      Maybe they were hoping corporate media wouldn’t notice or wouldn’t cover it, and that social media algorithms would squelch it if anyone outside corporate media noticed it. Maybe the lower house speaker was the designated fall guy as a plan B.

      It could be that the libs are just so high on their own supply at this point that they genuinely did not understand how anyone could possibly have a problem with it.

      "Russia bad, so anyone who killed Russians in any context ever good" sounds perfectly fine to them now.

          I kind of envy them in a way, reality must be so much easier to deal with if you can just ignore the fact that history didn't actually begin in february 2022.

      Well when you support Nazis, is it really that surprising that people would call you out for supporting Nazis?
