet of the government of France. How do you reconcile them both being perfectly good when either one is engaging in this behavior, or one is lying about it? It's okay to support both projects overall and not agree with every action they take, but that doesn't mean you have to turn a blind eye to accountability when they are making bad choices (to put it lightly). In any other project, criticism would lead to positive changes and correction of bad behavior. Because Graphene doesn't work like that, I think it's important to understand their history so that everyone is more informed when they make serious accusations about other innocent projects like this.
