// This is a hack, a quick and dirty console script for RT/tweets (with replies) removal w/o API
// To be used in: https://twitter.com/Username/with_replies
// Set your username (without @) below (case-sensitive) to correctly trigger the right Menu
const tweetUser = 'Username'
// BUG, With above we still trigger Menu on some replies but relatively harmless.
// @Hack Implement simple has() for querySelector

return [].filter.call( document.querySelectorAll( parent ), function( elem ){
if(elem.querySelector( child ) !== null ) {
return true
}
else {
return false
}
});
}
// @Hack Implement xpath text() selector returning matching holder element
// equiv XPath //find[text()='inner']
const querySelectorInner = function( parent, inner ){
return [].filter.call( document.querySelectorAll( parent ), function( elem ){
if(elem.innerHTML == inner ) {
return true
}
else {

// Scrolling is more involved/difficult as twitter does not hide rest of the thread if reply deleted
// As work-around scroll yourself when removals hit zero. API would be best option but this solution is WEB UI driven.
