All the left-leaning Bernie supporters left, the only people still there are the Cumtown type Bernie supporters who only liked him because he hates (((the elites))) and they like the idea of free healthcare
yeah I am considering not bothering making marxist posts there because the writing is on the wall
why tf does a financial blog have a tyler durden profile pic? These people are parodies of themselves
"You are not the contents of your wallet"
Makes a site about increasing the contents of their wallets
The head mod of that subreddit is a complete quack. Promotes ivermectin all the time, and when you counter their bullshit, they just repeat talking points.
Just look at this bullshit in the replies to that comment here
"The real covid cure is free range artisanal ketchup taken on every orifice every hour on the hour."
That's the kind of content I come here for, so someone else is a lib besides just me.
Send me your ketchup enema DIY kit, I keep getting shit ketchup everywhere.
When the fuck did r/WayOfTheBern become right wing? :astronaut-2: :astronaut-1: Always has been.
TBH I never followed all the Bernie subs that closely, but I hear WoTB has always been a little... bad.
I feel like it started off as mostly meme, and we all know where that leads on stormfront
Fuck, you just reminded me this sub exists:
https://old.reddit.com/r/Kossacks_for_Sanders/
I used to hang there after the S4P sub got set to Hillary Mode; it was a weird place but eventually led me to Chapo and ultimately here. Not to deny I have :brainworms: , but the ones in old Bernie subs have a much darker energy to the ones here
Probably not :cringe:
Please excuse the :LIB: shit - if I remember correctly, it was a reference to the Daily Kos. The sub was founded by people who used to read it and were upset at the anti-Bernie coverage that Markos led.
I love how their movie brains can only operate in broad, dramatic tropes. When making up bullshit, its like they have bo choice but to always go with the most outlandish option. It's why their villains are the busiest in the world- no delegating, that would be too anticlimactic. Fauci personally paid for the creation of Corona. (In CHYNAH, don't forget about CHYNAH, folks) Why? What does he gain? Who cares! He's the figure liberal media are holding up as a hero, therefore he's actually the bad guy from XXX with a missile full of evil green juice who must be beaten up on top of a submarine by you, the viewer.
I cant quite articulate it, but I'm seeing a wonderful cross-section of lib-fash ideological anatomy. Reverse Great Man theory, cognitive dissonance (you can safely bet that these people are anti maskers, despite their professed belief that covid is a chinese bio-weapon, so i guess they just love 2 die), a little dash of stabbed-in-the-back-myth, and the projection of the viruses likely origins in Maryland (probably unknowing, but still a conditioned response.)
Bernie burned his fans badly not once, but twice. No surprise his base deserted him.
Even AOC has been overcome by the establishment. Electoralism looks like a loser. Again.
I looked into this a bit. Zerohedge is a murky place, although they have some good articles about the economy. (Here's their article in question). Their main (and only) point of reference is The Intercept's article "New Details Emerge About Coronavirus Research at Chinese Lab" so the gist is that Wuhan lab's work on bats was sponsored by a US company, according to FOIA-obtained documents (quoting the Intercept here):
Newly released documents provide details of U.S.-funded research on several types of coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. The Intercept has obtained more than nine hundred pages of documents detailing the work of the EcoHealth Alliance, a U.S.-based health organization that used federal money to fund bat coronavirus research at the Chinese laboratory. The trove of documents includes two previously unpublished grant proposals that were funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, as well as project updates relating to the EcoHealth Alliance’s research, which has been scrutinized amid increased interest in the origins of the pandemic.
The documents were released in connection with ongoing Freedom of Information Act litigation by The Intercept against the National Institutes of Health. The Intercept is making the full documents available to the public.
“This is a roadmap to the high-risk research that could have led to the current pandemic,” said Gary Ruskin, executive director of U.S. Right To Know, a group that has been investigating the origins of Covid-19.
BIG EDIT:
This doesn't mean that this is good info. On the one hand, the US does have/sponsor all kinds of shady bio-labs around the world [ x , x , x ] and who knows wtf is happening there. On the other, Chinese media have started pushing for an investigation of the Fort Diedrich (MD) re this whole coronavirus thing as a push-back against the "China-virus" narrative, so FOIA or no it can be more misinfo to counter that and re-center Wuhan. It's all media wars at this point as far as I am concerned, with very tentative connection to reality.
I remember Zerohedge did some decent debunking of Russiagate during the early Trump presidency. The blog has right-wing brainworms and its ideology is all over the place, but I don't completely write it off because it seems to occasionally do some decent anti-establishment reporting.
I'm actually glad that people are looking into Fauci and the EcoHealth Alliance stuff because I'm Ft. Detrick-pilled and I think it's the right thread to pull on. Wuhan was likely gathering viruses from Chinese bats to be studied by Ralph Baric in North Carolina. [1]
The Chinese were actually pointing the finger at Ft. Detrick long before the Wuhan lab-leak theory was being hyped in Western media.
Upbear to everything you wrote. If I remember correctly, Zerohedge published an article not so long ago accusing Fauci of lying because he kept saying on the TV that the pandemic would be over by the X date, then by the X1 date, then X2 etc etc (they aren't wrong, he did keep naming all those dates), so I assume that that's how he ended up in that title, even though this has little to do with him personally, he's just a govt functionary pacifying the masses.
Those dates were assuming people actually listened to the public health advice, would be my guess.
and it's together with the naked capitalism guy. fuck some bad shit is bubbling under the surface of this god forsaken hellworld. 2024 is gonna be lit fam.
the news of the demise of the civil war may have been premature.
What's this supposed to mean, that Fauci did corona and that it came from a lab in Wuhan?
Faucci was the head of a thing, that thing gave a grant to another thing, some or all of the grant money was spent by the Wuhan lab on gain of function research.
So basically making a guy in charge of an org responsible for "some underlings buying drugs with petty cash" type situation.
I know it’s fun to dunk on the idiots but taken along with the lies about masks, the changes to case count process after Biden took office and a bunch of other stuff that makes the us covid response seem politically motivated rather than health motivated, this doesn’t look like some kooky conspiracy shit, it truly seems like we can’t trust our public health apparatus.
:yea:
And it makes it fucking impossible to talk to anybody who already doesn't share your opinion on the issue because they can always point to the dip shits and their dip shittery and I just have to agree with them. The people who keep winding up in "charge" seem to be the least competent to do actual work other than ascending the ladder of power.
I guess a better take would be to pick your battles and give yourself permission to fail or know when its time to go outside and touch some grass.
I'm constantly realizing that I've stuck my hands in a hornet's nest and deciding that its time to back off.
Do you have any background on them that you could share? Their tweets are constantly making the rounds on various stock market subreddits.
Not in detail but I know they got a lot of notoriety during/after the 2008 crisis, LARP as Tyler Durden, and like to post headlines and theories that are frequently adjacent to that right-wing crank crowd
anything led by a white guy will necessarily also have droves of mayos offended at anything other than a white guy
