"Duped" doing more lifting than a pallet jack here.
MR covering it live here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_HWnfMozwo
Edit: Tim Pool's Dad called in, and is live on that link discussing it now.
Total media blitz today on this . Every outlet pushing the same shite.
Society "How could you, [insert conservative influencer]? I'd never lend my name to Russian talking points."
Conservative influencer "Oh! They drove a dump truck full of money up to my house. I'm not made of stone!"
What a surprise! Not.
"Duped". Is a bit of a stretch
They knew
Johnson is an outspoken Trump supporter and internet personality who was fired from BuzzFeed after the company found evidence he’d plagiarized other works.
This is interesting. I never liked the guy. Could never put my finger on exactly why, but he always seemed fishy to me.
People found over 40 plagiarized articles.
Once the pop culture listicles grift gave up, seems like he fired up the conservative pro Russian one.
Because conservatives are fundamentally uncurious weirdos who prove the worthlessness of an unexamined life for the rest of us.
Interesting how all these paid actors are right wingers, to believe Lemmy Russian bot hawks, the bot accounts are all fake leftists and tankies
Ah, good old "two different things can't both be true!" deflection.
Why would they limit themselves to serve propaganda only to left wingers when they can also serve propaganda to right wingers. And centrists, and fascists and tankies and anarchists. I'm pretty sure they're trying with the full political spectrum.
