Corporate media supports fascism for tax cuts and deregulation. Their woke shit was only ever marketing.

Copros are always follow the profit, what else is new. When the pressure was on being "woke", they were "woke". That means we need to continue do pressure. Or did anyone thought corporations are people and have feelings?

Kim Iversen has always been clueless. Didn't realize Tulsi Gabbard was full of it back when she was running for office.

Americans have been flooded with lots of news.

Report is tend to based on verifiable facts, returned victims are inconvenient to verify.

Americans are simply new to this phenomenon and don’t know how to interpret/imagine. In a few generations, when trump dynasty is over, we will see documentaries about how this works systematically and what news have reported are just tip of the iceberg.

@JeSuisUnHombre

It's not long since this guy from Norway was detained for several hours while security went thru his social media accounts

They found an old meme presenting J.D.Vance as a bald baby

Then they sent the guy back to Norway...

However....

If they spend even five minutes going thru any of MY accounts, then I will most likely NOT be returned to Norway. Instead they'll just "lose me" somewhere near the southern parts of Cuba...

So, no... I'm not going anywhere near USA! 😄

@JeSuisUnHombre Reminds me when talking with someone about their dream to visit Disney: "no way, unless you are talking about Disney Paris or Tokyo". To be fair, I guess both are still bad choices as those still means supporting the USA and it's current administration, so next time I should recommend a theme park from a non-USA based company.
