      Wait, last when i checked they were funding people doing this, not the DPR/LPR.

      I love how on the formerly lefitst instance you can routinely read takes which are more bloodthirsty and imperialist than even the most hardcore warhawks in USA govt.

        It has its moments, but World News in particular has gone full reddit. I assume during the reddit exodus they just congregated there.

          The feds would’ve congregated there for sure, can’t have the unwashed masses getting ideas. Wouldn’t surprise me if they looked up IP address locations of the most active posters there, it would be almost 1:1 with worldnews on reddit.

        Bread at home, bombs abroad. The western leftists thought they could have both; peace and social safety nets. Once they realized they wouldn’t be given both by the capitalist class, they started bargaining for the selfish one. They will get neither.

      Our financials are so structured that money already committed won’t be withheld even if the Republicans have a tantrum and shut the government down.

      Aa yes, the US government is famous for having well-structured financials. Also everything bad is Other Team’s fault.
