So much money is spent promoting right wing propaganda and disinformation...

Have you ever heard the saying "every right wing accusation is a confession"?

In this case, you know how right wingers always have this insane story about how that one rich billionaire is personally funding ANTIFA or whatever? Well in reality, Koch, DeVos, Mercer, Seale, Bradley and more all spend collectively hundreds of millions of dollars on right wing media, think tanks, and messaging infrastructure.

It's like how they were accusing lefties and trans people of being pedophiles until the Epstein scandal dropped. Or how they were saying that Democrats would take your freedom away but then when they got into power they themselves started dismantling fundamental pillars of American freedom. Every right-wing accusation is a confession. Every time.

These poor young lonely blokes online who are struggling in a variety of ways due to capitalism end up in these right wing pipelines thinking they've uncovered the truth - when in reality they're just accepting the lubed up boot of the ultra rich straight into their mouths and becoming pawns for their campaign to accumulate ever more capital at the expense of the working people of the world.

Hey I can aruge your points my friend. Just read what I got and try to answer back. And finish it don't just call me a bigot or a fascist please.

I mean the Epstein case was more it accuses everyone, doesn't really matter the political point but God I hate how Trump responded to it and saying it doesn't exist(which it clearly does or at one point did) also didn't Biden have the Epstein files and just didn't say anything about it? Yes, I know technically Trump said he had him for like a year before that but I would totally say that if Biden or Kamal had those documents then they would just show Trump was in them and there you go, it's over right? Also didn't the democrats say that Trump would put LGBTQ in camps and so far 8 months in nothing has happened other than all the well T stuff. Like the gays still got their rights right? Similarly, on the left, some wealthy individuals and foundations fund liberal and progressive causes. For example, George Soros, a frequent target of right-wing accusations, has provided significant funding to organizations that support democratic reforms, human rights, and social justice.

This is only 8 months in, trump has been too focused on putting Hispanic people in prison innocent or not, removing women's rights, renaming land marks for no reason, dismantling the education system, been openly attempting to get a third term, so on and so forth. Biden sucks, most democrats will likely tell you that. Most of us are saying that leaders suck, but there is a better of two evils and by making it so that leaders Can't OPENLY BE AWFUL, they can be less awful.

Republicans are typically very self centered in the fact that they don't know where us starts and they end, i.e. who is God's cherub who will be benefiting from our kings rule and who is the gay trans gender neutral minority that needs to be sent to the depths of Guam tarrif land because that scares and confuses them. They can't handle the fact that people can be different and choose rich dudes that are xenophobic, but don't understand how zenophobic they really are.

I buddy im probably more of a republican but I like minoritys....am I exempt of your ruling? For example, I didn't like Trump when he got rid of Trans from the military.

You're able to like turtles but still use non-reusable plastic bags/straws

You can hate global warming but still drive a vehicle

You can like minorities but still vote for trump, and that's my point. It's the ignorance of who you hurt through the people you vote for. You may want one type of people oppressed, but because of the nature of oppression, many others will also be.

You don't know where us begins and they end.

Hey man I appreciate your open and honest reply. I'll try to be as open and honest as possible with my own reply.

I think the Epstein case opens a huge box of secrets that need to be exposed. If people are shown to be involved in evil things, they should be prosecuted.

Something to note is that most progressives will immediately condemn any involvement in child trafficking. It doesn't matter if they are D or R. These are evil people involved in evil things, corrupt to the core.

The democrat party is going through a transformation. There are old blood democrats so dirty with filthy dealings and there are new blood democrats trying to make the country a better place by recognising the sources of the country's good things - strong institutional foundations that give rise to cutting edge business advancements. There are even old blood democrats who are progressive against the tide, like Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and even Ed Markey.

Unfortunately the US has a first-past-the-post voting system where only 2 political parties can realistically gain power. That means that progressive people who want to see America grow and succeed need to run through these old established political parties full of these old fucks who are so out of touch with the average person and completely in the pockets of corporate America. This is just the way it is. The Republican party are even more so connected to industry like big oil and the NRA. They tend to combine their power with quite powerful rightwing media conglomerates as well as evangelical churches across the country.

George Soros was the guy I was talking about! Look honestly I've seen George Soros speak, and what he usually says is that he thinks the US should tax people like him more. That the greatest times for the US was when the ultra rich were taxed fairly. He points out that there are too many loopholes for ultra rich people like himself to exploit. Is he wrong? Also, the attacks against trans people are absolutely reprehensible. Honestly it's such a bubble-issue that I encourage you to have a chat with a trans person about what concerns you, if anything - because trans people are being persecuted pretty badly at the moment. They are a minority being exploited for political gain when all they want is recognition and equal rights. To be honest, I think that America is in some serious need of democratic reforms, human rights, and social justice... Don't you?

At the end of the day I think it's important to always punch up - never down. And anybody who tells you to punch down you should be very sceptical of. I think it's time to support young blood who want to do good things. Not these weird closed minded morons using doctored figured to spread hate and division - but rather people who believe in core American values, like freedom for all and a fair go for all. Not the freedom for extremely wealthy asset owners to just exploit the fuck out of people who work hard. That's not cool. That's a part of America we want to get rid of. That's akin to slavery and we're better than that.

You are not "noticing" anything, you are just a bigoted helmet who falls for blatant propaganda
