Oh you mean the hotbed of racist, misogynist, Russian disinformation?

Probably by next midterms

I understand how they can pressure advertisers with their campaigns. The only thing about payment processors that makes sense is they have true believers on the inside, and terrible leadership. Who is going to boycott mastercard or visa? There are like 4 choices.

Thanks. Having read this and the emails exchanged, this drama really wasn't necessary.

Strange.

It's true believers, and contrary to popular belief, they are perfectly happy to sacrifice profits to consolidate power.

Good lord. Bruni is a stupid lush who thinks his knowledge of wine gives him license to weigh in on anything else happening in the news. A very punchable guy.

Late to this one but the funniest (best) thing is that Greenwald has been annoying as shit lately (on twitter anyway) and just got ‘canceled’ by the intercept, a place that was fully supportive of the guy. Glenn’s been a bit too angry lately. He needs a timeout. Or maybe just to go away. He wasn’t that good anyway.

Note the publication date. I still see people on Nextdoor parroting the line about insurance covering it (most recently regarding shoplifting). This in a town that already lost one retailer and is barely hanging on to a 2nd due to 'loss' issues.

Is looting just the voice of the unheard or...?

Interesting. Now that Biden won is the NYT going to start covering the reality of the "protests"?
