If you’ve been noticing more and more ableist content online like I have, this could explain it.

    If only I could figure out who “US Political Party A” and “US Political Party B” are, then we could really get to the bottom of this.

    Fascism and bigotry in general has always been a tool used by the ruling classes for internal and external warfare. They keep it around for a reason. This is not so suprising

      All is not lost friend. Believe it or not there are people in the US who care about this shit and are actively fighting it (and by extension, you)

      When things seem to be at their darkest, look for the candles lit by your fellow man and help them to light more.

      It’s always darkest before dawn.

      We’ve known certain personalities have been russian shills for a while. What’s new is that we now know they’re PAID russian shills.

      Though, if Tim pool is to be believed, they didn’t influence his content at all. That means he would suck putin’s cock for free which is worse.

        True. I guess it’s a bit heartening to have concrete and widely known proof that the huge uptick in shitty attitudes toward certain groups has not been completely organic? Some people might think a bit more critically, maybe, with luck? These people are doing a bit for likes and money, they should be way more embarrassed than they are.
