    What a bad actor. And people are supposed to buy that someone who makes a living consuming and regurgitating political narratives can’t pronounce the acronym of one of the most notorious lobbies in the country? Hahahaha

      Doesn’t Pakman normally have a kind of dry sense of humor and mispronounces stuff regularly? Seems like a poorly advised joke on how Trump would talk about this tbh.

    NGL kinda mixed feelings on the whole dnc dark money thing

    Like on one hand party support of independent media is one of the really strong and dangerous things about the right wing, both through money and connections. A little bit of that for the left would probably be good, and from what I’ve seen at least some of the people they gave offers to were decent influencers or at the very least not like actually evil.

    The problem is the execution was so bad, I think if it was a lot more transparent to the public, less restrictive on their speech, they could actually talk about it, etc. would have made this a much better project. The same kind of sketchy, backroom dealings with insane NDAs like the right does just don’t work with the left, people care about trust and truth too much lol

      Every person on that list was a pro-Israel Zionist DNC shill who got paid to do genocide propgaganda. The contract had extreme censorship conditions and they were basically limited to spreading establishment DNC messaging. And not allowed to criticize Dems.

      They are not good people or good influencers at all. They are evil sellouts and you should never listen to anything they say.

      I am sure you would prefer I wrote a title without any context. Everything in the title is factual.

      An insult would be using his nickname “AIPACman”.

        LoL. You DNC bots aren’t even attempting to sound plausible anymore.

        This red baiting bs hasn’t worked in years. The majority of the country wants radical change. And you think now is an appropriate time to appeal to nationalism? What a joke.

          Noone should appeal to nationalism. That’s the point you aren’t getting. gl in life though
