Putinist Russia and the Western far-right are two cheeks of the same arse. Ultra-conservative, ultra-nationalist, hellbent on stirring up culture wars and spreading false information.

hey! just like the us have been doing to other countries for decades!
ironic if true.
Weird downvotes. Truth hurts I suppose.
Secretly?
Shit, I'm from the UK and I don't know a single person here that doesn't already know that the Conservatives in the US are infested with russian mouth pieces.
Horribly kept secret if you can even call it one.
This seems like kind of a poorly kept secret...
Weren't they bragging about it back when Trump was in office?
Yep, it went from "Better Dead Than Red" in the late 20th century to "I'd rather be Russian than be a democrat" on actual t-shirts.
Real "Socialism or Barbarian?" moment
Now do Congress
Are they gonna make these same accusations on companies and people working on behalf of Israel?
weird whattaboutism. bit beyond a caasual "accusation", they've been officially indicted. I am sure that if Israeli propagandists had been indicted, you would hear about it.
Companies should be dissolved. Men should go to prison. This is tantamount to treason
I think we should imprison the women involved as well
You'll get a bunch of headline gore followed by a DOJ that shelves this all as "unprosecutable".
In five years, Tim Poole will have a show on CNN where guest Jon Stewart recalls that he got caught taking Russian money. And we'll all get a laugh about how he did this with Crossfire to the same effect.
Secretly my ass. Anyone with a brain can see the same thing happening on Facebook, popular podcasts, and YouTube as what we see Lemmy from HB and ml.
‘an American media company’
Fucking who? Why this protection through obfuscation. Ugh
It's in the indictment: Tenet Media
The consensus (in most press) is that it's Tim Poole's company.
He's even made a statement about it. So it seems like a solid guess.
We have implemented this new thing called clickbaiting. How do you like it so far?
They do in the article. It's Tenet, Dave Rubin, Dim Fool, and a third person are also named.
I’m just frustrated they use this technique to drag people into the article. Maybe I just wanna see the company and if I’d heard of it before.
This reads like a Baptist minister discovering a boyfriend his daughter's room, and then losing his shit like the boyfriend hadn't been invited in. "How could you dupe my sweet, innocent political party with your seductive money and influence!"
"Secretly" lmao
Come on now. Worst kept secret in politics.
Unsurprising news from anyone with half a brain cell...
Secretly?! 🤣👌🏼
"worms it's way into"? Boy, you're late, that worming has been done ages ago. It laid its eggs, and they did hatch already.
