  • That is all fair. Social ostracization or rejection from voters is fine, and in many (if not most) cases warranted.

    But I think that is drastically different than calling for all Nazis to be jailed or executed, as some on the left would suggest. It's a pretty bad loophole, as if there's anyone or any movement you want to get rid of, all you have to do is call them Nazis, and into the incinerator they go.

  • You do not give tolerance to intolerance.

    This is the type of rhetoric I'm talking about. Call someone intolerant and you can do whatever you want to them. "Punch a Nazi!", etc.

    The irony of this story going viral in this community specifically is astronomical.

  • The idea that doing something with someone who turns out to be a foreign asset makes you a conspirator is a bit ridiculous. I don't see anyone in this community accusing Kathy Hochul of being a Chinese asset since she's a Democrat, but accusing her of that would be ridiculous too. She probably didn't know that her aide was a Chinese agent.

  • Join the resistance! Fight big business! Brought to you by Yelp.

  • They told the personalities they were Russian? That's news to me.

    But yes, it looks like you're right, i wouldn't call them a news organization per se since they focus more on punditry but The Blaze did fire her (https://barrettmedia.com/2024/09/05/theblaze-terminates-contract-of-lauren-chen-after-doj-reveals-she-worked-for-russian-propaganda-operation/)

    Idk if those two and the other useful idiots broke any laws though

    I feel like it makes sense to charge anyone who was in on or knew about the scheme, and I'm pretty sure Lauren Chen counts as one of those figures.

  • Did Musk take a thing we all loved and smash it? Pretty much.

    Haha! I love seeing left wingers pretend that X didn't have these problems before Elon Musk took over lol

  • It's been awhile since we've had a GOP candidate who's not Trump but Trump has received a lot of donations with sub-$500 averages before

  • Musk tipped off Putin to troop movements.

    I'm sorry, this made me laugh. Is that a widely accepted conspiracy theory in this community? That Elon Musk is a Russian spy?

  • I understand wanting to intervene but I agree, this seems like an overreach. A more reasonable federal approach would be to have these folks investigated for violations of federal law, which I doubt the FBI is interested in doing in this case.

  • I have both those podcasts in my app so I'll see if I can find the story in their most recent episodes. Thanks!
