Babe wake up, new red scare just dropped
We get final warnings, red scares, and so many other throwbacks. This generation really has no originality
We’re trapped in the boomer fever dream still
It started in 2014 with the Maidan coup, and escelated in 2015 with the endless RUSSIA RUSSUA RUSSIA crap.
New?
I don’t see Hexbear on that list. We are officially right wing! Woooo.
Why would the US government wants to persecute the most renowned fedposters on Lemmy?
We are Russian and Qatar funded, not CCP
Hah! Weak Hexbear! We lemmygrads are funded by the DPRK.
I thought it was soros
Same thing really
I thought that was me
We are liberals after all
comrades doing it right, then.Huh… so they don’t care about the DSA?
Hmmmmm

THE FIX IS IN
FAIR.org with a takedown of the original NYT article about Singham from two years ago
Rubio was mad about it:
So it should come as no surprise that the piece has led to a call for a federal investigation into those Singham-funded nonprofits. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) sent a letter to the Justice Department citing the Times article and arguing that the groups, including the antiwar organization Code Pink and the socialist think tank Tricontinental, “have been receiving direction from the CCP [Chinese Communist Party].” Rubio concluded, “The CCP is our greatest adversary, and we cannot allow it to abuse our open system to promote its malign influence any longer.”
Sigh:
If you think China is evil and Communists are the devil—as you might, if you read US corporate news media (FAIR.org, 5/15/20, 4/8/21)—this sounds like important reporting on a dangerous man. The trouble is, there’s nothing illegal about any of this. All the Times succeeds in proving in this article is that Singham puts considerable money, amassed by selling a software company, toward causes that promote positive views of China and are critical of hawkish anti-China foreign policy, which is his right as an US citizen. If you were to replace “China” in this tale with “Ukraine,” it’s hard to imagine the Times assigning a single reporter to the story, let alone putting it on the front page.
Hey, maybe a ghoulish Republican openly frothing about China hopefully results in the libs disentangling themselves from Sinophobic fearmongering? Big cope i know but
The odds are much better that they simply agree with him with the whole ‘broken clock right twice a day’ shtick
That’s why they have the NYT write these ridiculous reports. This way the libs can eat the whole thing up, just like the Pompeo story about the “debt trap” in Sri Lanka.
Liberals will be wearing swastika armbands and sieg-heiling before they even think about dropping the China bullshit
Same congress person meeting with CIA on the same day.

Same congress person on Fox News discussing the documents filed.
They really made the CIA building look /that/ comically evil, huh?
when even the decor screams white supremacy.
Damn, even more reason to like Code Pink
i think they confronted (verbally
) trumpo in a restaurant a week ago, so now getting got for ruining his dinnerWe need a vanguard party for Code Pink and Palestine Action
More like twitter handle rotations, organization names are obviously will soon be illegal (finding pal action latest is hard, for example)
He was so mad about that he ranted to the press pool one day about how “nasty” they were
PYM was also involved
‘Fun’ fact: NYT red scare bs reporting two years ago about the same person resulted in the Indian Government using equivalent laws (and some worse ones) against a left-wing news org.
HUAC 2-ah

Fuck. Just as the PSL started picking up steam.
not a coincidence
ain’t gonna stop us
I hope so. It stopped things during the Red Scare. I hope the US left has learned something since the 50’s and 60’s.
Highest vote they’ve ever gotten last presidential election, 168k. Not bad considering they weren’t on the ballot in 11 states

So how long until the feds mandate and enforce greeting in the equivalent of Heil Hitler?
“Please drink from Verification Can to salute the president.”
I mean, my favourite war show makes an excellent mockery of that, which I’ll admit to laughing at, but I definitely won’t be able to laugh as much at a modern equivalent.
and whats that show named
Epstein List.
We need a new Wolfenstein game where the big bad is Joseph McCarthy instead of Hitler.
We do. And like older videogames, where you could kill the big bad and continuity was irrelevant, none of that new “timeline matters” stuff where you can’t kill Hitler because he’ll show up in the next game.
Right now I really want to kill McCarthy in a graphic and gross manner, “exploding Nazis” war movie style.
Daily reminder that in one of the new Wolfenstein’s Hitler canonically shoots Ronald Reagan
