Oh. Ad hom.

You can't answer the simple question of which is the basis of most of your argument in this thread.

Answer the question. Is Tim Pool "commentator 2" or not?

Yesterday Tim provided a pretty emphatic defense of himself effectively saying that these Cia...I mean Russian payments to Tenant were made without his knowledge.

How naive are you? On a scale of 1 to 10.

Those stories are interesting as well. Everyone things I'm playing team politics but I'm not. This story is funny and involves YouTubers that I have watched off and on over the years.

This story grabbed my attention due to the YouTuber angle. The story is wild that none of them seemed to question where all this money came from or whether it was legit.

Will be interesting to see if anything further develops from this indictment.

Lauren Chen has already had her career nuked -- lost her YouTube channel and Blaze contract.

Just Russia? I can just about guarantee that these same e-celebs took money from another specific foreign nation.

Curious why this is such a big deal when we have reps such as Swallwell that have relationships with known Chinese spies and nothing of significance happens to him.

The basis of my thread was to link the indictment and laugh at Chen and the gang for falling for this silly gay op from a Russian dude.

Calm down, dude.

Okay --- let the story play out. The simple fact is Tim is linked to this story. You can stop sweeping and just let the facts come out.

Such a double standard as that is chump change compared to what China and likely Israel spend(with US taxpayer money) on propaganda here

Another classic lie promoted by those who support every authoritarian position possible against the "far right". Chilli plays this card too when he posts. Moderate, but always pushes the groomer narrative and cheers when those he disagrees with are silenced/jailed.

Look at the OP's sarcastic pic under his name. Definitely a groomer that is beyond excited at the prospect of his enemies being jailed over speech he doesn't agree with.

They are all the same and push the same "moderate" lie. At least folks like Mick, VOR, Ridder have the balls to tell you that they support this and look forward to your downfall.

I may be wrong about this, but as long as one registers as an agent of a foreign county, one can take foreign money and spread foreign propaganda.

The key is registering as a foreign agent.

Were the Youtubers good boys who dindu nuffin wrong and were duped or did they know the money from Tenet was dirty?

Very odd premise, isn't it? Are you aware of your employer's funding sources?

No, I much prefer our own government ruling party threatening and coercing influences to censor content with the explicit goal of influencing our elections and policy.

And I always believe the DOJ and MSM when they cry Russian collusion.

The indictment is for violating FARA, not that foreign money is bad.
